NFL.com thinks Vikes are sitting pretty
Here's what NFL.com thinks we should do about the trade deadline.
Minnesota Vikings: Don't do a thing
Marc Sessler: Every team comes packed with strengths and weaknesses. The Vikings,
though, are leaning on a formula that feels destined to take them deep
into the NFC playoffs: They have a Super Bowl-worthy defense and just
enough from an offense missing rookie running back Dalvin Cook.
It makes no sense to jettison one of the quarterbacks -- not this year,
and not considering the durability questions -- and Minnesota has
gotten by in the backfield with Latavius Murray and Jerick McKinnon. In this exercise, this is one team that should sit tight and not fiddle with the roster's chemistry.
Potential compensation: A Lombardi trophy.
I agree, I have seen various suggestions from different talking heads, but honestly I don't think Ive seen a player being mentioned as trade bait that would be able to come in and make a big contribution. I don't even think I would trade away a receiver at this point ( as has been suggested) yes it's part of the business, but team chemistry can be a fickle thing and when it's not broke. ...well then leave it the hell alone.
Superbowl or bust!
Cleveland defense is pretty good. Vikings need to score points early, then they can pin their ears back.
