    Society would be better served not giving mentally ill a massive spotlight to enjoy watching their struggles. You can't tell me much of the NFL media personalities. Radio hosts, writers, TV, etc aren't thankful Aiyuk is giving them material that they will then talk about. The whole situation...

    I think a fair amount of those are penciling in Jayden Daniels to get hurt again too. Nick Shook (whoever he is) probably has us moving on from (an injured) Jayden and drafting Arch Manning or whoever. 4 wins could be in the "you grab the top QB territory".

    https://ftnfantasy.com/nfl/2025-defense-by-number-of-pass-rushers-the-vikings-go-nuts I put this in the FA Thread, but it should probably go here as well. I'll directly highlight just how different our defense is likely to look next season. Sending 3 or fewer rushers at the QB: Vikings = 2.5%...

    What SIP said. This graphic is from 2024, so take it with a bit of a grain of salt here. You can see Cover 3 & Cover 1 are below league averages compared to more 2 High safety looks like Cover 2 and Quarters. [Link] Here's an article talking about the 2025 Vikings Defense from FTN. It...

    Chinn was just OK. Kam Curl was generally above average. This had me thinking... Who doesn't fit as good but have name recognition: Laron Landry, wasn't good except for his great half-season in 2010 before steroids ruined his body. Reed Doughty, he belongs in the "better than JAG but not by...

    I do think Nick Cross at SS will be ok. But Will Harris at FS is probably the weakest link on the whole defense. There's going to be an amazing Training Camp battle about which position is the worst on the roster. Free Safety or Z Receiver?

    Not Quan as much, he's now the 2nd string Nickel. Team apparently didn't play him at Safety once during off-season work.

    Byron Murphy is the Sainristil comp I'm thinking of. Someone without elite measurables, but seems like he could be a good boundary zone corner in the right scheme. Minnesota signed him 3 years ago and he became a pro-bowl caliber player for them. We know Sainristil isn't good in Man coverage...

    And how Sainristil fits. There's a real chance he could play up massively in the scheme (my suspicion), but maybe he never feels at home with what's asked of him and struggles.

    Yes, I think from the preseason to the end of the regular season Deebo noticeably lost a lot of juice. It wasn't just one step slower either. He didn't seem to be a YAC threat anymore. Separation looked much worse.

    Does it though? It improves the WR group, but Diggs was slot only in New England (it's why they swapped him with AJ Brown). We'd still have a question mark for the Z WR. Antonio Williams, Jaylin Lane, Luke McCaffrey, Chig Okonkwo will probably be getting the bulk of their snaps in the slot...

    If this new pressure defense works as advertised with our Front 6/7, then our secondary should be OK. It won't be the weak link on the roster.

    Wonder if that means Amos might start the season on the PUP. Douglas has been a starter since forever, he had a good year last season, I doubt he'd sign on unless it was clear he's got a real shot to play.

    100% took it literally, honestly thought that was the intention of the guy you quoted/linked to. To take it a little less literally, I suppose can question marks adequately be covered up by absurd strengths in other areas? For us, is the overhauled Edge and Linebacker group combined with this...

    The Rams last year got undone by their biggest off-season question mark, and it killed them when it mattered too so they traded for the Chiefs best corner. They have more talent than us, but to say these teams have no worries about their roster is not accurate.

    One of the problems with Conerly is the same as Sam Cosmi at RT experiment. Conerly has more of a Guard body than Coleman who has a classic Tackle body. It can still work, but it is a detriment. I wonder how much of this Conerly/Coleman choice was from our awful OL Coach who got fired. And now...

    I think that type of dream is unrealistic. Because that's literally everybodies dream for every team. Even fans/GM's/coaches/etc of Super Bowl winners wish for that, because those teams tend to get pilfered in Free Agency. Seahawks lost 4 starters in FA, each of them got $12-20million a year...

    I suspect the national media consider Conerly closer to a bust than someone who could make a leap. I think we disagree with that, but that about sums it up. Cause their stances on the other four spots generally mirror ours.
