Anyone catch KOC on McAfee today?

Feels like Flores is in his ear where the offense is concerned. Defensive coaches are risk-averse. They like slow, methodical low risk offenses that have less of a chance of flipping the field for the other team with mistakes.

Problem is, this is turning into a “3 yards and a cloud of dust” offense without a real running game.

Other than being one of the biggest goobers and overall dipshits you can watch, he's great. If there's ever proof of the impending idiocracy, this numbnuts is leading the charge. But other than that, really outstanding content.

😂

p.s. I'm assuming you were being sarcastic and don't care for Mac....same as I.

Kyler has to play better, and I think he will with Jefferson on the field. The running game has to improve, and should with the return of Darrisaw and Mason. But at some point we may have to realize that this is kinda what run-and-play-defense football looks like. It's hard to lose if you dominate TOP, run twice as many plays as your opponent, and don't turn the ball over.

And the fans will bitch and moan all the way to the playoffs.

LOL. You go ahead and donate $1MM to a kids hospital and then I'll accept your definition of a "goober". People are so quick to seize on a little controversy and love to miss the big picture, all while self-glorifying themselves. I think that's what is going on here.

Defense, special teams , win turnover battle and take less penalties is a recipe that works.

It's not not sexy and it's hard to repeat every game.

4 weeks in and that's exactly what's happening.

O'Connell is 32-4 when his team is only EVEN in the turnovers.

First, that's UN #ucking believable and almost unreal.

Second, it also neatly clears up the Viking coaching staff sucks ass argument.

With their schedule, the Vikings have as good a shot at the #1 playoff seed as anyone.

After koc and Murray figure it out, more people will start to notice, the Vikings are legit

Don't trade JJ.

It is because they don't share the same views. That is all. ESPN gave him his own show. I love how different he is than the rest of the bullshit media. Dude is a hell of a good human.

It's the hidden message behind their commentary all the time when voicing their opinions. It has nothing to do with talent when they voice this crap.. lol Then they'll claim that it isn't the reason at all. The last one was Paul Allen. McAfee killed it in Iowa City as both entertainment and as a human being.

Just watched the clip.

1) That’s the best McAfee has ever sounded.

2) KO is really maturing as a coach.

Hard to believe you called this guy a goober and dipshit.

I actually like McAfee. He speaks his mind and it's refreshing, but to each his own. We don't get enough of people who aren't afraid to be themselves and not succumb to the idiocy throughout the media.

Will his schtick get old after a decade or so? For some, it already has, but he's not trying to please everyone. What will never get old for me is someone who just lets it rip, good, bad, indifferent. No one should agree with everything someone says anyway.

I also love what he and Saban have done for College Gameday...not everyone agrees...see statement above.

I guess he's doing just fine.
