Teams will focus on defending the pass now and McKinnon/Asiata will get 3-5 yards a pop until they draw more defenders into the box, then Sam goes over the top. Plus, less fumbles.

We just lost the league's leading rusher from a team that won 11 games last year with a shitty QB, so let me tell you why he actually sucks.

This is a great team, with an incredible coaching staff. I'm not concerned unless TJ Clemmings hasn't improved at all.

They still might be a great team, and they'll probably continue to play well, but saying it's a good thing that one of the best RBs in the league is out, is just plain stupid

Addition by subtraction. You watch.

No matter how many wins they end up with, even if it's under last years total, you'll still say the team was better. 
 
You have called this coaching staff great, while also in the past suggesting that they don't have enough of a balance with the pass/run game because they feed Peterson, which is really the fault of the coaching staff, not Peterson.

The Vikings' ground game has been historically bad in Peterson's absence, averaging 2.67 yards per carry this season. No team has had a sub-3.00 YPC since 1994.

They were averaging 1.8 per carry when Peterson played, so...
 
Their offensive line is pure dog shit.  Prime Barry Sanders wouldn't do shit behind those scrubs.
