Every back on the roster should contribute to our running attack 3- Be hot early in games & score points early so that Flores can dial up more aggressive blitzes to close out games Less 3-and-outs. Consistency through entire game, not just hot in specific quarters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consistency through entire game, not just hot in specific quarters. it was clear to see the difference between KOCs scripted plays to start the game/ start the half. He really has plenty of room to improve in the play calling aspect of being a HC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can Mattison honestly replace Cook's production? I'm curious to see what happens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough of what Boomer says is simply wrong, that it gives me the idea that he got caught in a game of telephone. He talked with this person, who talked with that person, who heard from another person, etc. I’m guessing that the Vikings were offering Cook a restructured contract at $7M per year. But releasing Cook took that offer and that contract off the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted September 17, 2023 Author Share Posted September 17, 2023 Losing their first two games isn’t fun, but when the offense is playing really well, that’s a huge win. After averaging 5.9 yards per play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Vikings averaged a whopping 6.44 yards per play against the Eagles. That would give you a first down every other play. Really impressive stats from the Vikings and something they can hang their hat on. https://vikingswire.usatoday.com/lists/vikings-stats-2023-season-justin-jefferson-danielle-hunter/?utm_campaign=trueAnthem_manual&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwAR3MdYoJCRgA8WuG0B4U2_V-ujfiuhjnKJ3bmKJdG4tQrrJB15g7CfUhSbM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
