Minnesota Vikings 2007 Season Preview

The Minnesota Vikings is a well-known American football franchise located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The team is a current member of the North Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) in the National Football League (NFL).

ast season the Minnesota Vikings most did not show all of the talent the team had and actually had to struggle to six victories after 3 consecutive .500 plus seasons. Taking into consideration the last season and the events of the preseason, the Vikings will most probably not reap a lot of success this year as well. Fans of the team may be well disappointed when the team fails to win one or even more consecutive seasons in the next few years. Still, there may be some improvements in 2007, if the team works really hard.

he most burning issue for the team in 2006 was their lack of lead. In 4 matches the team had a lead more than 7 points and only in 3 games the Vikings had a lead of more than 14.

he team played quite inconsistently, which is a vivid sign of technical problems in the team. And it is a well-known factor, that when a team starts to play inconsistently, it loses more and more chances to become a winning team.

ome experts predict 7 wins in this season with no serious playoffs. The offense and defense lines may improve and become more productive, but this will most probably not lead to some kind of outstanding results. Also, it is still unclear how the team’s production will change with the new pick Adrian Peterson.
