a thread for what went WELL in 2023 and who played WELL in 2023.

leave yer complainin' about what you didn't like somewhere else, or start yer own thread about it.

this one is about being positive and appreciative and maybe even surprised.

Receivers. 

Jefferson, Addison and Hochenson are fricken studs!!

Yes, keep this group together. 
 

Im really interested in seeing what Ty Chandler can do as a day one starter next year. He ran really well, can he do it for a full season?

Byron Murphy, Jordan Hicks and DJ Wonnum.

 

Without those three and especially without Murphy the last what three games, that defense looked totally different.  That guy is legit and honestly is the only CB they have who is actually solid in coverage and tackling in the open field.  

 

Metellus was great to watch but after those big injuries he was taken advantage of in coverage quite often because of the Vikings lack of a slot corner and Murphy being out.  Still great story and good season for him overall.  

 

I also liked Josh Oliver, wish they got him the ball more, he is the one guy where if he gets the ball physically he looked the part and is big and physical.  Great blocker but honestly wish he was out there more and involved more not just as a blocker.  Yet that is hard to do with Hockenson of course.

Out of a very bad D-Line, Harrison Phillips stood out positively.

I still think he is better suited at end and would benefit from playing next to a game wrecking NT, but he still played good and had a couple TFLs.

Kirk Cousins 

TJ Hockenson

Justin Jefferson

Jordan Addison

It's unfortunate how much injuries impacted this team, along with costly turnovers. 

I hope the league took notice of these guys. They were great for us this year, and hopefully better next season!
