Game Preview by Gregg Rosenthal

I am curious to see how Gannon game plans against Kyler. This may be an underrated storyline this season against GB with Murray at the helm.

I'm sure there's a book on Kyler, as there is with any QB. Strangely enough, teams LIKE to blitz Murray which I'm a little surprised by considering his playmaking ability outside the pocket. I'm very interested to see what happens with great route runners like Jefferson and Addison when Murray consistently buys more time in the pocket with his escapability, there should be big chunk shots downfield. Minnesota needs to get pressure on Love, I'm not sure what kind of pass rush we're going to be able to consistently bring. Getting excited! 😄

1). I hope defenses play lots of zone vs Vikings (so does K1)

2). I dont know what kind of pass rush we'll be generating when not blitzing?

• DT/Gink will get their fair share, not sure what that DL can generate straight up the middle by themselves

• Banks will need time and Citrus is probably never going to be a J.Randle at it - probably more a Jordan Davis type (4-5 sacks) per.

• Would love not to have that mid/middle of the field so exposed

Will the Vikings make the unknown MarShawn Lloyd the next superstar?

I am only asking this so it won't happen.

Oh wow...I guess I'd forgetten Gannon ended up in Green Bay. That could be a very interesting battle. Will there be a midfield hug after the game?

Gannon will obviously know Murray's tendencies, but this will also be a base defense Murray's seen before. I'm sure Gannon will change things up to keep Murray guessing, but I'm also sure KOC will use Murray in a much different way than how he was used in Arizona. Very curious to see how this plays out. 8 more sleeps.
