Vikings' Coach Assigns Blame After 27-Point Loss
Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell took responsibility for the team's 27-point defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Vikings, who entered the game at 3-3, were in need of a win to regain momentum while awaiting the return of starting quarterback JJ McCarthy, who is sidelined with an ankle injury.
After trailing 21-3 at halftime, the Vikings ultimately fell 37-10, failing to make the game competitive beyond the opening quarter.
We got outplayed... There are no excuses — injuries, short week, whatever it is. That is not, in any way, shape, or form, our standard of what we want to put on the field.
O'Connell made it clear that the defeat wasn't on the defense or quarterback Carson Wentz, but rather on him, and emphasized the need for the team to own the loss and move forward.
