I am done

45 years and counting here also.

Vikes fans are devoted....but we have no faith
10 opportunities (one or two wins away) to win a Lombardi trophy. 

This is year with SB at home, touting the best defense in the NFL?

just another aneurism 

Guess I've been around too long not to guess what was coming... I DVR'd the game, checked the score about 9:10, and erased it sight unseen

so long

Im ok.  They didnt quit and pretty much expected a Saints hangover. A team wide collapse. I still like this team.  some new O line for depth and Cook back will make for a stronger team.   

Next year: Cook back, but uncertainty at QB and Zimmer has to find a new OC. Not saying "rebuild" because the defense has its foundation, but offense could take a step back. I worry this was a one-off chance...

Let's be honest.

We need a qb.  
We are set at rb.
We need receivers.
We need o line.
We need DE.
We need linebackers - Barr sucks. 
We need depth at corner.  Newman is done.  Alexander?
We need depth at safety.

Yeah.  Looks like a rebuild.

I m going to be  50  before  this  summe  I have been a  fan since age   4   I feel just  checking out  of really following hardcover so to say. Not sure what I will feel when summer  rolls around and training camp starts  just thought  this was finally the  year. I just don't know if  I can take another  championship  game loss  just tired   .it was  a great ride  that ended  to short

Barr sucks? Need Receivers? ok then....

Old guy, been with them from day 1. Yeah they pissed down their leg again. But a lot of teams had to knock on the door of a championship, for a year or two, before winning one. This team is built for a run like this every year for a couple of years at least.
It has been the best year for me as a fan since 2009. 
It's a bitterly disappointing loss, but next year shows a lot of promise, and I can't wait.

I am done watching the NFL.  

SKOL til I die...

i think it again shows the importance of home field advantage, and I feel this team really needs it no matter the era. Missed opportunity to have a chance at a SB at home. They are the Cubs of the NFL, but I do not think i can wait another 50 years.

I will only say that people were in Euphoria last week and now ready to bail this week.  They lost to a good team, that was beatable.  They did not lose to the Browns.  

Not sure why the NFL sucks cuz our team lost.  As coaches will say to teams that they blew-out, "we didn't rub it in, but if you don't like getting your ass kicked, get better, don't blame us"

Other than Diggs and Thielen ... What do we have?

The Offensive line is still a huge weakness.  It is better but against a premiere pass rushing squad like the eagles it was exposed.  We need depth at DE too.
