This team has got to be the most interesting team in the NFL. There are interesting story lines on other teams. A few teams have been surprising. But for sheer nail biting excitement, the Vikings have got to be the choice. The are frustrating, exhilarating, maddening and heart warming sometimes all in one quarter. I hear the pundits and talking heads continually getting frustrated with us. No one is supposed to win this way. They can’t account for it. It goes against everything they have been taught about the game. Well, F ‘em! What is gut churning and anxiety making for us, must be amazing to the average fan. If I was that average fan and could choose any game to watch, I would say “ I want the next Vikings game. They are fun to watch!
now, please god let’s kick the packers butts!
My son has become a huge Viking fan this season, but he doesn't post on any board, doesn't have Twitter, doesn't follow any media, so he's unaware of the various narratives about the Vikings.
After the game yesterday he says "why do the Vikings always start well, have everyone thinking this could be a blowout, then let the other team get the lead, and then come back to win in the 4th quarter?"
I said, "son, there are over a million people trying to figure that one out, including every member of the Minnesota Vikings."
This whole season has felt like an out of body experience. Historic comebacks and phenomenal record-breaking plays, I keep watching and it's like what did I just see, what the actual fuck just happened. It is a season unlike any other. They are also breaking some of the so-called curses. And they still haven't been their best yet, but the mentality they have is unreal. The mindset is locked in. I am looking forward to seeing what comes next.
TJH was saying he isnt going to be able to really soak this up with proper perspective until the season ends. I think as a fan, the same applies to me. Just a whirlwind.

Like I have recently been seeing all over social media, the NFL is rigged!

Not to pile on Zimmer, but i cant imagine this shared moment going on during a game with any of his star players while he was here.
KOC could be a coach for the ages. I’m hoping he is here a long long time.

I remember that moment during the game. It was near the end right after Jefferson made a couple of critical catches that I am starting to take for granted.
Was thinking to myself that is a very authentic connection I'm witnessing.
I suspect nobody is happier to have KOC and KC here than JJ.
