Waiting for this to end, but how can the Vikings NOT stop that run at this point in the game?

Very recurring theme lately.
The Devil whispered in the Viking's ear, "There's a storm coming." The Viking replied, "I am the storm." ‪#‎SKOL2018

Oh well, we still have some good young pieces in place. Just part of the rebuilding process as far as I'm concerned.
Without the QB the building is never completed.

By having the DE on that side completely neutralized...

That's 6 losses in a row now to the Bears, many of them complete blowouts...

And get ready to tee up another blowout loss next week against the Packers.

I hate being owned by the Bears. Frankly the score is better than the performance would suggest. :(

Vikings have lost 6 in a row to the Bears dating to late 2009 IIRC.

Good to be level headed, but man today was pretty ugly. We have so many holes to fill.

The worst is that our lack of WRs make it difficult to conclusively say that Ponder does not have what it takes.

Bad game for us. I hope we come back next week and get a win. Hopefully we can learn from this loss and improve

For some reason that PI call on Winfield, when it should have been called on Marshall, has me more ticked off then anything.

I get that:

1) It directly led to a score (before the game got out of hand); and

2) it was blatantly wrong and unfair.

No kidding. Isnt that what FORMS a rebuilding team? The Wilfs are clueless. As is Spielman. He has this year to blame Fraizer, and then he will be canned, once again, for what, the 5th time? Sad.
