It looks like we got a couple nice new pieces this week with Iloka and Brett Jones.

Great start to the season!! Defense looked great as expected and the offense came up big when needed. Only real question mark was Carlson and he made all his kicks. SKOL!

I wasn’t to impressed today with the Vikings. 49ers shot themselves in the foot over and over. 2 plays come to mind Morris’s fumble and Kittle’s wide open drop where the next play was the pick 6. Those plays go the other way and it’s a totally different game.

Defense made big plays but gave up way too many big plays out to the flats/wheel routes.

Offense didn't look as explosive as hoped due to obvious issues along OL. Cousins had no time to throw and this wasn't exactly a formidable front 7 we were up against.

You have to cut Carlson before next week right? That's not acceptable in DII college, let alone the NFL. Hope we learned our lesson with Walsh, and not hold onto a kicker for over a year too long. And there has to be better options out there instead of Treadwell. He absolutely does not belong in the NFL.

Still crazy that we were able to get this game to overtime. Very exciting game to watch.

Dan Baily is available. He would be a big upgrade.

If they're making moves mid-week maybe they do something with Priefer.

Carlson cut!

Bailey likely to be signed!!!

We also signed a WR I've never heard of. https://www.dailynorseman.com/2018/9...ign-dan-bailey

I wonder who else is getting cut. It wont likely be Treadwell, because I heard we take an additional $3.1m cap hit if we cut him this season.

Do you really think they'd replace him during the season?

from today’s press conference:

Q: "What went into your thinking about waiving Carlson?"

Zimmer: "Did you see the game?"

Finding out we need a new kicker in week 2 and having it only cost us half a win is >>>>>>>>>>>>>> finding out in the playoffs and having it cost a full win. Hopefully Bailey is still really good.

Also only half a win in a game we should have lost. I couldn’t be happier with the Bailey signing.

Cool way of looking at it. If all that crazy **** didn't happen leading up to that 35 yarder, then I don't think they cut Carlson. Sick chain of events.

Well finding out week 3 of 48 that your QB is total trash isn't ideal

Holy hell this might be most embarrassing game in Vikings history

That had to be one of the sloppiest games I've witnessed in awhile from the Vikings. That was embarrassing indeed. Game don't mean much though if we can make up for it with a win in 1 of the next 2 weeks.

I give a lot of blame to Zimmer sending the message the bills were not to be taken seriously by sitting Griffen and Cook.

That first half is the worst half of football I have seen in a long time.

Our OL is a huge mess, this team is in big trouble.

Everson Griffen alledgely threatening to kill people at a hotel and attempting to break into teammates homes. Starting to feel like 2010 and 2016.

He seems super broken. Like a serious brain injury from football, drugs or both.

wow lot of dumb in this thread.

cousins obviously isn't trash. ball security is an issue and it's being magnified by a horrendous OL.

the OL is a huge issue that could definitely sink the season.

why the defense has regressed so much from last year despite staying healthy losing ~no one in the off season and adding sheldon richardson I have no idea...

and lol at that loss being easy to make up. It will very very likely matter for seeding down the stretch. lots of "good" teams ****ting the bed so far this year, rams looking like a lock for the 1 seed unless we can win this week which I doubt given the mismatch of their DL vs our OL.
