This team just isn't good. Average, mediocre as always and stuck in purgatory. They look like dogshit tonight

Defense started their offseason early also.  any chance everyone’s hero Flores still doesnt connect with players?  More likely theyve just been outcoached tonight.

Mullens isnt going to make a difference. The defense tonight sucks, the offensive line sucks and it looks like the entire team would rather be somewhere else.

The season is basically over and has been for a while. It is what it is. Hall is a deer in headlights. He is not processing things fast enough. But I get that he is a rook. I think that Nick Jameis Mullens is coming in.

Team looks sloppy and like they weren’t zoned in pretty much from the start. I wonder if Hall maybe looked bad during practice and they thought this might happen? No clue but that’s about the worst half we’ve played all year.

Mundt’s 2 drops (including 1 that led to a pick) were especially fun. Get well soon, Hock.

Boy do they ever look like shit. Worst they have looked all year. I guess this is on KOC.  i love the idea of him and how his players seem to respond.  His O is kick ass in design, but He needs an elite QB to run it. 

I admired watching Pitt today and Mike Tomlin. That is a consistently tough ass team that commits to the run.  

2 years in now and KOC has lost some standing with me. Lets see what haopens next year.

Not a good night to get a read on Hall's abilities. He needs time to get a feel for the speed. Missing Hockenson as a security blanket, but more importantly the team has left for spring break.

So for everyone who’s been bashing KO for not putting a 5th round rookie in at QB sooner, there ya go. Turns out the coaches who watch these guys every day in practice do know something. I agree he got zero and I mean zero help last night, so there’s that, but he’s not ready.

The Vikings better start whoever gives us the best chance to lose next week vs Detroit (Lew Cine come on down!). I hate saying that as a fan but with one game left, that’s where I am.

I don't blame you. I'm sure the team would like to finish with a W, and I expect them to do everything they can to win, but losing has its benefits as well. 

I feel bad for Hall. I'm sure all of his family and friends were watching. But there should not have been a controversy over the starting QB at all.

The lone positive that I did take away from Hall's play was when he was under pressure, which was often, he didn't just take off running. He tried to stay in the pocket & complete a pass.

Ideally you'd never have to ride Mullens for more than a game or 2.

I'd be ok with that cause he's got some bras balls and can run a pro offense. 

I have no idea what to make of Hall other than the stage was too big for him last night. I would not be comfortable with him as a #2 right now. 

KOC was right to pull him at the 1/2, it could have gotten FReeman'esque other wise.

Hall could have started versus Cincy.  Vey likely would've had the same outcome.
 

2 weeks ago the roster was still engaged  and motivated ,  Last night they weren't
