It's a crappy Oline and no running game. Cousins isn't a good QB in big games. He racks up big numbers against crappy teams, but comes up lame in tough games. He's not good, and was crap in both games against Chicago.

We know about the OL issues but Cousins doesn't get a pass.
This team wasn't ready to play period. They looked like they were seeing things for the first time and being reactive. This team never gets up mentally for big games and that's on the coaching staff. Too many good players to "play" this poorly.

I don't buy it they weren't ready. I just think Chicago is just way better. This Viking team just isn't very good. They look like this when playing any good team.
Not ALL on Cousins, but the "can't beat winning teams" thingy is, unfortunately, proving to be a very REAL thingy.

Yep, he's something like 4-21 against winning teams. Hmm... but it's never his fault.

I believe something like 4-25 now. 
So why do Zimmer teams come out flat in the biggest games?

I think it's 4-25 after this game, but whatever it is, it's VERY concerning. Well, for me anyway. I'm sure the Purple Polyanna's will dispute that point of view and villify me for, , stating FACTS.
Thanks to the Vikings for mercifully putting me out of my misery early this year. I was really dreading another patented Viking ass-whooping playoff loss! Well done, Ricky and Mikey!
