LOS ANGELES -- Minnesota Vikings coach Mike Zimmer struggled to wrap his head around how his defense was embarrassed for a second straight week following a 38-31 loss to the Los Angeles Rams.
The Vikings let Los Angeles put up 556 yards of offense Thursday night, allowing Jared Goff to complete 26 of 33 passes for 465 yards and five touchdowns and post a perfect passer rating (158.3) in the process.
In five years in Minnesota, Zimmer has never seen his defense struggle so badly against the pass. The same issues continue to pop up each game with opposing receivers being left wide open, and Zimmer is at a loss for how to fix it.
