I rarely say this, but I was happy to lose today. Good, this team wasn't doing anything the playoffs anyway. Now we can focus on getting our future QB in the draft. We'll need to trade up to get Jayden Daniels, but I wouldn't mind getting Michael Penix either. After grabbing our future QB the rest of our draft should be defense, defense, defense. Skol!
tis true.
we couldve won today. at least 3 times in the last 18 minutes i thought we were going to.
double int from mullens in the 4th ruled that out.
better for us in the long run anyway
Falcons lost and the Jets won. However, Falcons have a worse strength of schedule at .402, Jets are at .502 (not 100% if they are locked in at 9), and we are at .513 so that puts them both in front of us. Best we can do is 10. If Chicago beats GB and Vegas beat Denver we would lock in at 10. If one or them loses and wins, then we are at 11. If they both lose we are at 12.
defensively he's been disapponting, and trading with GB and det to give them big players that hurt the vikes ... i dunno. Both him and KOC are on a make or break next year far as im concenred.
Packers fan coming in peace... I don't know how excited I'd be if I were Lions fan to watch them in the playoffs. I really don't get the hype. See you all next season.
Yeah allowing Nick Mullens 400 yards twice is scary even if they won both games. Love the Lions but there are serious questions that have to be asked about that

The teams we needed to win, lost anyway. We have no business in the post season this year. Too many hurt players to make any meaningful impact. Now at least we'll get a lower pick.
Next season I’d like to see playcalling stripped from Kevin, the defense bolstered with some talent, tackling REFINED, special teams common sense, and a fix at RB
They could but it's probably one of those things where how far do you push the 'generosity'. IMO they should always do it for yards incentives if you're within 5 yards though. Maybe within 10.
Mullens career average TD INT ratio is safe.
Too bad the team fell apart this late. Too bad they started so ugly. We had a fun month of football before Kirk went down and some bonus fun with Dobbs and his story.
Worst finish in 10 years right? Next season will have its challenges no doubt. NFCN will be tough. Whatever happens SKOL on
As for Detroit? I kind of wanted them to have some success but after this? Nah FTL. Still have a long way to go before they topple Green Bay as the conference villains with an insufferable fanbase but they’re doing a good imitation of them today.
Reynolds would have gotten $250,000 if he got a touchdown. He only needed a few yards to get an additional $250,000 so that's why they kept throwing to him. He got one but couldn't get the touchdown bonus
JJ got to 1k and we did our best to get a better draft position. Given how our season went this was the best case scenario today. Let’s hope for our new QB 🥳
I for one still like KOC as a coach and I’m excited to see what he can do with JJ, TJ, JA, Chandler AND a healthy QB
He had his hands tied by bad QB luck
I figured out how to do the “>” thing the other day. Looks nicer than doing just quotes lol
If you figure out any other cool Reddit tricks, please let me know.
Nick Mullens understood the assignment. He balled the fuck out literally up until the Vikings were eliminated and then threw back-to-back INTs. Legend.
I just didn't want the iggles to get one before us and that already happened so..... Seems like everyone will get at least 1 before the Vikings are in the SB again.
Excited to watch kwesi fuck up the draft SKOL!
It is a good thing Jordan Love sucks. FTP!!!

Blow it up. Should have done it last year. Would have been much better in 24 if they did. Now it will be 25 or 26. Defense needs a full redo.
Vikings suck and always will
Throw a trade package at Jacksonville for Lawrence..the fans are turning on him--wishful thinking I know
I’d trade for Lawrence just to see his wife in the press box to!
Gross man wth
You don’t like good looking women? You must drive a Prius or a Honda ridgeline, or your an uptight woman.
Yeah must be one of those
At least Jefferson got his 1000
That's all I wanted for the last couple games
He should of had 200 plus if Mullens didn't turn back into a pumpkin on the last 2 drives.
Can’t ignore the fact they lost 4 straight. Last three to divisional opponents giving up 30+.
Who do we root for to get the best draft position as possible now?
Bears and Raiders
Thanks!
Remember when we had a 90%+ chance to make the playoffs?
We lost to Seattle on Monday night football with something like a 98% chance to win with 2 minutes left a couple years ago
Losing your MVP caliber starting QB will do that to you.
Not the first time we've blown odds like that.
Vikings were like, “hold my beer”!
Had to work all morning - didn’t see the game. How bad were we?
not as bad as last week
Dear god I hope not lol. Last week we would have lost to a Varsity team from Texas
tis true. we couldve won today. at least 3 times in the last 18 minutes i thought we were going to. double int from mullens in the 4th ruled that out. better for us in the long run anyway
It’s the NFL dude I hope they would have a few chances to win? That’s the difference between good and shit.
Yikes - 2 in the 4th? Honestly we had no business making WC this year any way.
yeah. exactly. got jj over 1000 yards and ended with optimal pick. 14 teams in the playoffs is too many anyway
What a wet fart of a season.
Perfect way to describe this season
Let’s go Chicago and Raiders help us move to 10! And a Packers elimination!
Is 10 the best we can get now
Yea it is!
Do you know, is it because the Falcons lost? I thought we had a chance at 8 but that would only put us at 9. I’m a bit confused
Falcons lost and the Jets won. However, Falcons have a worse strength of schedule at .402, Jets are at .502 (not 100% if they are locked in at 9), and we are at .513 so that puts them both in front of us. Best we can do is 10. If Chicago beats GB and Vegas beat Denver we would lock in at 10. If one or them loses and wins, then we are at 11. If they both lose we are at 12.
Would be wonderful! Hope the Packers fumble the bag again this season
I'm glad it's over, it would hurting more to see them continue handicap like this. The NFC north is already set this season
Need 11 new starters on defense
Ivan Pace can stay. Otherwise....yeah
They fought hard. Too many injuries at key spots to sustain. Add a DT, LB, DE theyll be good.
Picking between 10-12
If the Raiders and Bears win we pick 10. If both lose we pick 12 If one wins we pick 11
So 11?
Or 10 or 12
LET KWESI COOK
defensively he's been disapponting, and trading with GB and det to give them big players that hurt the vikes ... i dunno. Both him and KOC are on a make or break next year far as im concenred.
Microwaved hotdogs
WAYGU STEAK
Well done with ketchup?
Alright excited for draft season and 2024 season! I got faith
![gif](giphy|Ajhi3tsHaGBB6)
i’m ready for another year of disappointment. Here’s to 24-25
The year of the chip
We got that 7 pick boys 🗣🗣🗣🗣
We’re going to pick from 10-12
I wonder how the Wilf's feel
Peace out fellas, was fun
Nick Mullens gave KOC PTSD.
Don't act like we all didn't develop an eye twitch every time he let go of the ball.
Packers fan coming in peace... I don't know how excited I'd be if I were Lions fan to watch them in the playoffs. I really don't get the hype. See you all next season.
FTP GTFOHMF
They are screwed, if they get the rams they are cooked
You were saying?
Their offense is fun but their defense is horrendous. Stafford is gonna tear them up.
FTP
Vikings fan coming in violence who cares what you think
FTP
Yeah allowing Nick Mullens 400 yards twice is scary even if they won both games. Love the Lions but there are serious questions that have to be asked about that
No one cares
You do enough to respond. Stop being a shit fan
The majority of Vikings “fans” are shit fans who barely understand the basics of the game. They are an embarrassing excuse of a fan base.
Well that’s over
KOC walks up to his final postgame presser: *"The Aristocrats!"*
Glad it’s over
Welp, I’ll see you SKOL brothers at the draft. Love all of you fucking degenerates
Well this season was definitely interesting. Going through 4 different QBs gave me a reason to watch every week.
gave me a reason to not watch most of season
See you all next year
Alright. Let’s put a bow on this shitty season
Fire up the mock draft simulator boys
Feels like the actual end of an era this time around. It was fun y’all. I’ll miss Harrison Smith and Hunter.
Enjoy the season!
We are freeeeee ![gif](giphy|3oKIPf3C7HqqYBVcCk|downsized)
Vent line time
[удалено]
keeping?
This dude just woke up from a coma and hasn’t been following since 2019 😂
Get Reynold his incentives
Welp; silver lining is the they didn’t give up
They gave up 30, tho.
Still didn’t give up
I agreed. I was not happy at first but they at least put up a fight.
Best we can draft is now 9th.
10th, Falcons lost. You need the Bears and Raiders to win today.
I think is 10, because the Falcons lost.
nope it’s 9, now we want raiders and bears to win and someone else but i forgot who
bye, harrison smith and possibly hunter
And Cousins!
Good for the Lions trying to get Reynolds his incentives
Zimmer would never
The nightmare season is finally coming to an end.
Dumbass Dan really running meaningless plays
Can’t call him dumb when you don’t even know what you’re talking about lol
It’s a meaningless play at that point. Risk injuries when all you need to do is take a knee
BLESS ALL THE KNEES AND KEEP THEM HEALTHY *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/minnesotavikings) if you have any questions or concerns.*
Incentives. Reynolds just made 250k
[удалено]
250k incentives for Reynolds
He’s tryna help his players get incentives
Why the fuck would you throw screen passes late in the game? Just asking for your receivers to get popped one of these times.
They were getting him his incentives. Needed like 21 yards.
Josh Reynolds needed some yards for an incentive. A little cheesy admittedly but there was a reason.
The receiver they kept throwing to had an incentive bonus of 250k if he got past a receiving yard threshold
Did he get it?
Yes
He got the yardage. Needed a TD for another $250,000
La Porta died because of Campbell. Never forget
What?
Fuck this team. See y'all next season. Super Bowl 2025!
The teams we needed to win, lost anyway. We have no business in the post season this year. Too many hurt players to make any meaningful impact. Now at least we'll get a lower pick.
Next season I’d like to see playcalling stripped from Kevin, the defense bolstered with some talent, tackling REFINED, special teams common sense, and a fix at RB
This season sucked. We need to cut ties with Kirk and draft a qb.
Why cut ties with kirk? Why not draft a QB and get kirk on a 2 year deal. Have the rookie sit behind him and learn some stuff.
Kirks' coming back, and we'll draft another QB.
Gonna be a super interesting draft season. Curious to see which QB KOC and Kwesi want.
Queasy will screw it up
Why the fuck are they Not kneeling
The receiver they kept throwing to had an incentive bonus of 250k if he got past a receiving yard threshold
Reynolds was just shy of a 250k incentive I believe
We’re feeding Reynolds cause he needed like 20 yards for him to get his 250k incentive
Trying to get Reynolds his 250k incentive bonus
You know the team could just pay it out lol, nothing is stopping them
I don't think that's possible because of the cap.
They could but it's probably one of those things where how far do you push the 'generosity'. IMO they should always do it for yards incentives if you're within 5 yards though. Maybe within 10.
cambell just need anther injury sine he still had his starters out there.
Mullens career average TD INT ratio is safe. Too bad the team fell apart this late. Too bad they started so ugly. We had a fun month of football before Kirk went down and some bonus fun with Dobbs and his story. Worst finish in 10 years right? Next season will have its challenges no doubt. NFCN will be tough.

Still have a long way to go before they topple Green Bay as the conference villains with an insufferable fanbase but they’re doing a good imitation of them today.
I’m fairly certain Zim’s last year was the worst finish in 10 years, but I could be wrong
Lions are still throwing it cuz they're gutsy.
Reynolds would have gotten $250,000 if he got a touchdown. He only needed a few yards to get an additional $250,000 so that's why they kept throwing to him. He got one but couldn't get the touchdown bonus
They were getting reynolds to his 250k incentive for yards
I want draft slot scenarios and I want them now
Absolute highest case is #10, worst is #12
Christian Ponder
1 minute left for another 8 months. Its been .......and interesting season.
That stupid kid cheering for the lions just now is going to be crushed in a week
That’s gonna be me when Kirk signs with Pittsburgh in March.
Now to root for the bears to knock Green Bay out. Then I’ll be happy with today
zero chance chicago beats them, the bears are useless
JJ got to 1k and we did our best to get a better draft position. Given how our season went this was the best case scenario today. Let’s hope for our new QB 🥳
Did Addison cross 1,000 too?
Damn near had 3 1,000 yd receivers. JA- 911 TJ- 960 JJ- 1,074
No. Woulda been a lot closer if he didn’t fuck up that flea flicker.
I don’t believe so, maybe if he caught that TD earlier
Yeah, knew he was close.
Another wasted season. Glad it is over.
I for one still like KOC as a coach and I’m excited to see what he can do with JJ, TJ, JA, Chandler AND a healthy QB He had his hands tied by bad QB luck
Especially if Flores is back and able to draft some of his own guys, and they’re more consistent.
Get one and done in the wildcard round and get Daniel Jones another $40M is what they're going to do. Clown ass team.
ATL lost which sucks, they need a qb. Highest we can get is top 10 now with Raiders and Bears wins.
They’re signing Kirk.
kirk is going to do everything he can to stay in minnesota. I doubt he wants to go to the falcons, even if they give him a bigger offer than us
> Kirk is going to do everything he can to stay in Minnesota Then I hope he accepts a one year, $25 million deal.
He’ll get a two year deal for $74 million
> then I hope he accepts a one year, $25 million deal Yeah well
I figured out how to do the “>” thing the other day. Looks nicer than doing just quotes lol If you figure out any other cool Reddit tricks, please let me know.
I FIGURED OUT HOW TO DI THE THING
> test ignore this
he might. I wouldn’t be surprised if
Yeah? Also drafting a QB.
Nah. They’re not going to give Kirk a 2-3 year deal and draft a QB lol
If they don't, then we'll be stuck in QB hell with everyone else once he retires. We gotta start developing a good QB
That doesn't mean they won't still draft a 1st round QB
After everything this season, pick number ten wouldn’t be too bad
Give Dobbs a full offseason/preseason with KOC and the playbook, he’d be a great backup next year
We've seen his arm, he doesn't fit with this offense
There’s still dobbs truthers? Lmao
Let’s go Vegas and the Bears
To count how many hours I wasted on this team. I could’ve been learning a lifelong skill but I waste it on football
Don’t think like that. Youd just waste the time in other ways.
It's been real Minnesota Vikings, I'll see you in September
The NFL never stops. Offseason is just as exciting as game days.
Nick Mullens understood the assignment. He balled the fuck out literally up until the Vikings were eliminated and then threw back-to-back INTs. Legend.
Gotta say Mullens definitely better than Mannion
How many yards did Addison need for 1K?
He needed like 140
Thanks! I missed the first half but it sounds like he could’ve gotten close but gave up on a play 🤦🏼♀️ shame
Yeah. He still would've been probably 40 to 50 short. Hockenson was only 40 short when he got hurt too.
Lost 4 or first five, then win five in a row, then lost 6 of 7. Crazy season
So who are you guys rooting for in the playoffs now? The Ravens, so Cook can get a ring?
49ers. We beat them so if they win the bowl then we were super bowl contenders? Lol
Bills
Stroud
Lions. They've sucked for so long.
On the flip side, if the Lions get a super bowl before us, I don't know what I'd do.
I just didn't want the iggles to get one before us and that already happened so..... Seems like everyone will get at least 1 before the Vikings are in the SB again.
