It’s difficult to find a season where a head coach proves their worth after racking up 10 losses. But contrary to the opinions of justifiably bothered Vikings fans, head coach Kevin O’Connell did that. It has undeniably been frustrating to watch the Minnesota Vikings throughout the season.

Brian O’Neill was at a loss for words when reporters asked him about Kirk Cousins’ impact on the Minnesota Vikings in the middle of the season. It was Week 8. Minnesota had just beaten the Green Bay Packers 24-10 at Lambeau Field, their only win by multiple scores this season. The Packers had just lost their fourth-straight game, dropping to 2-5, but the Vikings might have been feeling worse in that moment.

The last time the Minnesota Vikings had an offseason quarterback search, they believed they were a quarterback away from Super Bowl contention. While their quarterback of choice, Kirk Cousins, never led them beyond a Divisional Round playoff game, it’s hard to dispute the Vikings’ belief that a team capable of reaching the NFC Championship game with Case Keenum could achieve greater heights with Cousins. But this present Vikings bunch is more than a quarterback away.

It’s easy to be negative right now. Rationality and level-headedness go out the window whenever the Vikings host their archrival at U.S. Bank Stadium. It doesn’t matter if they’re on our fourth or their 24th quarterback of the year, fans expect a showing that’s much more competitive than 33-10. Instead, fans had to wince and watch as the thread of hope this team had been dangling by finally snapped.

The Minnesota Vikings’ 2023 season will come to a close this Sunday in Detroit. Barring a miracle, it will be Minnesota’s last game of the season, given they have a 3% chance of making the playoffs. This summer will be general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and head coach Kevin O’Connell‘s most crucial offseason yet, mostly due to the questions surrounding the quarterback position.

Thank God the Wild won. Could not have handled that shot of Fleury’s kids crying in the stands if they lost.
