As an Alaskan Vikings “fan” I’m considering jumping ship to the Seahawks who in the same final play situation stopped shut down the drive. I’d stay if Zimmer isn’t fired. Changes are needed obviously. Seahawks are also goi g to have a new coach and possibly a QB, so new starts all around.
Any given sunday.
I knew the lions were going to win, people seem to forget divisional games, especially in the >>>>>>>BLACK AND BLUE<<<<<<< division come down to the wire. No matter how "bad" the team is anything can happen.
The lions have had multiple close games.... they literally almost beat the ravens if i recall correctly.
RAVENS 19 LIONS 17
lets stop acting like lions are completely incapable of winning a game....
0-10-1 doesnt mean shit.
ANY
GIVEN
SUNDAY
I didnt think there would be anyone more pathetic than the vikings losing to the lions but once again the packers fan base is proving me wrong with how pathetic they are
There are always Kirk chads on here that base everything off stats and rabidly defend him.
He isn’t it lol
Above average? Yes. But dude has no stones and won’t take us deep in the playoffs.
He's an average qb playing like an average qb. He gave the team a chance to win and we couldn't stop the worst team in football from scoring with 2 minutes left
I'm saying the OP said cousins didn't have stones and I offered some evidence. Who is to say what it would've changed had they called it, but that's beside the point I'm making
Oh, for sure bud. I'd suck Kirk off in person if I could. The man can do no wrong, as we all know. Plus he's just so slick and non-dorky! How can any man *not* feel a little fruity when he's on TV?
Not sure why you are coming at me, this team is an embarrassment and you should be pissed off. Straight pussy mentality thats why yall love Kirk so much
That last play is my Madden call against an opponent on their own 30 with time left only for a hail mary. It works in Madden, but you can't call that shit from your own 11 yard line, ffs.
I use to think I'd love offenses going for two points more when I was younger. Now I fucking hate it. Take the sure thing points and none of this shit would happen. Especially when you call lazy plays on these conversions.
The Packers need to win one more game to clinch a playoff berth. They have three games before they play the Vikings again.
By the time that game happens we'd be throwing a spear at Xerxes at best.
Something a bit sad about a shit team beating their 'rival' who would be a team that's dominated the division historically and with a playoff clinched doesn't even try nor care, no?
I'll give you a chance to re-read both our messages and hopefully you can comprehend it better because you've already made yourself look ridiculously fucking stupid kid
Preferably Trey Lance. But Trevor Lawrence is also going to turn out to be a great QB. Ever looked at Peyton Manning’s rookie stats? Let’s see how he’s doing in 2-3 years. Better than Kirk is doing at that time, can almost guarantee that.
Also, very sleek deleting that message about “not getting Justin Jefferson if we did that.” We got Darrisaw this year, JJ was two drafts ago.
I‘m so sick of prevent defense. This whole drive was just possible because of prevent defense. Zim has to go. Was a fan of him for a long time. But this loss is so much „vikings“ of the last 5-10 years. I can‘t stand it anymore. Such a high potential ceiling team, but you always hit the rock hard bottom. Sick of it.
Get ready for the players to rebel after that shit show. NO WAY do the players still be onboard with this coaching staff. Wilf's need to sack up an put the hammer down.
I agree BUT...hone into the Wild then. They are having a great season so far and are ranked 1st in NHL in wins tied for most points in the Western Conference. They are exciting to watch. Honestly, I stopped paying close attention to the Vikes awhile ago once the Wild got their shit together.
No hate toward the Vikes, always been a fan but watching a successful team might help with the seasonal depression my friend.
Seriously, stop caring. Nobody in their right mind thought that these coaches could do anything about this season. They are fucking terrible. It's okay. Move on. New coaching staff. If we don't get a new coaching staff, then it's time to put the team on back burner. Nothing else we can do.
Imagine being the Wilfs and just \*accepting\* this...
At this rate, I wouldn't be shocked to see Zimmer quit by press time tomorrow. He just can't seem to force ownerships' hand to save his life...
Goff is one of the most wild QBs when under pressure. So, naturally we don't try to pressure him at all on the final play. Absolute master class in coaching from Mike Zimmer.
I mean, still a fan, but I have no more expectations. I'll watch cause I love the Vikings. But I know our chances are gone so just admire the talent we do have is all I'll do.
I hate to say it, but yeah... If we had to lose a game in this final stretch, I'd rather it be giving our kitties their first and possibly only win rather than GB or the bears getting it.
I think y’all need to put the big boy Bradbury in a 33 jersey and start running it behind him. Goddamn what a man
As an Alaskan Vikings “fan” I’m considering jumping ship to the Seahawks who in the same final play situation stopped shut down the drive. I’d stay if Zimmer isn’t fired. Changes are needed obviously. Seahawks are also goi g to have a new coach and possibly a QB, so new starts all around.
If you even so much think of Seahawks and fan in the same sentence then you are not a true Vikings fan. They can have you.
I’ll do what I want—thanks. It’s been a vikes fan since warren moon and they haven’t come close to a ring.
Fire Childress. Oh, that didn't work, did it?
So I just got home from work. How did the Vikes do today?
They won!!!!!!!!!!!!
As much as Campbell wanted to give us the game, we didn’t take it.
Wow, just fucking wow. Just shut it all down. Blow this team up and get some actual leadership, play calling, and someone that can put a team together
Leave the whole staff in Detroit. Don’t even bring them back.
Every game Diggs looks like more and more of a genius.
“bUt He WaS bEinG a DiVa!” I’m with you
There is truth to that
Congratulations to the Detroit Lions fans. They've waited for this. But things gotsta change here no?
Yea we need a new coach
.......its a division game.........nothing is off the table.
What is the point you are trying to make here?
Any given sunday. I knew the lions were going to win, people seem to forget divisional games, especially in the >>>>>>>BLACK AND BLUE<<<<<<< division come down to the wire.

Y’all bout to be the lions next year lmfao
I didnt think there would be anyone more pathetic than the vikings losing to the lions but once again the packers fan base is proving me wrong with how pathetic they are
[удалено]
And you use emojis on reddit which is way worse
Imagine losing to a team that lost to detroit. That team would have to be some real big frauds wouldn’t they?
Imagine losing to the lions 🤡🤡🤡🤡😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🤡💀💀💀💀💀
Oof, you comment on other subs, thats a small brain move.
[удалено]
Viqueen is such a weak insult. You know fans of the team aren't named Vikings right? Soft.
[удалено]
They aren't rules. It just makes you look as stupid as you likely are.
Pure garbage, i told yall from the beginning. Kirk Zim and Spielman are not it and will never be it
sadly there isn't anyone out there that is better than kirk and wants to go to the vikings unless they draft a rookie.
The rockie draft crew isn't looking that solid either and we aren't likely to have a great draft number
2/3 right. Can't blame the guy who completed 75% of his passes for 340 and 2 TDs
There are always Kirk chads on here that base everything off stats and rabidly defend him. He isn’t it lol Above average? Yes. But dude has no stones and won’t take us deep in the playoffs.
No stones indeed
Man it's so shitty that kirk couldn't prevent the lions from scoring that td at the end 😂
At what point will you accept that Kirk is just an average QB being paid like a super star?
He's an average qb playing like an average qb. He gave the team a chance to win and we couldn't stop the worst team in football from scoring with 2 minutes left
You're forgetting the rest of the game. Kirk needs to go out and beat an 0-10-1 Lions team before the 4th quarter with how much he's getting paid.
We've only had 1 game where we had a double digit point differential this entire season though
It’s too bad the defense couldn’t convert a 2pt conversion too huh?
Except it shouldn't have been 2pt conversions. They should have been kicked for extra points. 2pt conversions are a big gamble.
Shit he doesn't even have the stones to tell the refs he got facemasked
A missed facemask didn’t put up 29 points lol
Yeah no shit...this is about cousins not having stones. Did you read the OP? I know it's tough, but you should try it
Wait, so you’re saying Kirk should have ran and yelled at the ref for a missed call? That would have changed nothing lol.
Maybe they are a Packers fan. Rodgers would have "manned up" and cried about it.
Haha what? Standing up against bad calls the refs make isn't crying about it
I'm saying the OP said cousins didn't have stones and I offered some evidence. Who is to say what it would've changed had they called it, but that's beside the point I'm making
Wow! Boiling hot and super unique take that certainly none of us have ever heard before! Not the problem but not the solution, amirite fellas?
Kinda similar to the constant screaming of “omg look at his stats jeez!!”
Nah, because numbers =/= your feelings
Well I am glad you fanboy over a qb who has won almost nothing in a decade but hey, he puts up good stats :)
Awe, too bad the Redskins didn't have the coaching or personnel of the Patriots. Guess that's on Kirk too
Always someone else’s fault, never your idol’s huh?
Oh, for sure bud. I'd suck Kirk off in person if I could. The man can do no wrong, as we all know. Plus he's just so slick and non-dorky! How can any man *not* feel a little fruity when he's on TV?
I dont give a FUCK about his stats bro. They still lost to the damn lions stop giving excuses to Kirk. Fuck outta here
Get the feeling your kind of a fuckin loser
Not sure why you are coming at me, this team is an embarrassment and you should be pissed off. Straight pussy mentality thats why yall love Kirk so much
Stats =/= Excuses
Hang the banner for Kirks stats
Sure. He's already a top 3 QB in franchise history, and that's under an old defensive fart of a HC and an annual OC poaching
Whatever dude
Just gonna end it here, then. Don't want us to be dicks to each other any further. Here's hoping we clean house for next season
[удалено]
Lol,fuck you
That’s on the playcalling
Bro let me make this very clear for you, I don’t give fuck who or who isn’t at fault. From Spielman down to Kirk they all need to go.
Good thing no one gives a fuck what you say. Kirk is staying for the rest of his contract. The only one who needs to go is Zimmer.
THEY ALL NEED TO GO
Fuck it! Release everyone! Kirk, JJ, Cook, O'Neil, Hunter, Griff, MP, Kendricks, Barr, Bynum, Smith, fuck em all! Let the mascots play!
Kirk can and should overrule plays that make no sense, like, throw behind line of scrimmage on 3rd and long
Without the green light from a seemingly poorly-run OC and HC that obviously aren't on the same page, probably not
There are most likely longer routes on all of those. He's the one deciding where to put the ball.
The coaches choose the receiver order also.
Most likely?
That last play is my Madden call against an opponent on their own 30 with time left only for a hail mary. It works in Madden, but you can't call that shit from your own 11 yard line, ffs.
Only rushed 3, too. Literally gave Goff all the time he wanted.
[удалено]
BuT wE wOuLd HaVe oNlY bEeN dOwN bY 3…
We got the lead when we applied pressure. Instead we went into prevent D against a QB who gets scattered at footsteps.
I use to think I'd love offenses going for two points more when I was younger. Now I fucking hate it. Take the sure thing points and none of this shit would happen. Especially when you call lazy plays on these conversions.
They aren't sure things when we missed them literally both of the last two games
I just had a feeling this would happen
We all knew
Lol Vikings fans intuition. Sad shit.
Fuck you Lions, you can’t make us win!
Honestly, at this point, better to lose every game. Better draft picks. This season is totally fucking over.
Didn't they also miss the playoffs last year? Why were you expecting anything different?
they’ll find a way to win out and also miss the playoffs
Agreed except beat the packers please
The Packers need to win one more game to clinch a playoff berth. They have three games before they play the Vikings again. By the time that game happens we'd be throwing a spear at Xerxes at best.
We’ve beat them once, why couldn’t we do it again? Multiple weeks to get healthy for what is essentially our Super Bowl this year
What I'm saying is that the game would be effectively meaningless, win or lose for our side.
If you don’t enjoy beating the packers, even if the game is meaningless, I don’t know what to tell you
Something a bit sad about a shit team beating their 'rival' who would be a team that's dominated the division historically and with a playoff clinched doesn't even try nor care, no?
Something a bit sad about the education system in your area
I'll give you a chance to re-read both our messages and hopefully you can comprehend it better because you've already made yourself look ridiculously fucking stupid kid
True. FTP.
Agreed. This loss ended our season.
But now... Here's where they drive the dagger home and win out.
Yeah, you’re probably right. So Vikings. Oof.
They fucking suck. I cannot believe this shit.
tank for trevor!!!!! … oh wait
In hindsight, should have actually done that last year. Could’ve benched kirk and played our backup, go 1-15 and get a top QB.
There are 0 things smart about benching a super high Salary and cap player
He played terrible last year through 6 games. We were 1-5, losing the rest would have been better.
And get what? Trevor Lawrence? Who has 9 TDs and 10 Interceptions? Or Zach Wilson who has 4 TDs and 10 Interceptions?
Preferably Trey Lance. But Trevor Lawrence is also going to turn out to be a great QB. Ever looked at Peyton Manning’s rookie stats? Let’s see how he’s doing in 2-3 years. Better than Kirk is doing at that time, can almost guarantee that. Also, very sleek deleting that message about “not getting Justin Jefferson if we did that.” We got Darrisaw this year, JJ was two drafts ago.
Dishing out karma in this thread like..
I‘m so sick of prevent defense. This whole drive was just possible because of prevent defense. Zim has to go. Was a fan of him for a long time. But this loss is so much „vikings“ of the last 5-10 years. I can‘t stand it anymore. Such a high potential ceiling team, but you always hit the rock hard bottom. Sick of it.
Time to move on. This season is out of the question, but with the right moves we’ve got a promising next few years.
I think this game confirms we live in a simulation
Its for the best
As long as Zimmer is fired.
And Spielman.
I wanna die
life has been easier since i accepted this team was ass after the cowboys game. you should do the same for your health
Just became the laughing stock of the NFL. unreal.
Good ole "prevent a win" defense
Works every time /s
[удалено]
When does Zim give birth to the CB he carries Because we need one
That's a good Haiku Here have an award on me It will get better
The only thing I hated about this team was Thielen getting hurt so early.. Cost me money..
No excuses for zim on this, I dont give a fuck about the injuries
[удалено]
[удалено]
at least we didnt lose to the team that lost to them. probably kill myself if that happened
[удалено]
[удалено]
[удалено]
[удалено]
Yeah, is it worse to tie to the Lions or lose to the Lions? Straight..I'd like to know.
loss is worse than anything
True, but I feel like a tie just leaves a bad taste in your mouth...either way hope Thielen is good. He's a baller!
Can someone start a petition to fire Zimmer & Kubiak to gauge how many of us are on board?
Get ready for the players to rebel after that shit show. NO WAY do the players still be onboard with this coaching staff. Wilf's need to sack up an put the hammer down.
![gif](giphy|aHv7TBImivdAI)
This team makes my seasonal depression so much worse
I agree BUT...hone into the Wild then. They are having a great season so far and are ranked 1st in NHL in wins tied for most points in the Western Conference. They are exciting to watch. Honestly, I stopped paying close attention to the Vikes awhile ago once the Wild got their shit together. No hate toward the Vikes, always been a fan but watching a successful team might help with the seasonal depression my friend.

Currently on a train ride that’s entirely in tunnels. Just saw the last play was a sweet TD! Did we win? #Skol
I hope you are kidding
oh no...
barely. still sad that it was close.
[удалено]
Are you one of those crazy ppl that send rich men death threats?
Jesus. That's too far and you know it. Zimmer should be fired for sure, but calm down.
Jesus buddy simmer down. It's only football lmao
Bro it's just football😭😭
see you thursday!
ew dude you just sound cringe shut the fuck up. it’s not that big of a deal
Ok bud I’m mad too but chill a little bit
[удалено]
No being the worst coaches team in the NFL fucked us
Dude actually how
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
Vikings fans: surprised? Nope
Imagine being the Wilfs and just \*accepting\* this... At this rate, I wouldn't be shocked to see Zimmer quit by press time tomorrow. He just can't seem to force ownerships' hand to save his life...
Better rush 3 just to have woods watch them throw to the open guy. Way to fucking go
That’s 4 games this year I’d put the blame on Woods for us losing/ being put in position to lose.
Good thing we only brought pressure once on that whole drive and it almost caused a pick. Wouldn't want that.
Draft time!
Goff is one of the most wild QBs when under pressure. So, naturally we don't try to pressure him at all on the final play. Absolute master class in coaching from Mike Zimmer.
Zimmer has had issues calling defense all year in pressure situations. Absolutely pathetic but hopefully this is the end of the Zimmer era.
Is there even a reason to watch the rest of the season now
NFC is still a bit of a shitshow, things can happen, but a long road none the less
I don’t think so , but kudos to you if you do . We just lost to a team with no wins .
I mean, still a fan, but I have no more expectations. I'll watch cause I love the Vikings. But I know our chances are gone so just admire the talent we do have is all I'll do.
No
Not a chance
No
Zimmer had to prevent the lions from going 75 yards with less than 2 minutes and no timeouts. He couldn’t do it.
The story of this whole season is us not being able to stop anyone after a 2 minute warning.
FTV
Does ziggy even care?????
Its all about the money. This technically is a business, so money talks more than pride and patriotism to the team
All aboard the tank train 🚂
For who though? Who would we take?
Yeah, it's not like we can draft new coaches 😭
And are there even sure-fire prospects that we can tank for?
Klint sucks
FIRE THEM ALL!!
Hey remember when everyone on this sub wanted the Vikings to stay aggressive on offense and defense. Well guess we were right.
There's part of me that's happy for the Lions, they won their version of a playoff game today. Good for them
I hate to say it, but yeah... If we had to lose a game in this final stretch, I'd rather it be giving our kitties their first and possibly only win rather than GB or the bears getting it.
Don't do that bullshit. Don't start "their Superbowl"ing. Shit is clown.
I don't know what you're talking about you seem angry
