The team is frustrated. The writing is on the wall for Zimmer.

I am hoping they don't lose Jefferson because he is phenomenal. Zimmer has to go.

I am listening to Jefferson right now and he said if Klint targets me more I am all for it.

Any receiver wants more targets, but it makes sense to target our best offensive player more often. 

This is just trending bad.

Keeping Kubiak another year would be disaster. Probably the same with Zimmer too.

Well, depending on what happens with Dalvin, Zim may have no choice but to play these players like they are meant to play and open up the offense like the rest of the NFL does. I really like Mattison but he absolutely is no Dalvin, so a clunking run first philosophy will go up in flames if he has to become RB1 for any extended amount of time.

They are wasting so much talent on the offense, need an innovative offensive coordinator and a head coach that actually coaches the whole team.

Knew we should've hired that high school coach who put up 106 points the other day.

This is the worst I've seen season to date from Mattison. 

Lack of consistent running game has really hurt this offense this year and the IOL is the culprit.

It woukd be one thing if his defense was working. It isn’t.

It’s just bad football.

Most players,  especially RBs, benefit from reps,  Mattison has shown very well when he is the feature back,  the one or two carries here or there throughout a game is really hard to judge a players potential ability as a starter.  Mattison doesn't have Cooks quick twitch,  but I think he brings more thump with him as well as some other attributes.

He’s right. These coaches become uber conservative with even the slightest lead. You should have one focus, score on every drive. Instead they let games stay close and lose out in the end. It’s maddening and it can’t end fast enough for me.
