Probably will help the Vikings to no longer have a head coach who actively hates their starting QB. If anyone other than Kyle Shanahan can make Cousins a more successful QB, it's O'Connell.

Meh...This would be like the Bears having Mack on their Ring of Honor. Seems a bit weak based on Jared Allen's time spent with the Vikings.

I'll take some good news as my depression is off the charts lately.

The highlight takeaway from camp Monday might have been the successful two-minute drill from Kirk Cousins. He led the team down the field with passes to Zach Davidson, Bisi Johnson and Thielen before tossing a touchdown to K.J. Osborn. The pass was a dart to the near pylon that flew past the outstretched hands of Parry Nickerson to a diving Osborn for the score.

Dalvin Cook left practice with some type of hand injury apparently.

I hate hearing that even if we do have competent back-ups. Hope it's nothing too serious.

TE Irv Smith out until week 1 after finger surgery. Guy is always hurt. Need other TE's to step up. Weakest skill position for Vikings.

So did the Vikings hire O'Connell specifically because he's worked with Cousins in the past? If so, that seems like an odd backup plan following the Harbaugh embarrassment.

Could be, but I think it was just the McVay tree connection. I like what I see so far with O'Connell.

He's encouraging drunken savages to attack Packers fans. The same drunken savages that have Minneapolis police officers reporting to work in the basement of a daycare. I support what he's trying to do on September 11th.

Minnesota has had some issues closing the half in recent years

Remember the stories last year about third-round draft pick Kellen Mond potentially unseating Kirk Cousins as the starting quarterback in Minnesota? With Mike Zimmer out the door, you're not hearing much of that these days. In fact, Arif Hasan of The Athletic speculated that Mond could find himself on the outside looking in when the Vikings make final cuts this summer. Cousins, meanwhile, is quietly preparing for another 4,000-yard season with 35 touchdowns. Man, that guy stinks!

That's bullshit. Zimmer was clear that Mond sucked.

True. But, everyone else thought Mond would be great if he just had the chance. Zimmer being right isn't what Vikings fans want to hear.

Worst back-up QB room in the NFL to massage Kirk's ego. Fandom would take Blake Bortles over the two jabonis we have at this point. Looking forward to watching Mannion and Mond stink up the joint on Sunday so we can move on from them on Monday.

That's too bad, but he's no Justin Fields. Next man up.

Mannion should be cut today and they need to sign someone like AJ McCarron or trade for Mason Rudolph. Both would be better options at back-up QB. Mond had 2 td passes, but looked sluggish.

The good news is that we have 4 good to great RB's and one of them will probably be traded.

The secondary needs a lot of work the next few weeks or it will be a long season.

Still need a center.

Looking like an 8-9, 9-8 team depending on Kirk and injuries.

Kirk Cousins hit a throw to Thielen over the middle, turned back to the #Vikings’ roster and yelled, “You like that?!” with a certain expletive added. Crowd reacted with a mix of surprise and excitement.

I saw that. Probably getting some decent money for doing not much.

Burned his bridges in the NFL in the way he conducted himself as a head coach. There's only one Belichek and Zimmer hadn't earned the right to be such a jerk.

No, apparently it is something they are the first to try put. It can simulate other quarterbacks and the way they throw for defenses or your qbs for your recivers.
