Sadly they don't get to hear the incessant gaffes from that clip:

"The Vikings come out of the huddle it's 1st and 10 at the Vikings 25.  Cousins hands the ball to Cook who runs off right tackle for 6 yards to the 27.  It'll be 2nd and 9.  Cousins drops back and passes up the left sideline to Thielen at the 32, he slips one tackle and is taken down at the 34 for a gain of 12 making it 3rd and 2"

They say the camera adds 10 pounds...or thirty. I guess it's been awhile since I've seen PA. Fully grayed out with a shadow maker out front.

He's a wonderful announcer as long as you're not interested in what's going on during the game.

Who LeBron or PA?!?!?!

And anything coming from LeBron is pretty much dinky-doo.

As usual, the Vikings don’t look good.

Dallas even getting a FG try at the end of the half is totally unacceptable.

They’ve proved me wrong a few times this season, but all those other times you could point to at least one drive where things went well. Not so in this one. Both lines completely owned.

The O Line is doing the exact opposite of last week. Yes, losing your best lineman is tough, but it IS still a team game.

I don't think the Vikings allowed a TD during the commercial break.

Clearly Minnesota is in quit mode, but this performance cannot be explained by bad bounces, turnovers or bad luck. They are getting throttled play by play.

Next time somebody starts squaking about playoffs, the answer is "Dallas." This team is the team we hoped they were not.

Another loss to the whiner coach....

They lost this game as soon as KOC went pass-pass on 2nd and 2 on the 6 yard line against a bad run defense.

Is it too much to ask for Kirk to move his arse and not stand there like a statue?

Cousins is the most overrated quarterback in the NFL!!  Definitely not worth $25 million!

The O line is Swiss Cheese right now... Not his fault at all.

Where on earth would you like for him to move to? He's being swarmed from all angles on basically every single dropback.

I expected a letdown after all the drama and celebrating after the game @ Buffalo. But this is even worse than I expected.

I would agree. I thought Dallas would win in a nail-biter, and even with that, I would not have been 100% sure.

The Vikings interior O line is an issue. Obviously.

Cousins is not worth $25 million!  He stands in the pocket way too long, instead of getting rid of it and avoiding getting sacked.  The could use th $25 million to improve their defense!!

I can’t stand Cousins but not sure today is the day to pound this take. The Vikings got manhandled at the line of scrimmage today and if they had Tom Brady in his prime out there it wouldn’t have made a difference.

I think Vikes will beat the Pats (obviously I HOPE so, but I'm saying this objectively). Bounceback game. As for the odds/line I think MN -2.5 

The Pats barely beat the Jets today (last second punt-return) and MN will be wanting to hush the doubters after today.

He will make $40 million in 2022.

Kirk is a top 10, but NOT top 5, QB. I will die on that hill. I rank him 8ish.

We’ve gone thru this before but while you can call him the 8th best or tenth or twelfth today, when you factor in age and potential he starts sliding way down the list. I’d much rather have guys like Tua or Lawrence or Fields who will have long careers and continue to improve. We know what Kirk is and this is it. He’s not making players around him better or making game changing plays. The Vikings ignoring the QB position is gonna hurt them sooner than later as they’ll have to continue to sign high dollar FAs instead of developing a draft pick.

Right now, this moment, he's 8ish. If one wants to ask "Who do you want as QB for the next 5-10 years?" That answer changes, and I have zero issue with that. That is a big difference in rating QBs.

They have done this before and bounced back from it.  It seems like the team knew immediately the game plan was not going to work and packed it in.  I don't know why it seems like the players here get too hyped on themselves.  It happened when they beat New Orleans then got destroyed by Philly.  This loss felt like the same exact thing.  Like they didn't think they had to play hard to win.  At least this was the regular season and there is time to come back.

The Vikings are still in solid position to be the #2 seed in the NFC.  The next few weeks will tell us a lot about who they are as a team.

I would say yesterday told us a lot about who they are as a team....lose their starting left tackle and a corner back and they're a pushover.
