I’m not giving the ball back to love. That means it’s 4 down territory no matter where you’re at the field. If it’s 4th and 1 on your own 40 you’re getting that yard.

That’s such good play calling man. Just elite stuff not running it there on 2nd down. Absolutely brilliant

Man I can’t stand some hardcore Vikings fans. Some of the takes im already hearing after the game from some Vikings fans.

“KOC doesn’t know how to call plays in close games.”

“Can’t wait for JJ, that Darnold INT is why he can’t be trusted”

Has to be perfection for some to be happy haha. Darnold was elite today and KOC is at worst a top 3 play caller in the league.

There is going to be at minimum a 14 win team that will be a wild card team. That’s just ridiculous

Dang, it’s like the NFL knows that the last regular season game would be an epic showdown between the Vikings and the Lions for the #1 seed. I can’t wait till next week

There is a weird portion of Vikings fans that believe KOC isn’t a good play caller.

Wanted him to be more conservative in his play calling in the 4th to eat up more time. Even though Vikings couldn’t run the ball at all (less than 3 yards per carry).

Those people are straight up morons. That line of play calling doesn’t work when you have elite QBs like Love. You don’t want to ever give them back the ball under any circumstance

Every play caller gets criticism from a fan base. You should check out the Niners forum during a game. Shanahan gets a ton of hate lol. Same is true for McVay.

The only person in there I really chat with is Bisme. He's a die hard Celtics fan like me. I noticed last year during the playoffs how rough it gets. Mods were dishing out all kinds of warnings. At times it was brutal when certain fan bases were going at it.
