In the Vikings offensive "play maker" positions, I totally believe KC is the weakest link. I'm pretty sure that's not what we were to expect when he signed that huge 3 year deal.

The QB play from both teams decided the outcome of that game. Rogers played well enough early, along with KC crapping the bed late.

No, I don't believe KC will change. This is exactly the guy that played for Washington. Hope I'm wrong, of course, but I've lost faith in the guy. He lacks that "Hero" leadership quality about him you get from the good NFL QBs.

I have some concerns about Kirk's struggles within an offense that keeps peeling layers back (limited targets on passing plays, designed single reads) trying to put him in a position to limit mistakes. It didn't work. When things are reduced to 1 read and the inconsistency still rears it's head, do you keep the handcuffs on, so to speak, or do you open it back up and ride with what happens?

I think he and Diggs share that weak link designation. Diggs did several things that hurt the team, but in much smaller increments. Don't know where his mind is (missing practices in the offseason, weird rumors about trades...) but he seems to not quite be all in.

Yeah, Diggs can really be annoying with his emotional flair ups, but I don't blame him for any of the INTs. At least we have other WRs making plays. Unfortunately the Vikings may not have a better QB than KC for several years (at least this year and next).
