3) MINNESOTA VIKINGS 
Blue players: Dalvin Cook, RB (IR); Everson Griffen, DE; Danielle Hunter, DE; Anthony Barr, LB; Eric Kendricks, LB; Xavier Rhodes, CB; Harrison Smith, S.
The Vikings are yet another defense-led squad with the kind of talent to overcome a question mark at QB and hoist the trophy at the end of the season. Mike Zimmer's defensive crew features at least two disruptive playmakers on every level, which elevates the overall play of the group.

VIKINGS' QB CONUNDRUM: Only a matter of time before Teddy's starting
Minnesota head coach Mike Zimmer has guided his team to the top of the NFC North through the first 10 weeks of the season, but how he handles his quarterback situation could determine whether or not the Vikings will remain in contention down the stretch. The grizzled coaching veteran has to decide if he should continue to ride a perennial QB2 in the midst of a hot streak or hand the reins over to the team's former franchise quarterback who is just working his way back from an injury that threatened to end his career.
In Case Keenum, Zimmer has an experienced journeyman who has seemingly found his groove in the Vikings' system. In eight games, the sixth-year pro has completed 64.9 percent of his passes for 1,914 yards, posting an 11:5 TD-to-INT ratio and a 92.6 passer rating. Those numbers are certainly solid for a starting quarterback, but they are also well above the production Keenum has posted for most of his career. Prior to this season, Keenum had never posted a completion rate above 60.9 or a passer rating in the 90s. Thus, we are seeing him play his best football during this mini-stint as a starter.
