Still can't get over the fact that this game was close. Any time you can play the defending world champions to the gun, despite 4 quarters of what had to be the best QB performance they've seen from Hurts in two years, combined with the most bizarre, head-scratching day we've seen from a QB in over a decade, you're doing something right somewhere. Just not quite sure what that is or where it is though.
Its was probably one of the more frustrating games I've watched recently: if Wentz throws just 5 decent passes...FIVE....Minnesota wins this game going away. I kept watching the Vikings get to the red zone, time after time....and here comes Reichard. Even with Hurts having 15 seconds most of the time in the pocket, Minnesota could have won and I can't explain why. What the hell Wince was doing on 5-7 throws was dumbfounding. If JJ would have made those throws, fans would have gone supernova.
And as I sit here, I have no idea what this team is....other than 3-3.

That to me is what's most frustrating. We started the season with questions and almost halfway through the season we have don't have answers to any of those questions. I'm hoping by seasons end, those answers are definitive heading into the offseason.

Big ask. Carson's career speaks for itself. It's like expecting something special out of Jeff Okudah. Not being able to draft leaves us running a football retread shop. The results are about what you'd expect.

BOOM. FACT. Drafting has BEEN ABYSMAL. PERIOD. Sorry in NO WAY SHAPE MANNER OR FORM should Kwesi traded down for Lewis Cine over just picking Kyle Hamilton. I WAS FURIOUS and that is a microcosm of his bad decision making. I get it, all of the GMs and coaches have missed its just a part of it but seems to me Kwesi misses way more than he hits.
