Here is a thread to predict how the Vikings will do this season.
I see them going 8-8. I think they will lose 2 games because of the kicking game. I think Cook will be great when healthy but only plays 8 games. The defense takes a step back after losing Sheldon Richardson and Linvan Joseph/Harrison Smith/Xavier Rhodes/Everson Griffin getting a year older.

I predict the Vikings will be better against the run than last year. Against the pass? Depends on health of the secondary. Griffin is likely going to a better player than he was last year even if he is older etc.
I'd guess they win around 10 games if they stay reasonably healthy. Oline tackle depth and DBs are the worry aside from the obvious of Cousins staying healthy.

12-4. Oline finally steps up. Defense returns strong.

Obviously, I was a Wolves fan for too long.

Wolves fan is a different type of disappointment. It's more like being a Browns fan. Hope every year and you suck. Vikings are good enough to be interesting and god enough to get your hopes up then rip your heart out.

Agree with that, but I have that feeling we are going to be average again this year. Which is like a great year for the Wolves.
The Vikings are in the hunt at least ever 5-10 years. The Wolves never get out of the lodge.

I wonder if the Patriots called us about Brent Jones.

Probably but I'd need something pretty good to trade him. Seems like his pretty good quality depth and across the board people covering the team have basically raved about him. Does anyone else think he looks...thicker this year?

I agree. That is why I wonder if the Patriots called on him with their center having blood clot issues.

I always predict disappointment and I've yet to be wrong.
