The #Vikings have played FOURTEEN different offensive line combinations through the first 5 games, Kevin O’Connell mentioned via The Schrager Hour

We've seen what losing even one good OL (Landon Dickerson) can do to an offense. Considering 14 different line combos, it's nothing short of shocking the Vikings have a winning record. If they can somehow pull all five starters together at some point, they are going to be a completely different offense.

Getting bodies back is good, continuity even better - but that might just be a pipe-dream for a while. 

Then add the middling defensive play, not stellar QB'ing? The 3/2 record is even more remarkable lol...

I have no idea what the rest of the year will bring with so many questions on injuries and at QB. 

Put on the fan seatbelt and "hit go" I guess..

As much as we may whine/growl about not "having nice things"...even the teams typically with the nice things are having a wicked start to the year.

The Eagles just got HANDLED by the Giants. KC is nearing dumpster fire status. SF can barely keep Purdy upright after paying him. The Pats just took the Bills down.

Baker Mayfield is apparently the head mofo QB in the league right now. Baker "fired in favor of a masseuse r@pist" Mayfield.

At some point, we have to just call this a tweaked season.

ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!!
It's officially SKOL SEASON!! LET THE PLUNDERING BEGIN!!

Honestly this is where I'm at. I have no f-ing idea what's in store the rest of the year.

We aren't the only team with OL injury woes. 

Hard to project anything two weeks ahead, but now the Chargers RT, Trey Pipkins, who was starting in place of the injured Joe Alt, who was playing LT in place of the injured Slater, is now out with a knee injury and will not play in week 6. 

Making matters even worse, Pipkins backup (OT4) just showed up as a DNP on the injury report too. The fact that we play them on a Thursday will make it even harder for those players to get back in time.

They need to put a bullet in Thursday games...Especially when they move to 18 game season.

And coming off a bye week.
