[QUOTE="bigbubbatd, post: 677392, member: 10784"] This has been assumed all week. Bradford is better than Hill and the Vikings gave up a ton to get Bradford and that wasnt to let him sit the bench. The Vikings passing offense didnt look incredibly complex most of last year so I doubt it takes Bradford a really long time to figure it out and he has had to learn a lot of new offenses. The Packer's defense vs the Viking's offense will be determined a lot in the trenches. It isnt a strength for either team. Actually the Vikings offensive line is probably their biggest weakness and the Packers defensive line is probably the Packers as well (or ILB). Interesting stat in the last 8 games of last season and the first of this season AP has only went over 3.5 ypc two times! So that is 7 of 9 games at 3.5 or under including 2 against the Packers. So their oline is struggling to open holes for Peterson and PFF said that they allowed pressure on over 1/3 of Hills drop backs last week. I expect a very inspired performance by the Vikings. I think the Packers need to weather what will be a very emotional first quarter for the Vikings. Minnesota is missing two key players on defense and I think that will matter more than some Viking fans are saying. They now only have one above average player in their secondary in Harrison Smith, now he is very above average but Newman, Waynes, Munnerlyn, and Sandejo are all average or below average. Their run defense is now weaker as well. They dont have as much depth on the interior as they do on the end. Doubt they line hunter up at DT a lot but I guess they could. Should be places for Lacy to run though. My worry with the Vikings defense is the pass rush. They can really bring it from a lot of different places with Griffen, Barr and others. That along with their overall team speed will make this a great test. [/QUOTE]
