As most have mentioned, just a horrible offensive showing. I mean you cringe every time there's a passing play on offense. Sickening to watch.
There's going to have to be a strategic reckoning this offseason. The salary cap is a monster for Minnesota heading into next year. Looks like they'll for sure have a top 10 pick in the Draft....they need to make it count. Might need another step-back year to move a step forward in 2027. Bring in a KOC University/vet QB to compete with JJ. Going to need to secure Jalen Redmond on a new contract in the offseason, he's got only 2026 left and he's making peanuts. I would think undoubtedly you need to trade Addison, he's not a luxury you can afford. Jefferson looks beyond frustrated, first time he refused to have a post game press conference. When you lose and lose ugly, the fan base wants to light the longboat on fire.
- Minnesota gave the rest of the NFL the gameplan to take Uncle Sammy off his game: Pressure up the middle. Get him rattled, hit him early and he's toast. He can be a beautiful thrower of the football but I'm glad we let him go. Ultimately, he's going to Darnold.
- For those that thought Brosmer was going to be a revelation because JJ 'sucks', well there you go....more issues offensively than JJ. Not saying McCarthy was playing great, because he wasn't....we all have eyes....but Brosmer's weaknesses were exposed and of course it was his first game. He was trying to throw too early on many throws. Regardless, he's no Brock Purdy.
- The D really was playing so well for the majority of the game. What a wasted outing for that unit. Flo knew exactly how to attack Darnold. Just a shame.
- I just don't see a great team in the NFC. With any kind of just adequate QBing, Minnesota would be right in the thick of things.
- Saw some good QBs throw some really shitty passes. It seems I see this week in and week out consistently in the NFL.
