Decade Setback!  "I SAY NO"!  November 2, 2021
I
t is easy to be critical of this franchise, as you have no skin in the game, except for one very key notion ... "I want that first Super Bowl Championship before I die".  This mantra, given to us by Zulgad's group, flies directly in the face of the never ending chant of "Fire Head Coach Mike Zimmer".  To be direct, Zulgad knows that Super Bowl victories do not coexist with cleaning house.  In fact, to a person, everyone knows that cleaning house means another "Decade Setback" for this franchise.     

Sure, we are all upset after our latest prime time debacle, facing a clearly inferior team, even with Dak, but you must keep your wits about you.  May I remind you that Zulgad has been spewing his negative vibe for years & now the Viking faithful are willing to jump on board, aligning themselves with this franchise zealot, as he comes up with yet another impossible measuring stick.  The Super Bowl is not won in just one day people.  No, I'm not on board with these zealots as that is not what creates championships ... but rather ... it is what destroys them.  Firing Mike Zimmer doesn't solve this franchises purpose ... it only serves Zulgad's purpose.  Did you really think that this leopard was going to change his spots?  I don't think so.  Align with the negative & that is exactly what you're going to get ... the negative.  

This year is now cut & dried.  If Kirk Cousins doesn't play in the February 13, 2022 Super Bowl ... He's going to be traded.  Anthony Barr will be gone.  A new head coach will be installed.  Spielman will be jettisoned as his track record in the first round is well below substandard.  All those 1 year deals will not be extended except for maybe Griffen & possibly a couple more.  What that means is that each of these characters are now on notice that they are auditioning for the entire league & that they have to repair their image ... as people don't hire substandard units.  Most if not all of the upper coaching staff will be jettisoned.  People ... we are talking about another DECADE SETBACK, which I don't think I'll survive.  If Zulgad actually gave a crap, he would have clearly presented this to the Viking faithful ... but he doesn't.  It's either win it all for me ... of I spew the rhetoric ad nauseam.         

I truly believe that Mike Zimmer wants to win that first Super Bowl Championship for this franchise ... and if you don't believe that ... then your out of your mind.  In fact, he's trying so hard not to make a mistake that it is clearly hampering him from seeing actual opportunity.  In fact, said another way, he's now in a very different situation.  With all this rhetoric flying about he can now clearly see that he's a cornered animal, which means what you might see coming out of this is nothing less than an unpredictable wolverine ... the most dangerous animal, pound for pound, on the planet.  Maybe ... that is exactly "THE GIFT" for which this Viking Nation has been praying.  What would you do backed into the corner?

Allow me to remind you that any team that qualifies for the NFC playoff tournament has a chance to win it all which means that in the scheme of things, Sunday Nights loss was an embarrassment for sure ... but it is not the end all here.  Just for once, couldn't you just imagine Kirk Cousins ... leading our entire offense ... by mimicking pulling his pants down by the goal post in a Green Bay  ... during the playoffs ... in a tribute to Moss ... along with Rodgers exit.  Sure it would draw a 15 yarder but don't you think that it might make Dungie chuckle?   There are still ten games left & we can only beat ourselves.  With or without Daniel Hunter, facing Dak or not, this team still posses every tool that it needs to defeat anyone in the playoffs, especially if Tom Brady & his team of all stars aren't part of the mix.  

Do you need to make changes?  Yes, but that has nothing to do with destroying this team midseason.  It could be as simple as turning over the responsibility of this offense to Kirk Cousins ... sink or swim ... by giving him the autonomy of running the 2 minute ... and to burden him with the potential the "Idiocy Moniker Alone" ... of screwing the pooch.  It might also be wise to take the challenges & time outs out of Zimmer's hands & handing those calls over to Andre Patterson with the understanding that if he gets it wrong, he has to bite the head off a live chicken.  Now that's U-Tube viewing ...    

No, Mr. Zulgad ... you are wrong & you've taken all the wind out of these Vikings sails ... and for what?  Kiss my ass ... you Zealot!   

So, based upon this, what would be Mike Zimmer's role ... of course he'd still have the most important role of all.  It is to wield the, "I told you so!", that we all dread.  Zim, what should be done here (4th & goal from the 3 yard line)?  Zim blurts, "Kick it".  Cousins instead runs the play.  He either proves his shit, gaining the confidence from all those knuckle heads, or he hears those words that no one wants to hear.  If it were me, my wife knows when to let me have it, but she also knows when to recognize the fight. 

I disagree with Zulgad.  What is gone isn't without question ... especially what he's spewing & blithering.  What is gone & is without question is .... CAUTION!    The throttles are now jammed ... full speed ahead.  It's life in the fast lane from here on out.  God help us all!  

As for Mike, they want you to just lie down.  If it were me ... I'd like to give them all a nice shit-burger to eat.  Sorry for the language but I'm just paraphrasing from the movie "Major League".   Keep them safe from all harm & before you get gutted like pigs before the entire world ... you just might consider that maybe ... that it's  time to fight.  Hey!  It's only your livelihood.  As for me, I may not be able to control the knife but as for the rest ...

Did anyone notice the ball bouncing funny on Sunday & no the Breeland thing had nothing to do with the dancing idiot Dishman?  Deflection ... into a lineman's hands ... bouncing ... bouncing ball ... into the receivers hands.  Do you think this is the first franchise that's had a really bad game ... like a grand master had never lost playing chess?  FOCUS!  It's what you do from here knuckleheads.
