How about that Defense - DeepFreeze05 - 12-21-2025
That's pretty amazing in this day and age.

Ssssshhhhhhhh. We don’t want Flores getting snagged. We have a significant talent drop off in the secondary but it’s working.

Ha, game threads show that fans are so over the Florez hype and he is so over rated. Clearly the Vikings will be far better off without him...

Getting snagged where? HC? Highly doubt that happens.

Few bright spots this year...
BFlo and that D have been one of em. They deserve to be mentioned with 17, 09 and a few others even further back that I can remember.

Flores and the defense are the only reasons we've been competitive this season and won the games that we have. Flores has earned every dime he's going to get this offseason whether that's in Minnesota or somewhere else. He's the best DC this franchise has had since Tony Dungy

There should be no doubt in anyone's mind that this team would be in the hunt for the division title if we had simply gotten average QB play. Vikings need to pay Flores top DC money.

I'm not so sure. Injuries have been brutal this year and there's been a steep learning curve with KOC as a playcaller. It took him until week 14 to start to figure things out. I think things ultimately set up for us to be a .500 team this year regardless, but better quarterback play might have made things interesting.
