Thanks for the read Singer.
I can't help but to agree with the write in only one aspect.
That aspect is they haven't put teams away whereas the Saints and Colts do.
But as far as being one of the best in the league there is no doubt they are.
They have several pro bowl players and several pro bowl calibur players.
The OL is playing better.
The STs are playing better.
The pass defense is the only thing that worries me.
Other than that they are scoring 32 points a gaame.
Their defense is stout for 3 quarters of every game so it is just a matter of fixing the other 8 minutes or so they are on defense.
I think that could be fixed.

This, along with the 400th win, sure didn't get much play.
Wonder why?

Thanks for the read.

Now that he mentions it, we have been pretty good in the number 5 area.

lol.

7. Tackle well: Not close. I just saw Ray Rice and he's still running untouched down Hennepin Ave.

The Saints are peaking now. There is time for teams to figure out how to counter what they are doing. Whether they can or not is debatable.

I would rather see the Vikings hit their peak come playoff time.

Vikings have plenty to work on despite a good start.
That means this already good team can get better.

And that should be a concern to any team the Vikings face.

Finally, we now have the official list of 9 items of what it takes to be a great team.
What makes it even better is that each one can be graded without any subjectivity.
The official result according to his grading scale is that we are good, not great.
I only wish there was more granularity in the final grading, say a "somewhat" or "very" to see if you are leaning more towards good,great, or shitty.

Wonder how the last 10 SB winners graded out on that scale.

Seriously, wasn't that bad of a list for a random thought capture for an article.
