I wonder if Cheif fans complain after every win. They haven't exactly been killing it and blowing teams out of the water, they have had something like only 3 or 5 wins of 7pts or more

Back to back super bowls probably give them a little more positive outlook. History is not on our side.

That's true but I still find it interesting.

All I know is that I am enjoying this rebuilding season and look forward to how good they are going to be once the rebuild is over!

 

[Rowdie]

I'm a believer in seizing the opportunity when you can. They may not have a better chance at winning a SB than RIGHT NOW!

 

[Fester]

The vikings are rebuilding every year......

I really think it is every team if you go on facebook fan pages you would think every team is going 0-16 like Detroit did

I really don't follow much I guess and don't do Facebook. The bulk of my NFL following is right here on NDA now that I think of it.

That has to be the most expensive seat cover in history

Remember when this thread had a number of guys who wanted him as the vikings "franchise quarterback"....remember when a guy attacked me cause i didnt know they signed darnold at the time, but i said cousins chokes...but because I didnt happen to know they signed darnold i couldnt declare his choking....yet here we are..falcons bench him....falcons drafted a quarterback for a reason...they knew they screwed up with giving him that amount of money...buyers remorse...

To add how about that Bo NIX... ...NOT a denver fan either.

I was a cousins guy but I said they did the right thing not paying that money for that long of contract. How about giving Koc a little credit guy seems to know how to coach qb’s up.

Just saw that Kirk is getting benched and Penix is going to be given a shot. Saw the headline on my Google home page

KOC is front runner for coach of the year in a land slide.....

Your right, very heady move not paying the coin for Kirk. Like the guy but not for the
Never though KOC was the answer (still questionable, by me anyhow) but sure seems to be pulling the right strings. Huge credit needs to go out to Flores, puts a very good mix of defense into each different game plan.
I like what they are doing thus far. . .

I said they should of hired Jim Harbaugh and signed kirk cousins again,,,, so what the hell do i know lol. Have enjoyed following them around this year.

12-2 with a plug and play qb, dude doesn't get rattled and has single handledy turned the franchise into a destination atmosphere many players around the leauge would love to be a part of/envy..
Just watch his post game locker room speeches and his media interviews.. Win or lose, he's the same inspiring; level headed guy you want running the show. Contract expires next year but if I'm Quesi, I'm locking him up long term yesterday along with signing darnold to a 2-3 year extension.
The latter reminds me of the Drew Brees situation when his career was a question mark with the chargers and we all witnessed him blossom, sometimes it's all about who you play for and the culture.

If they give Darnold the money he is going to want ( 40 mil or more ) they will be back in the same boat they were with Cousins, unable to pay for quality players to fill in the OF line and defense. They do have McCarthy under contract for the next 3 yrs with 1 yr option, I believe around 4-6 mil/yr. Fill in the Team around McCarthy and the Vikings could be contenders for at least the next 3/4 yrs.
