Okay, we see a lot of "expert" power rankings and such, but where do YOU rank our Vikings team?
Our very own Danchat spent some time on that subject in his recent article:
Ranking Every NFL Team - 2019
Here is what he had to say about the Vikes:
Yeah, the eff, Danchat? 18th? 18th?!?!
Head over into NFL Talk (y'all know we have an NFL Talk section, right?!?!) and see the rest of his rankings! How the heck did we drop to 18th?!

Ranking Every NFL Team - 2019
Here is what he had to say about the Vikes:
#18 - Minnesota Vikings
Added: RG Josh Kline, DT Shamar Stephen, C Garrett Bradbury, TE Irv Smith Jr., HB Alexander Mattison
Lost: HB Latavius Murray, DT Sheldon Richardson, SS Andrew Sendejo
Well, this ranking isn't going to win me any points on Purple Pain. The Vikings are coming off of a massively disappointing 8-7-1 season, but they're returning with mostly the same team. While the offense should be better thanks to Stefanski & Kubiak, they only found one true needle-mover to help the O-line - first rounder Garrett Bradbury. The defense continues to age and several players are starting to decline. The special teams unit is a perennial disaster. Add on to that a QB who can't win big games, and it would be easy to see the Vikings get lost in a highly competitive NFC conference.
Strengths: WR, DB
Weaknesses: OL, ST
Added: RG Josh Kline, DT Shamar Stephen, C Garrett Bradbury, TE Irv Smith Jr., HB Alexander Mattison
Lost: HB Latavius Murray, DT Sheldon Richardson, SS Andrew Sendejo
