There are so many seasons I can recall seeing the same thing over and over and over again.

The Vikings Defense playing a prevent style defense. The QB snaps the ball, Tight End runs a slant to the middle, grabs 8-12 yards. Rinse, repeat, over and over again.

I know the blitz heavy defense isn’t for everyone and it comes with it’s own challenges, but it’s so refreshing to no longer see teams eat away at the middle while we’re trying to prevent big pass plays.

All we were doing was delaying the inevitable.

It’s also a much more fun defense to watch and a far more aggressive type of play. I like seeing our defense engaged and pumped up and running a blitz heavy defense. It seems the players get more pumped up as well.

That’s all I had to say, I am happy.

    The amount of big plays and points we gave up last season was so exhausting. Anytime our D took the field last year I assumed we’d be giving up massive chunk plays and a TD. So frustrating
