Vikings QB Kirk Cousins, RB Dalvin Cook and coach Mike Zimmer talk about the loss

The Minnesota Vikings redid its roster this offseason, but were still tabbed by fans and analysts to contend for a playoff spot.

To do so, the team will need to get a lot better in a short amount of time. The Vikings fell to 0-2 when they lost to the Indianapolis Colts Sunday. The offense scored just 11 points.

Asked about why the offense is struggling, Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said “I’m not sure why exactly. But we’ve got to get better fast,” per Chad Graff of The Athletic.

Vikings running back Dalvin Cook was asked about what on offense has to get better. Here’s what he said:

“Everything. … We can get better, period,” Cook said, via Graff. “There’s a lot of things out there for us to go correct.”

Cousins said that Sunday was not a sharp day for the team. That might be an understatement. Here’s what he said:

“It was just one of those days where we couldn’t get anything going,” Cousins said, via Chris Tomasson of the Pioneer Press.
