Someone is going to step up
Waking up Monday morning the Minnesota vikings find themselves sitting a top not only the NFC North, but the NFC. When setting goals for the season every team has aspirations to be hoisting the Lombardi trophy and work from there. The Vikings are on the precipice of achieving their first goal, winning the division. Mike Zimmer has been preaching from day one, "one game at a time" the Vikings with a win in Charlotte, will clinch the North Division. The next goal, playing a home playoff game, becomes a little closer to reality. It will not be easy, but the Vikings have control of that. It's the start of the last quarter of the season. The 2017 Version of the Vikings has not been without adversity, but with an improved offense it's making the performance of the Vikings Defense a little under the radar. If the last quarter of the season goes like the Vikings 4th quarter defense of this year, the Vikings may very well be hoisting it's ultimate goal. The Vikings have allowed an average of 4 points in the 4th quarter of games this season, 4! Having shutout 6 of it's 12 opponents in the 4th quarter this year and allowing an average of just 7 points in the second half of games this year. The Vikings have won 8 straight and have not even played their best game yet. Each week someone steps up and makes a play, each series someone steps up makes play. The Vikings are a TEAM that is greater than the sum of it's parts. The target of this weeks goal... Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers
WELCOME TO WEEK 14 OF VELSPAR
