Also lol at the second or third post on their board saying "Our (vikings) defense is better than any defense the Panthers have faced this year."

Yeah cause the Broncos D is nothing compared to that Vikings D. LMAO

I called someone out for saying this is the toughest D we've faced this season. However, it turns out that statistically, the Vikes are ranked just better than Denver in terms of Overall D (yards).  What the Broncos far excel at is Pass Defense.

A Vikings analyst tries to outline ways they can stop Kelvin Benjamin.   Lots of words...  We'll see if any of these ideas are successful.

Am I missing something?
His plan is very shortsighted. I realize his article was strictly about limiting KBs effectiveness, and his schemes look viable in theory and if the Panthers only ran two reciever sets the entire game.

I can assume that he under the notion that KB is our only viable wr or receiving option for that matter.
The analyst did not address how the Vikes will scheme for KB, when you throw in Funchess in three WR sets or account for the match up nightmares Olson's presence will cause.

Someone corrects this dude later in the thread, he thought we played the Bills instead of the Broncos.  They really know their opponents.

But statistically, the Vikings are just ahead of the Broncos in terms of total yards allowed so far this season..., so while in many respects it's a silly claim, it is "technically" true depending on which piece of data you use to define "best defense".  Going by yards allowed, Minnesota beats Denver.
