"Vikings not going quietly"

I'd hate to see quietly.

Haven't had any meaningful excitement since week 5 so I don't blame him.

They aren't blameless in this by any measure. Remember the bears game, the inability to close out the lions games, etc.
Pretty sure they dominated vs Dallas but ok. Like I said, they are not the problem

THE problem? No, but a much bigger problem than they are getting discredit for.

Sam's percentage is not that great today. He's thrown for a bunch of yards with Thielen having a career day.

You're making excuses. They may not be the problem but it's pure denial to watch their performances the last 2 weeks and conclude they aren't a problem. They've allowed something like 72 points in the last 2 games!

Outside of the Dallas game, they don't have much to hang their hat on since week 5. A few good halves vs the lions, yet they faltered both times when they had a lead late. Qb pressure way down, turnovers way down. You can make all the excuses they want. Haven't gotten it done for most of the season.

I'm not defending our offense . But zimmer's D was absolutely LIT UP today. No objective person would say otherwise

Nice game for Thielen. A bright spot
