Trending upward: Keith Taylor Sean Chandler Sam Franklin Chuba Hubbard Frankie Luvu WR #4 in the RZ Trending downard: Sam Darnold Joe Brady Robbie Anderson John Miller Matt Paradis Dennis Daley DJ Moore had his worst game of the season, which seemed to be a common theme for the vaunted WR group. The Vikings secondary did an excellent job of blanketing Sam Darnold's weapons, evidenced by his 11/29 passing for 120yds and 1 INT so far. As awful as the team has played, they're still a defensive stand and a game tying drive away from sending this into OT. Nothing so far has given us reason to believe that this will be the case, but... hey, sue me for trying to find sunshine in a poo show.

It is remarkable to me that despite how poorly the team has played that they're still within 8pts of tying this up.

That's a touchdown. Damn... defense got drilled on that drive.

Can't give up two chunk plays back to back like that. Defense needs to settle down and force a turnover or a field goal attempt.

Can we retain Frankie Luvu pls? Dude is only costing $1.1M against the cap. KEEP THE DEPTH!!!

Can't help but wonder if Joe Brady got that play call in in time after the original time out... Would be incredibly ironic for him to have done that twice against the Vikings.

Can't believe that's DJ's first catch today. Really speaks to the ineptitude of the offense today.

Heeeeey, way to fight for that 1st on the second effort, Chuba!

Derrick Brown did a hell of a job giving the LBs time to get there while drawing the holding call.

Great play by Haason!!

Sam Franklin getting there in a hurry! Really digging what we're getting out of some of these depth guys like Chandler & Franklin

C'mon RA... you were looking to turn and go before securing the catch there

10 plays, 85 yards Vikings have more than double the Panthers' time of possession. The offense needs to respond.

LET'S fuging GO AJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What did Brown do? Can I get a replay?

Superior play calling there by Minnesota on the end of that drive. Can't keep asking the defense to cover for the offense's shortcomings... we saw that during the previous regime.

Good play call vs. zone coverage there by MIN So that's what it's like when you adjust based on what the defense's tendencies are...

ooooooof bad whiff on that screen

DJack did what he could there

Ugly, ugly, ugly first quarter for this offense. With the trend of abysmal 3rd quarters, I'm worried about the defense giving up big runs late due to being gassed.

Every time I see Matt Paradis fail, I remind myself that Tyler Linderbaum will look excellent in a Panthers jersey.

Keith Taylor is having himself a solid 1st quarter. Love to see late round picks putting it together in season!

Frankie Luvu in there quick! This defense is going to get the offense opportunities, the offense just needs to be productive with and protective of the ball. If the OL, QB, and OC can all get it together this is going to be a dangerous team.
