How bout that Vikings OC today?

I think today was promising....

It was good to see. I want to see more of it. They are a different team without Cook.

The offense was well-coached and prepared today. They had a good game plan in using screens to slow down Seattle's pass rush and did a great job of chewing up the clock to keep Wilson off of the field. They also did a nice job of getting Conklin involved and it was the best overall offensive effort they have had in a long time. Very clean game.

I thought the biggest improvement was getting Cousins out of the pocket more with rollouts and a lot of quick hitting short route plays.  Not as many plays forcing Cousins to sit deep in the pocket, the plays were designed to get the ball out quicker.  Not a coincidence that the OL looked much better today as they were not forced to pass protect as long.

Vikings should be 3-0. Its really crazy to say, but its absolutely the truth.

Listened to one of Luke Braun's podcasts on a drive through the mountains Saturday and he was talking about how Seattle's cover three tends to leave open zones in the underneath in the middle and that the Vikings' playbook was perfectly suited to take advantage. He could not have been more right. Those middle zones were open all day long.

A miscalled fumble and a 37-yard field goal away from 3-0. How different would the mood be at 3-0, coming off a dominant performance against a pretty good Seattle team? Drives you crazy if you think about it. 

Which reminds me... What the hell is up with this schedule? Broncos have played the Giants, Jags and Jets. Vikings have played a much improved Cincinnati team that just blew out the Steelers. Arizona, who might be the NFL's best team right now. Seattle. Then the Browns. Get a break with Detroit, then play the undefeated Panthers, then the Cowboys, Ravens, Chargers, Packers, and 49ers. Holy @#*@.

Probably the best offensive performance in a while. Kubiak called a great game and Cousins looked fantastic yet again. Let's get to 2-2

Ehhh… we are what our record says we are, plus we played terrible in Cincinatti.

Team looked good last week and even better this week. I’m just enjoying this win and hoping it’s a sign of things to come.

At least 2 and 1. They really screwed themselves in the game against the Bengals.
