But hopefully, the defense will be better at taking the ball away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 If Darnold can maintain a 2:1 TD:INT ratio, I think we’ll be in good shape. For some reason I get the sense that Darnold with Jefferson and O’Connell is going to have similar results as Jeff George did with Moss and Green in 1999. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would certainly be okay, just as long as they don't end up having to face the "Greatest Show on Turf" (although I still think the '98 Vikings offense was better than the '99 Rams offense, yet the Rams defense was far superior to that of the Vikings). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, most of their defense is on their rookie deals or small number vet deals like for Dalvin Tomlinson, Z, and Shelby Harris. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelKing728 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 A winning season likely means the offense was a knock out and KOC gets extended! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 After all that's happened in the last week I honestly think the 2024 season boils down to KOC being able to scheme up an effective run game - something we've lacked in 2022 & 2023 under KOC. Darnold can be a good QB but not if the whole offense depends on his arm & especially not if the offense is one dimensional 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Jones is the best back O'Connell has had in Minnesota. I will wait to see if his running game plan continues to be uninspired, and if he abandons the running game after the first offensive series.

I'm not sure if uninspired is the correct wording, I'd go with ineffective. KOC has said all of the right things regarding the utilization of the run game but he hasn't come through. So I'm partially with you in that I'll believe it when I see it. Adding Jones will hopefully help with that and perhaps Kene can bust a few explosive runs this year as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Quote Which offenses will light up the scoreboard this season, and which will fall flat? We’ve projected how every unit will fare and ranked them from best to worst. 26. Minnesota Vikings Look out—the Sam Darnold truthers are back, baby! Let me be clear. I have nothing against Darnold. It would be a fun story if he salvaged his career and played well for the Vikings. But I think many are dramatically overrating the likelihood of that happening. https://www.theringer.com/nfl/2024/8/21/24224022/2024-nfl-offense-ranking-green-bay-packers-houston-texans-kansas-city-chiefs Sheil hates the Vikings apparently.

If Darnold is just slightly above average, this offense will be a fringe Top 10 unit. Not to mention that the Vikings could be playing from behind a lot.
