  ending to the KC/Atl game for sure, kinda disappointed that Tennessee didn't put up a better fight against the cheeseheads too.

[LPS]

I was too Gunner.  I thought it would be a good matchup.  They just couldn't wipe the smile off Rodgers face though.

[Gunner55]

Not much of a game last night, it looks like the Bills will be a tough out in the playoffs. Diggs is lighting it up & gotta be lovin playing out there.

[LPS]

Ya he was sure having fun.  He made the right decision for him.

   That's funny comin from  you!!    
                                                     Looks like them or KC in the SB from the AFC to me!!

Heard today that Roethlisberger isn't gonna play this weekend & speculation is that the Steeler's will sit quite a few of their starters. They're playin the Browns & Cleveland needs to win to get in the playoffs.

Dalvin Cook isn’t practicing. His father just died. Haven’t  heard if he’ll play against the Lions or not.

[dutchboy]

No he isn't playing. Several Vikings are opting out. No reason to play a meaningless game.

[Gunner55]

Seen that about Cook this morning too.

[glenn57]

No he isn't playing. Several Vikings are opting out. No reason to play a meaningless game.

I can't find any news about anyone opting out cept for cook and Reiff got put on the rona list??

[deadeye]

I guess if they go by that, they will plan to sit out the next XX years. 

[fishwidow]

I figured it would be a good opportunity for Cook to pile up a bunch more yards.

[glenn57]

just read that Philip Rivers is retiring from the NFL!!!!!!!! going to coach high school football!!!!!

[Gunner55]

He's probably gonna get all 9 of his kids to play for him, so he's got a team already.

[GrandpaTom]

[Steve-o]

We didn't need him...   

[LPS]

Good for Stefanski.  Too bad we let him go.  He obviously knows what he is doing.

[glenn57]

You sure we let him go?? And he didn't interview for the heads coaching job???

[LPS]

He's not here.

[glenn57]

He's not here.

I Know but I thought he was the offense coordinator and interviewed and got the head coach job at Cleveland???

[Jerkbiat]

What Glenn said I believe.

[markn]

  Gary Kubiack was the OC for the Vikings. He retired yesterday or Wednesday I believe.

[Gunner55]

  Gary Kubiack was the OC for the Vikings. He retired yesterday or Wednesday I believe.

  He was only 54 but had been in the NFL 30+ years. Think he had some pretty major health issues out in Denver we he was the HC.

[glenn57]

  Gary Kubiack was the OC for the Vikings. He retired yesterday or Wednesday I believe.

yea, they hired Kubiak after Stepanski left to take the head coaching job in cleveland!!!!!

[Steve-o]

I guess the thought is...  Maybe the Vikes should have promoted Stefanski and dumped Zim, who's welcome is starting to wear thin with the fans.

Maybe Zim has a couple seasons left in him?  How many does Stefanski have?

How long did the Vikes keep Childress?  How many years has Tomlin been in Pittsburg?

[Gunner55]

Actually I think Kubiak was already up in the press box helping call the plays the last couple seasons Stefanski was here.  Pretty sure it was about the time Shurmur left & they promoted Stefanski to OC that Kubiak came aboard.

[Steve-o]

We'll probably end up with Klint Kubiak - Gary's son - as Offensive Coordinator.

https://www.startribune.com/vikings-offensive-coordinator-gary-kubiak-announces-his-retirement/600013406/

But sources said this week Kubiak's son Klint, the Vikings' quarterbacks coach the past two years, is thought to be a leading contender for the job...

[LPS]

I'm thinking that is the way it will play out too.
