For the love of god please trade us a QB who can compete a pass.

I agree. I think it has to be over here soon. Bring in Kirk and be done with it. Even the TD to Jefferson wasn't a good throw. JJ made a hell of a catch.

Bring in Wentz, at least he can hit open receivers

Honestly any improvement that Kyler has shown between Week 1 and today feels more like normal variance than any sort of upward trajectory.

Same goes for our entire offense. It's so brutal.

Addison and Jefferson looked checked all the way out when they showed em on the bench.

You’d be checked out if you knew your QB couldn’t hit a 15 yard pass to save his life.

There’s just no juice. Nothing. We can’t run. We can’t pass. Will Fries belongs serving fries. We can’t even get into +60 yard field goal range.

Need to be prepared for the game. Maybe have a heart? That’s good to have in a leader.

It isn't that we lost. It is how we lost it, yet again. We are playing the dead last defense in the NFL. The experiment is over. Maybe you should have listened to Jefferson, Kyler. Fucking irritating.

Like, WTF is going on here? I don't understand how the offense has this many pieces and is routinely this bad against bad defenses. Like I feel like we should be able to run a high school offensive scheme and have it turn out better.

I think you have to try and trade for Cousins before you try and trade for a stud RB.

To the last part- Yes. Trading for a stud RG or RB or hey why not, a fourth stud WR is all just lipstick on the pig if your QB and play caller can’t get any of them the ball in plus spots

Yeah I think that was pretty much the argument, and also maybe injuries happen, but I don't think anyone had this level of ineptitude on their bingo card.

No way in hell anyone should expect a QB trade at this point of the season.

It's K1 or Wentz...

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

It's frustrating for sure...

All I can do is hope things get better on offense. And yes, hope isnt a plan.

I hope so too. BUT Jefferson refused post game comment. I think that is a wrap.

Someone needs to raise their hand at the presser tomorrow and ask KOC, "Have you given any thought to turning the offense over to Wes Philips, just to see if a change of pace would help?" Because nothing is going to fix this until the guy who's the problem admits he's the problem. I don't care how he answers, just plant the seed in public.

They tried that with Jefferson on Wednesday. His comments are all you need to know. Preparation is a major issue.
