Everyone thought the Vikings were absolutely ****ed.
Andy ignoring his shitty pass protection, calling dumb plays that waste important downs contributing to a dumpster fire redzone percentage, and getting his bacon pulled put of the fire by eagle eyed special teams, his defense, and 15 throwing his cape on and proving why he's the best player in football is not coach of the year material.
If there was an award for doing less with more, he's probably a lock for that award.
I mean Veach is going all out adding players and adding players and adding players and it's still this razor thin barely scraping by, head scratching stuff.
If the struggles were primarily defensively, then id understand this more. Andy is an offense guy. Through and through. Yet week after week after week we see the same old stagnat struggling offense with the best qb that ever lived, arguably the best TE, a tandem of solid running backs, and a hall of fame wr. Move the ball between the 20s, get to the redzone, iq drops to single digits and settle for 3.
Hilariously enough, it looks like the Chiefs are more interested in Hopkins trade cost than actually using him to help the offense.
Now, if this is as many say, just Andy hiding his cards for the threepeat post season push, and the Chiefs come out and are dropping 30+ on every opponents head, playing down to nobody, just crushing everyone, I'd be inclined to change my opinion.
That's not who this team has EVER been in the 3 title win seasons, but somehow, this whole "Andy's going vanilla" narrative still lives on.
As it stands now, it just looks like an offense oriented guy not able to figure out how to get his offense to score touchdowns with any regularity, or roll over even the worst nfl teams despite having the best in the business at the controls.
Browns are a 3 win team coming up, but the odds are that this game will look like a clash of champions, with the game still up for grabs by both teams in the 4th quarter.

And how much of the offensive struggles are a product of Mahomes making poor decisions or flat missing throws?
Rice is out for the season because Mahomes threw a poor INT and then in frustration went to make a tackle and took him out for the season?
How much different would this offense look had Brown not gone down on the very first play of preseason?
How would this offense look if he hit those long throws to Worthy?
I am not here to absolve Reid of any of the blame as he rightly deserves some. But you make it seem like he’s all to blame for everything and is only being “saved” by Mahomes.
You don’t seem to think Patrick plays any part of the struggles of this team. Close game? Stupid Andy being bailed out by #15. Great offensive game? No credit to Reid as it’s only because of Mahomes.
Mahomes is 29 and is in his 7th season. To believe that he has no say in the offense or the playcalls is silly and driven by your stubborn “anti-Andy” bias.
