Hell our boys schedule could be a mess as well. Sitting at 7-2 but factoring the way things have been going the last month.... could easily end up with 10 wins or less.

Our WR room looks to be getting fed up with the way things are going. The effort on poorly thrown balls seems to be on the decline and JJ looked to say "fuck it" on several occasions today. Addison doesnt seem to be playing with the same intensity as we have seen in the past either. I dont think this is just on Darnold, it seems our routes are not generating the open looks and separation that we have seen in the early games... might be time for a new couple wrinkles for Sam to get comfortable again.

Darnold is just refusing to throw unless guys are wide open and it sure looks like he's passing up easy completions for shot plays. He's made some really bad decisions the past couple weeks.

Pretty sure if JJ McCarthy was healthy, he would have gone in today.

This would have been the game for sure. KOC can say what he wants, but he's losing trust in Darnold. 3 redzone INTs are not only the worst type but now kind of what Darnold does in Minnesota. Darnold is coming unglued, you can see it in his throws now. Even wide open completions you can see are guided and thrown in a way where there isn't much run after the catch potential because he's paranoid of completing them.

There's an exchange between KOC and Darnold in last week's Field Access of the Colts game where Darnold comes to the sidelines and says to KOC, 'I didn't want to overthrow him'....which was the TD pass to TE Oliver, which you'll notice was not a great pass to a wide open guy. KOC looked at him for a second like 'wtf are you talking about?'. He's thinking now on every pass.
