Not sure if this has been posted or not, but it's a great breakdown of what BFlo does to confuse offenses...in a preseason game.

The only way to counter a BFlo D is running well, quick rhythm passing and/or target the middle of the field.

The Ravens with Henry and Lamar are so unique and can do this probably as good as anyone. And yah, they struggled this early in the season with our D.

Just imagine this Vikings D if they can play from a comfortable lead once in a while? Make opponents offenses one-dimensional?

Remember those days from 24?

As always, Vikings D and Ravens O will be a handful for opponents.

I was thinking the same thing. If the defense can just come close to duplicating what they did last year, Kyler Murray just has a solid year (honestly, I'm expecting a career year), and they can pair that with an improved running game and a willingness to stick to it, then this team could be really special.

I hope the challenge of rearing so many new, young guys is energizing for Flo and his staff...

I'll bet it is.

I agree, this years squad could be a handful, especially as the season progresses and if K1 is as good here as we hope.
