There were like five games that we lost on the final drive  Cris Hovan lost his energy, but if Kenechi Udeze stays healthy, him and Kevin Williams will be the foundation to a great D-line in the future. Chris Claiborne would be a good OLB, but he isn't good when he is the main guy. That is why the Vikings will likely address that issue this offseason with all of their salary cap. Corey Chavous and Brian Russell aren't great, but Chavous is pretty good and will be good enough to stay. Antoine Winfield was spectacular while he wasn't injured, and Sid Hartman reports that the Vikings plan to sign another defensive player of his caliber. It looks likely that they will draft DT Shaun Cody out of USC, sign a MLB and a DB, and the defense will be improved A LOT next season, and the whole offense will be intact assuming Moss or Bennett isn't traded. On the issue of Bennett or Onterrio, one of them will likely be traded, and that could bring in a defensive starter, maybe Woodson from Oakland or something. Keep your eyes out. If they make the right moves on defense they will be right up there with the Eagles next season...hopefully. |
On paper, unfortunately.
We're still left with Mike Tice.
HOWEVER, Pep has a chip on his shoulder, and is going to beat the shit out of our team, hopefully that will give them some heart. He was pissed this year. He's gonna start beating some ass next season. Like destroying his own players and shit. Him and Birk, gonna keep the locker room in check.
