Top priority: Ensuring that Cousins and O’Connell jive
Mike Zimmer’s final days with the Vikings were spent in agitation over Kirk Cousins. The ex-coach ”complained openly in coaching meetings” about his quarterback’s lack of “ ‘winning plays,’ “ per Chad Graff of The Athletic. The chilly relationship took its toll, but Minnesota brass is counting on Zimmer’s replacement, Kevin O’Connell, to milk the most out of Cousins, a task that begins with the installation of an offense that should bring a Rams-esque feel to U.S. Bank Stadium. Film maven Nate Tice noted last year’s Vikings ranked dead last employing 11 personnel (1 RB, 1 TE), while the Rams ranked second. Translation: We could see much more of Justin Jefferson all over the formation, including the slot, where he wreaked havoc at LSU. All the big names have returned for the Vikings, but how they’re used could be a new-look treat.
Media Selection of the Day
Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:
- No discussion of politics or religion
- No feeding of the trolls
- Leave the gender hatred at the door
- Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
- Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
- No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
- If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
- While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.
