When was the last time the Vikings had an All-Pro player?

[Montana Tom]

Much less four (first and second team)?  I am drawing a blank.

Adrian Peterson or Jared Allen?  They had to have been All-Pros when AD had 2000 yards and Allen had 22 sacks (?)...

Looks like Patterson was the last one in 16:

Thanks Faithful...years with more than one 1st team All-Pro (can't find records of 2nd team All-Pro)...but this parallels the strongest teams in franchise history...look at the gaps.

You're damn straight there's a correlation in # of All Pro Players and winning!

I have always contended NFL coaches are only as good as their players. Just ask Mike McCarthy (insert devil emoji here).

RS hit his stride the last 4 years and it's showing in the win/loss column as Vikes have won division from GB 2 of the last 3 years.
