The Minnesota Vikings’ Path to Have a Respectable Defense | The Minnesota Football Party



The Minnesota Vikings is not exactly a juggernaut on paper. Sam Ekstrom poses the question to Arif Hasan and Luke Braun, what is the path for defensive respectability? Plus, can KJ Osborn be a legit WR2, and what should the rotation look like at running back for the Vikings?

  1. I'm so opportuned irrespective of the economic crisis and financial conditions I am still able to earn $33,500 returns from my initial $6,500 every 10days.

  2. Great Listen. Like Flores pedigree & resume. Agree he is the path to better Defense. Flores CB Pk: Smaller slower CB with Good 2022 PFF Grade. Did Flores demand that Pk? Kwesi system seems more traits & combine thresholds based. We won't know how good Blackmon is for a few years so I'm just wondering if scouting is is still concensus or Flores has all the clout… Your thoughts?

  3. My main thought on your run vs pass defense segment – is that if Hicks is on the field we Vikes Fans better hope & pray the blitzes get home. LOL I mean he was never able to stay with or even near anyone… And now he is a year older. Ouch!

  4. Like KLj and that he has different skillset and more physical then other Vikings WRs. 1,000 yards is less than 60 yards a game. I like KJ but with Rookie deal ending – I think KJ could struggle to not be replaced by Nailor. It might be the KJ model is not as needed in Vikings 2 TE offense. Not saying KJ isn't a solid WR we can trust. Just reading tea leaves of younger more explosive & cheaper WRs and team's reduced need for WR physicality that KJ brings.

  5. I went through 30 sports writers , bloggers and mockers. Not one of them said Addison was a top draft pick. Stroud carter and Richardson were some of the comments on who was great picks!

  6. I just hope to see a more aggressive approach to defense. I figure they will give up yards either way, but if they are aggressive, they might create turnovers, or put the opponent in a difficult down and distance situation. And no more 12 yards cushion on 3rd and 8!!!
