What is wrong with him? Or is this just how he is? Is the problem that he’s just not comfortable with the system yet or what? Yes, I know we are 4-0 but it’s not because of our offense. I think we’re last in the NFL in offense and we should be. I sat here yesterday in stunned silence, watching a number one draft pick who I thought was a decent QB from watching him play with your team, do nothing. And finally, FINALLY in the second half it seemed like he was getting comfortable throwing the ball to Hockenson, the TE. So he continued throwing the ball to him like he had tunnel vision.

If anyone here could enlighten me about what may be going on, I would greatly appreciate it.

A bewildered Vikings fan.

EDIT: Thanks for all your insight! I truly appreciate it!

Let me put this into context for those of you who are okay with us being bad and making no changes.

1st quarter ends: we’re up 14-3, Jacoby had 61 yards passing.

SINCE then: we’ve been out scored 27-10, Jacoby now has *checks box score* 129 yards total. so if you’re doing the math, in 3 quarters he thrown 68 yards total with 2 bad interceptions and 1 touchdown that was basically set up for us. His average pass today has gone 4.7 yards. And oh yeah: A 100 yard pick six at the goal line as time expired.

Meanwhile the defense has given up 27 in 3 quarters and has given up 30 or more total for the NINTH time since November 9th of last year.

Anyone who is still like “it’s okay, we expected to be bad, what did you expect?”

Jesus Christ, you should pissed and embarrassed. Rallis should be packing his office tonight when we get home.

Start warming up Beck.

And for the love of god, pull the plug on Monti. This is his team, he built this and wanted this.

And I will go to war for LaFleur. He didn’t build this team, he didn’t pick this QB. I genuinely feel bad for him.

It‘s insane that anyone is still supporting those 3 goons having anything to do with the leadership of this organization.

Have some respect for yourself as a fan.

“The Arizona Cardinals aren't making a quarterback change after their Week 4 loss to the New York Giants, according to head coach Mike LaFleur.

"’No,’ LaFleur said post-game before the question could even be finished during his press conference.

“In Arizona's 36-24 loss to New York, Brissett completed 21 of 35 passes for 166 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions. He finished with a passer rating of 55.2 — his lowest as a starting quarterback since 2022.”

With the O-line how it is, is it even worth it to have Beck play at all? I remember David Carr with the Texans but don’t know if that line compares to the Cardinals. If Beck has upside I’d hate to see it destroyed by a trash line. But I do understand needing to see him at some point.

Only 2 things from this game we learned need to happen.

It blows my mind that he’s been able to maintain employment here as DC this long. The only DC’s I can think of that might have been worse than him were Al Holcomb and Billy Davis. The difference is those guys lasted 1-2 years as DC where Rallis has been here since 2023. Let Teryl Austin call D.

Let’s be real monti needs to get fired he sucks as a gm he’s 16-38 since 22 this rebuild he’s trying to do is terrible bum ass he has had no all pros or pro bowlers genuinely how does he stay at the end of the season do you guys see him staying?

The absolute mediocrity has to end, is there anything the fans can do? Imo it starts with ownership. Everything about this team, ownership, gm, scouts, ballboy, waterboy every single thing is completely limp and accustomed to getting their teeth kicked in, it’s like they don’t even give a shit.

Genuinely, while it’s a good thing that MHJ is this quiet nice guy, it would be refreshing to see him actually call his team out (though his lack of effort on a consistent basis is a major issue too, not saying he is good / team bad, but I do think in some way he is a victim of the god awful, losing culture the cardinals have managed to build since Bruce Arians left) or any major player on the team honestly to call their team out. It’s year after year of being a fucking joke in the best division in the NFL.

Is there anything that can be done? Can the fans push for anything? Is there any precedent for fans pushing out ownership by demand or something ?? lol. No obviously this is a rant and maybe a bit too excited, but I do genuinely want to know what, if anything, the fans can do.

I’d love to hear our GM give a comprehensive answer to this because we’re in year 3 but at the same time we’re at step 1 struggling to go .250, meanwhile all our division rivals have successfully rebuilt in less than half that time into playoff or even championship level teams. We’ll never get a straight answer but seriously how and when does Monti or Bidwill think we can compete with any of these teams because it seems like they zero idea what they are doing with no plan in place while our rivals are doing everything in their power to get better.

I read a lot of negativity after the Giants, and it makes me wonder. Did most of the fandom really believe the team could do something this year? Did we look at the same roster? Did we see the same team play last year? Bottom third QB, incomplete O line, no pass rush, bad D line, slow safeties, young unproven CBs, hard schedule, 1st year coach and Rallis. It was a 3 to 6 win team starting the season, and it's performing about like that. Why everyone seems surprised or disappointed? Feels like I'm taking crazy pills...
