vike daddy Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Overbaugh is the only player on Minnesota’s roster who hails from Alaska. He grew up in Anchorage, the state’s largest city. http://www.vikings.com/news/article-1/5-Things-to-Know-About-New-Vikings-LS-Jeff-Overbaugh/e94c60ef-de29-4453-a934-0ff97dc50fba?sf177477906=1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gopherwrestler Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 So now with Pat Elfien back and healthy, what are we going to do with the offensive line in the playoffs after what we saw against the Bears? What do we hope for? What's our best option? Left to Right Options: Reiff - Sirles - Elfien - Berger - Remmers Reiff - Elfien - Berger - Remmers - Hill Reiff - Remmers - Elfien - Berger - Hill Reiff - Berger - Elfien - Remmers - Hill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gnat Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I'd probably go with the bottom option. Berger is the player who I can feel around the most. Or the first option with Sirles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klomp Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I would be shocked if it wasn't back to the norm it's been all year....except Sirles at LG. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel this way too. But like what Klomp said, I would be shocked if they didn't go with the first option. Obviously the staff has confidence in Sirles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Sirles starting probably makes the most sense to avoid moving everyone around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cearbhall Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 It was good to see what Remmers could do at guard in a pinch. That might factor into thoughts for '18. For the playoffs, I expect Remmers back at RT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 what a pleasure it is to have a functioning offensive line, and a few emergency permutations that work also. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Easton be bumped to backup C/G? Why is Isadora worthy of your... adoration? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isidora might work better at RG if they are committed to Easton as a starter. Easton would be the backup center when Berger retires.

If all this happens, does that make OT a higher priority than OG in the 2018 draft? (i.e. Elflein - C, Easton - LG, Isadora - RG, and two of Reiley, Remmers, Hill as starting OTs, with a rookie OT being groomed as a replacement).
