The Rise of the Vikings Underdog Defensive Line

DL was invisible, but I don't think they were given any help either, defensive coaching seemed like a pre season game, totally vanilla, didn't see much stunting or blitzing.  

Ditto on that, I expected much more blitzing if anything. It's not like it was Rogers or Brees back there. 

That was a banged-up Cowboys OL too. 

There's a couple of guys with promise on the DL unit who are being forced to start. Not sure what their ceilings are.

But this years DL is a very weak unit for the Vikings...Imagine that Dl with DH, MP and YN?

My spidey sense tingles a bit in a bad way over this D-line: I don't know if its smoke and mirrors yet. I need more empirical data first. 

Prescience Sticky...

It just felt like smoke and mirrors and unfortunately it is. No Hunter and no Pierce and honestly, not much talent without them.
