Around SBN: SB Nation NFL Power Rankings for Week 11

Silver lining

I do realize that the sky is falling, the Vikings seem to be imploding, and that the coach seems to have an IQ smaller than his pants size.  However, luckily the rest of the division has been stinking it up pretty bad so far this year.  The Vikings are going to be getting back some key players over the next few games, which could make all the difference in the world.  LT Mckinney will be returning from his suspension this week, which could allow for the offense more than the 2 seconds to get the pass off we have been seeing so far this year.  FS Madieu Williams will be returning at some point in the near future, and although Tyrell Johnson has filled in admirably so far this year, I do believe Williams will be a huge improvement to the pass defense.

 

Greener pastures coming up guys, just close your eyes and drink the purple Brenavin kool-aid.

Softer Schedule

going down the stretch as well. I really do not see any teams in the next 5 weeks that the Vikes can’t beat. New Orleans might be tough, but I think our running game should really dominate that soft defense. After that, games with Detroit and Chicago make it very possible to go into the bye-week above .500.

Trying to be optimistic (which I truly know can be difficult for us Vikings fans), I would rather have this team peak later on rather than at the beginning of the season.
