The name Mensah is certainly misleading; there's been nothing Mensa about his ability to assemble a team.

I'm constantly amazed at how inept the Vikings are at picking quarterbacks.

And healthy offensive linemen.

14-3 last season to this mess? This is on the GM and HC. Let Darnold walk...fine as he didn't want to be in Minnesota anyways but someone needed to make sure "9" was at least better then Josh Rosen.

Well, the Vikings didn't keep Case Keenum either so...

I'm not sure how to read that game today:

A) JJ made strides forward.

B) Washington's d is 8 game losing streak terrible, offense too.  

C) The Vikes got a couple bounces finally.

D) Washington understands how tanking works.

I'd say all of the above but I'm hesitant to include A in there.

Darrisaw can’t stay on the field and it’s become a problem

We are totally doing the thing where we are out of the playoffs but beating bad teams because why would we want a better pick?

Kwesi isn’t making the correct pick anyways. So does it really matter?

But it’s nice to see JJ playing better behind center. He still may be the franchise QB that this team so desperately need 

[Hayduke1]

Drew Pearson pushed off Nate Wright 

 

the hail mary should have been offensive pass interference 

 

Not that I am still bitter.  Nope.

Haha yeah this is exactly how the Vikings operate.  Finish on a heater to end the season.....paper off-season champs....and then start it all over again the next year.

Unfortunately that seems to be the case.

Its important that they find a way to finish fourth in the NFC North, which is likely at this point.  Getting the likes of a New Orleans, and a Vegas on the schedule with some other teams in that #4 slot is big for next season.

Probably a good point.

4th place would mean AZ, NY Giants and Tenn.

3rd would be SF, Wash and INDY.

You never know what teams will make a big jump from year to year, but willing to bet AZ and Tenn will still be trash next your.  Washington might be much better next year if Daniels can stay healthy all year.

Well in typical Vikings form, in a game that can ensure they finish 4th in the division and a weaker schedule, Max Brosmer throws for 51 yards (-48 yards in sacks) and the defense is lights out in the teams 4th win in a row. 

Next week will be interesting as the Packers may have a chance to win the division over the bears.  If they don't, you'll see the Green Bay B squad I'd assume as they are in regardless.  It would be a very Minnesota thing to win their last 5 games of the year after getting eliminated.

Imagine the life of a Lions fan like me…What if I told you the Vikings were down to their 3rd string QB and had a total of 3 passing yards yesterday?  I’d tell you the Lions won by 20+.  Nope, these are the Lions, remember?

I love Dan Campbell, but the man crapped the bed in the NFC Championship game.  

And then in his post game press conference talked openly how its pretty impossible to get back to that point the next season....
