[QUOTE="paulska, post: 502170, member: 557"] I don't make that assumption, but I hear what you're saying. One reason I feel that the improvement/sudden impact will need to come from the three rookies is because the Vikes haven't shown the ability to draft and develop young talent the way the Packers have been able to do. I don't mean to say that we have an airtight process where we have elite talent at a vast number of positions, only that in most cases the people starting for us have been in our systems since being drafted or signed from college, and that their proficiency is definitively tied to the coaching and role they have been given to play. While I hate playing against him, Allen is a sheer force of nature and unreal competitor; I do have my doubts about his ability at this point in his career to be consistently healthy enough to deliver the dominance we have grown accustomed to seeing. Robison remains an up and down quantity, and given the way the Vikes D has been coached, that won't change much. Aside from Antoine Winfield, who else in the defensive backfield (OK, Darren Sharper several years back) has really risen to widespread recognition as a top player for the Vikes? They have plenty invested in the talent at those positions based on draft and free agent signings, but little meaningful return on them. To me, the Vikes just don't coach positionally as well as most of our positional coaches do. I agree wholeheartedly that this season is going to be interesting, not just to see what happens with the rest of the teams in the division, but with us too- can we continue to be consistent in execution in areas of strength, and can we become more proficient and effective in areas where we've been lacking? Fun stuff to see unfold for sure... [/QUOTE]
