Yeah. Just don't see a way we fix this. Hopefully AP comes back in December and plays good.
Maybe we can get a pick or something for him. No way we beat Washington on the road. This season is over.

I blame walsh and Zimmer.
Zimmer playing prevent defense at the end of regulation is just plain moronic. Rushing 3 giving Stafford all the time in the world.
It's on walso and zimmer.

To be fair the unexpected loss of Peterson and Bridgewater kind of made this a questionable playoff team.

Walsh didn't cost them this game. He was just one of many Vikings players that made costly mistakes.
Have to agree, granted I don't think he should have a job tomorrow, but punting when you have the ball on the 18 of Det, can't make 4th and inches, sloppy tackling. Very few people to not hold accountable for this loss.

Calling a timeout before a running play for a td? So many bad mistakes

Why not wait 15 Seca to call that timeout?

This team's in trouble.
You can say that again.
Time to hit the panic button now with Walsh. If you can't score touchdowns on offense you better be able to kick field goals. Guy hasn't been right since the miss against the Seahawks last year and is costing them games this year.
The rest of the team has completely collapsed. Defense can't get pressure anymore and is not playing fundamentally sound football anymore with missed tackles and just poor overall effort in many cases.
Don't know where they go from here to be honest.

Don't forget costly penalties that helped the Lions continue drives! It was a frustrating game.
At least they were more competitive in this one than they were against the Bears.

No one man wins the game. No one man loses the game. This is a team game. The Minnesota Vikings lost as a team.

I hope they feel like losers. I also hope Walsh feels like a loser who is unemployed.
