They're 2-1 now. Bears, Giants, Eagles, Lions coming up.What's the Vikes record again this yr?
I bet they end up 8-8/9-7.

I would think so too.I really thought Kirk Cousins would excel in Kubiak's offense.
Yep, the Vikings offense looks great this yr.Interesting article on Kubiak's Viking offense. It discusses a lot of his offense in general. Here is an excerpt.
"The recurring theme in Kubiak’s career has been his ability to manufacture top 10 offensives with decent, but not great quarterbacks: Matt Schaub in Houston, Joe Flacco in Baltimore, the Remains of Peyton Manning in Denver. And with top QBs like Young in 1994 and Elway in the late 90s, among the very best in the league.
He’s also been able to get top production out of a number of backs, from Terrell Davis and Mike Anderson in Denver, to Steve Slaton and Arian Foster in Houston, to Justin Forsett in Baltimore and to a lesser extent CJ Anderson in Denver.
All tolled, Kubiak has had a top ten (or better) offense in points and/or yards in 16 of his 22 years as either offensive coordinator or head coach. Take away his early years in Houston, when he had next to nothing for talent, and his record looks even better."
They are pretty close in the regular season. Where Kubiak pulls way out in front is his post season record.Yep, the Vikings offense looks great this yr.
Despite all of Kubiaks offensive prowess, he a true conservative Aggie which has lead him to be a little above.500 HC. Just like BOB'S conservative style has lead to a barely above, .500 record.

Interesting that Diggs already wants out.
Kubiak is a helluva taskmasterOffense is great but both Vikings WR are complaining; one basically asking for a trade and the other calling out the QB publicly. Doesn’t sound like a great offense.
Great RB: CheckKubiak is a helluva taskmaster
Don't know why you quoted me hereGreat RB: Check
Great WR's: (Diggs/Thielen) Check

I refuse to believe that Kubiak can't work with the talent of Kirk Cousins especially if young Shanny did. Kubiak needs to figure it out. It isn't like he's working with Kirk Cousins and a ton of shitty weapons that aren't helping.
& a Super Bowl. Kubiak won a Super Bowl as a HC.Yep, the Vikings offense looks great this yr.

And still was an avg HC.& a Super Bowl. Kubiak won a Super Bowl as a HC.
My point is he's just like BO'b plus a great OC & a Super Bowl winning coach, OC & HC. That's all.And still was an avg HC.
What's your point?
All I care about is their time here.My point is he's just like BO'b plus a great OC & a Super Bowl winning coach, OC & HC. That's all.
Not really a good comparison. Their time here sure... but overall, not so much.
Lol! He was ran out of Denver after just two seasons.My point is he's just like BO'b plus a great OC & a Super Bowl winning coach, OC & HC. That's all.

After a near meltdown of the offensive playersKubiak is doing it again
We had to install his offense three times before we got it right.After a near meltdown of the offensive players
One game means he's doing it again?Kubiak is doing it again
Kubiak is in year 1, O'Brien is in year 6.One game means he's doing it again?
Wouldn't you have to abandon all of your complaints you've made about OB then based on that notion?
Maybe they're getting on a roll, but they have way more to go to suggest that Kubiak hasn't turned their offense around. If that's the case, then O'Brien is doing it again too. And I'm certainly not about to suggest that.
Avg HCKubiak is in year 1, O'Brien is in year 6.
Vikings have the 5th ranked offense after ranking 18 last year.
Texans are ranked 13th
I don't know what you mean by ranked, but I don't go by rankings at all if you're using the NFL's rankings which uses a bunch of useless stats that don't amount to zilch. Points are what determine what an offense can do unless the defense is scoring a lot of their points.Kubiak is in year 1, O'Brien is in year 6.

Yes I was basically referring to him turning around an offense quickly like he did in Baltimore. It's early but the Minnesota offense looks much improvedI don't know what you mean by ranked, but I don't go by rankings at all if you're using the NFL's rankings which uses a bunch of useless stats that don't amount to zilch. Points are what determine what an offense can do unless the defense is scoring a lot of their points.
I'm not suggesting that OB is a good coach at all on offense. Quite the opposite actually.
I was challenging your statement that he is doing it again. Doing what exactly? His offense was trash in Denver right after it was breaking records everywhere the year before, and always ran into problems in Houston as well once it got going and was pretty good. It took him several years to create a good offense here as well. Some of that was due to QB injuries to be fair, but as a HC he doesn't have this legendary history from an offensive standpoint.
He did have a very good year in Baltimore in between the Texans and the Broncos as OC. I'll give him that. Flacco had his best statistical regular season under Kubiak.
But we’re just 2 years in on a 3 year rebuild. Give it time.The Vikings offense is already better than the Texans offense
The Vikings' offensive line is winning the battle early and often today. They just put together what might be their most impressive drive of the season -- 15 plays, 97 yards, converting on a trio of third downs on their way to the go-ahead score. Lots of Dalvin Cook -- six of those 15 plays for 32 yards, including the touchdown. They're also using a lot more play-action than I remember them using in September,
Do you stalk your x-girlfriend the same way?https://www.footballoutsiders.com/audibles/2019/audibles-line-week-7
Imagine Watson in this play action offense. It would be nuts
No I can't blame bill obrien for thatDo you stalk your x-girlfriend the same way?

Not me, I'd take Cousins in a second over Schaub. Cousins is a little bit more mobile with a stronger arm and more fire to him.I've never been high on Cousins … He just isn't a good decisionmaker nor is he highly "accurate".
Yeah , he can "make all the throws" … but that's just one piece to the QB puzzle.
I'd take "Good Schaub" , as physically limited as he was over Cousins.
Cousins reminds me of HWWNBM.
Uuum yes he did choose Cousins. Cousins was the QB when he took that job. He knew exactly who the QB was going to be that he was going to be working with. It wasn't a bad choice for Kubiak either.Should be noted that kubiak didn't choose cousins, who they acquired last year.
He's only coaching the players he's given.
Some would say OB didn’t choose Watson, that Rick Smith did. So what’s your point?Should be noted that kubiak didn't choose cousins, who they acquired last year.
He's only coaching the players he's given.
Especially if all the middle names somehow started with a "K" as well....LOL.Some would say OB didn’t choose Watson, that Rick Smith did. So what’s your point?
Also, Kubiak isn’t the offensive coordinator. He helps in order to get his son a job.
Lastly, I find it odd that Kubiak named his kids:
Klint
Klay
Klein.
Not a good look in today’s world. Just saying.
(And that’s a joke for you overly sensitive types)
What do they have to do with one another?The Vikings have scored 289 points and Texans 245.
Kubiak is outscoring O'Brien with the players he's given. He hasn't even traded a single future first round pick!
