Allen - Williams - Williams - Edwards with Robison and Jimmy Kennedy rotating in on the defensive line. A lot of base 4-3 looks to keep Chad, Ben, and EJ all on the field. Winfield - Griffen - Madieu Williams - Tyrell Johnson. Thank god for the pass rush hiding those safeties 😂😂 Jared Allen is live tweeting the game! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duluther Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Winfield played with such fire. Great int and a great TFLs well into the backfield a few plays ago. I wish Jr had prototypical hws for a modern day CB so he would fit our needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was amazing how great that team was, especially that front seven. Tyrell Johnson was a flat out awful safety though, major weak point of the team, not to mention the Corners outside of Winfield. Helps show, just think how great Danielle Hunter would be if Kevin Williams was the DT with him. Might show that Vikings need to invest in not only another DE but a pass rusher DT. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffen was actually pretty good that year. But outside of Winfield and him, it was not great in that secondary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
byuvike88 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Bryant Mckinnie 6'8" 350 lbs Phil Loadholt 6'8" 340 lbs Man those were some big tackles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember his first game with the Vikes in 08 when he made that pick in the endzone against the Texans. Not sure he really made a play after that, And Johnson was just awful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But outside of Winfield and him, it was not great in that secondary Griffen was good tackling but his ball skills were pretty bad. Granted I did like him coming out of Texas but as a pro he disappointed overall, but at least he was better than Chris Cook, he was not good at all. Husain Abdullah at times was decent at safety but overall never really materialized. Asher Allen had moments as a nickel corner but very quite became an elite player. That was pretty sweet having McKinnie and Loadholt, those two were fun to watch and Loadholt if he did not get injured he could have became a very good pro. He had a good run but it seemed short run.
