Not liking Vikings coach Mike Zimmer· Page 2

Vikes have the better and ascending defense. Better HC. A GM who will make moves to improve team other than relying on just draft and UDFA's. They have the better running game. We have the better QB and WR if Jordy Nelson is back to form.

Minnesota added Treadwell who many thought was the best WR in the draft but fell due to poor 40 time. Paired with Diggs and Charles Johnson and Rudloph at TE they have a budding young WR corps.

Week 2 will tell everyone a lot about who the power in this division is going to be this season. I would say it's pretty close to 50-50 as to who is the better team.

Plus, as has been noted the Vikings aren't staying the same ore getting worse. They're getting better. Not so sure I can say the same for us.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

LOL, Dakota! No. I figure if I make one post once in a blue moon I can't get suspended.

I think one Dakota goes an awful long way, here. You must feel like the one voice crying in the wilderness.

Okay, you talked me into it. Maybe, two posts a day. 🙂 I should be safe as long as I don't try stretching to 3. Bad things happen in 3's. 🤣

He and nearly everyone else understands this and somehow you continue to be obtuse. 🤷

While I'm not a Moderator, can I ask we get back to the topic because I personally am enthralled with reading what others are thinking about the Vikings perceived uprising. You hear about Adrian Peterson saying most feel the Vikings are few years away from contending for Super Bowl and his response was "Wait, just wait, this is the year". Unless Teddy Bridgewater can pull off some 2000 Trent Dilfer type of luck/fortune, I just don't see it.

The Vikings don't have the quarterback in place to be a serious contender yet.

I do think they are a few steps behind the Packers yet, although, I could be ... bias. 😂

Just because a bunch of people agree with each other doesn't mean they are WRONG.

Anyway.....my hope is that the Vikings keep being the Vikings, and choke away another season. I STILL can't believe their kicker missed that field goal in the playoffs last season.

I feel like the Vikings are doing a great job with their drafting and their back 7 on defense have the raw potential to be the best in the entire NFL (not saying they'll be able to make the most of that raw potential, as they haven't been able to yet) and they seem to have upgraded their OL this offseason to help out Peterson and Bridgewater. The Vikings could make a Super Bowl push if they get the DL going and offense playing smart and together.
