    This hope is different. This is different from the Keenum year too.

    I had hope coming into the season, and that got thrown out the window with a 1-4 start and losing Jefferson. All that was left was frustration. I couldn’t understand how I could feel I was watching a better team play worse. The defense was clearly better, the offense still clicked, but we couldn’t get a TO to go our way.

    Then the 49ers game happened, and my hope was restored. Preseason I predicted leaving the niners game 3-4, but with a loss to them. We were back on track for a possible division. And on MNF to boot! Who’s next? The struggling Love boat? Bring em on.

    Now we’re at Lambeau and it was feeling good…

    Something in my brain snapped along with Kirk’s Achilles. It turns out it took Achilles to fix what Pandora couldn’t finish and let hope leave too. I have no more hope, no expectations. I am now a fan of let’s see what happens. I don’t expect them to win today or any game into the future, but I know they can as they have shown a resiliency that I haven’t seen on a Vikings team in a long time.

    Dobbs, with this team, coached how it is, has inspired confidence with no expectations. When Dobbs drops back I expect him to get sacked and then he pulls a spin and is 3 yards past the line of scrimmage with a head of steam. I don’t think my brain will allow me to accept that I can expect him to be a starting QB and so I can’t be disappointed. That’s totally not fair to him either, but it’s due to how it’s all played out more than anything personal or rational.

    When we shit the bed in Denver, you’ll lose it again. It’s all good.

    As a season ticket holder of 12 years, I have zero expectations every year because you know in the end, no matter what, the Vikings will find a way to lose. Its written into the teams DNA. Maybe they will finally pull one out… the eagles were losers for decades before they won a Super Bowl… but the eagles also have an S-Tier GM. Jury is still out on Kwesi.
