Vikings 2023 thread

[Nosferatu]

So, how is everyone feeling about the upcoming season?

The defense will be better because they can't be worse, I really like Flores, it's a shame this is probably a one year ride though, he will improve the defense enough to get another head coaching shot IMO.

I am a little worried about the interior offensive line, like I always am I guess.

I am also a little worried about Addison, he has legit skill to be a great #2 but he is so small, I worry he's not going to be able to stay healthy and will miss chunks of time each year.

I think all this Detroit talk is a little over the top, I do believe they will be the team closest to the Vikes in the standings but we are still the team to beat.

10 - 7 maybe 11 - 6 is what i'm thinking.

It seems like the Vikings are cursed to have offensive and defensive coordinators that are gone within 1 - 2 years max because they either don't cut the mustard, or are too good to stick around any longer than that.

Vikes trade Lowe to Pats for a 6th round pick.

Guy must not be very good if he can't beat out any of the OL for a job.

Don't mind going 0-3, but ol and kicker big concern

Signed some OL depth, but that's not what the interior line needs, it needs better players.

Vikes favored by 6 in their opener...kiss of death.

Get back from the gym, turn on the game, and the first play I see for the season is a fumbled snap.

 

[PnkPanther]

Too many turnovers

 

[PnkPanther]

That should seal it

Offensive line stinks again.

Sure glad they addressed their weaknesses during the offseason. I still think they can win 6-7 games.

I'd say 7-9

But early schedule is rough and they dropped one they couldn't afford to drop

I always enjoy these after a Viking game.

Knee Jerk Reactions - Week 1

What the heck happened out there? What went wrong? Interior OL – stop me if you’ve heard this before. Bradbury went down early with a back injury early and the guards were terrible. Austin...

How is Philly only a 7.5 point favorite Thursday night?

Might call my bookie

I'm floored that Philly's slaughter of our Vikes hasn't begun yet after those fumbles.

 

[PnkPanther]

Just getting kicked in teeth on LOS

 

[PnkPanther]

Hang onto the ball jfc

Hang onto the ball jfc

Too much to ask, apparently.

What is that Pnk, 6 turnovers in 1.5 games?
