I know a lot of people already have a bad feeling about this year but look on the bright side. We got better and the Vikings and Bears got worse.
Our young team of rookies is now a young team of 2nd year players. Our OL is better, our secondary is without Carrol and showed signs of teamwork at the end of last season. Our D line is better now that KGB isn't always tired from being run over. Not to mention we got a brand new monster DT who will hopefully keep some lineman off our awesome linebackers so they can run around kicking ass. Bubba Franks won't do worse. It was a weird year for anyone who was blocking last year. I strongly suspect that Bubba will have a bounce back to the sure-handed TD catching Bubba of old. Our young Receivers get a chance to step up and flash their talent. Nobody really knows what they can do with the exception of DD who is a stud.
The Bears lost Alfonso Boone and gained a cancerous Briggs. They lost their Defensive coordinator. Most importantly of all they failed to replace their horrible quarterback who flashed signs of luck last year but eventually proved he had no business as a starting QB for an NFL team. The amazing part is that the two guys behind him are actually worse. No defense can bail them out of this offensive train wreck.
The Queens also lost their Defensive coordinator and did almost nothing else to improve their unspectacular Defense. They were a monster against the run last year due only to the fact that their secondary is swiss cheese. They have a few guys coming back from injury but unless there is some very unQueen-like stepping up, a bad defense got worse. On offense they cut Brad Johnson in place of totally unproven Toothless Jackson who they are rushing into the starting role. They also gave up on Wiggins, who is one of the only Vikings with a history of catching the football and are trying to replace him with "the guy who backed up Jeremy Shockey" and a division 3 high jumper!!! Best of luck, I'll stick with Bubba any day. They had better hope Peterson can play because this offense sucks and might still be on the decline. But the single thing that will DESTROY the Vikings? The NFL's new behavior policy. Kiss half their roster goodbye.
Before anyone replies I realize that I will never be able to look past my raw unbridled hatred for the Bears and the Queens and under any circumstances I will always consider them worse than the Packers but I honestly can say that I feel good about this season. Remember that their schedules get harder too. I see playoffs in our future. GO PACK!!!
