2018 seen a team coming from the NFC Champ game with a 84 million
Dollar QB, it was Super Bowl or bust? What happened. Immediately offensive line came into question. Starting left Guard Nick Easton suffered a season ending neck injury, right guests Mitch Burger retired and center Pat Elflein couldn?t practice early due to broken leg he suffered in NFC Champ game, in came the replacements who quite frankly couldn?t make the Minnesota Gophers let alone the Vikings. Let?s not forget the offensive line coach suddenly passed away right before training camp. . A top 10 rushing offense became a 30th rush offense, a team who was league leaders in fewest QB pressures became the highest. Defensively the Vikings were still good with slip ups but not as dominant as before. Xavier Rhodes lost a step and defensive end Griffen was MIA for mental health reasons.
So let?s look into 2019, a lot is being imposed on 84 million qb Cousins as many unfairly have dealt him the blame for 2018, his success will depend on that interior line to get the Vikings and Dalvin Cook into a decent running game to get more manageable third down situations. Vikes are expecting a lot from #1 pick center Bradbury and FA Kline at right guard, Elflein should easily slide to left guard, main weakness is still Reiff at left tackle, he stinks. Vikes have one of the best wr duos in Theilen and Diggs and look for Vikes to play many two
Tight end sets with Rudolph and Smith,
Defensively Vikes are fine and not much to be said.
This team needs their FG kicking to drastically improve, too many missed XPT and chip
Shots.
I?m looking at 10 wins as I expect the O line to improve if they don?t improve its 8-8 and if they become stout then the sky is the limit.
9-7 or 10-6 but but but there is an outside chance of a
Collapse especially if the defense ages out more like Rhodes Griffen and Linval Jospeh.. the Vikes are like most North teams, I could see anyone win the division and I could see any one finishing with 7 wins
