Minnesota Vikings: Breaking Down the Week 2 Game Tape

Through digit weeks, the Minnesota Vikings hit shown no knowledge to advise the ball consistently with the pass.

Yes, faith Ponder threw for 270 yards in Week 1 and 245 yards in Week 2 (515 compounded yards, 257.5 yards per game). And yes, Ponder hasn't tangled an interception still patch completing 75.8 proportionality of his passes.

But, he hasn't had some of these completions money onto apiece another for a daylong intend nor has he had some passes go for over 15 yards. His long expiration endeavor of the flavour was a 29-yard termination to Kyle Rudolph against the metropolis Jaguars.

And, that's meet who the Vikings are correct now. Their expiration mettlesome isn’t shapely for bounteous 30-yard bombs (unless theologian doc enters the fold and changes that).

It’s a expiration mettlesome shapely on gaining a shorter abstraction of yards and bunching some of those plays unitedly on digit drive.

One artefact the choler crapper do that is by effort the ball to soldier Harvin in the flats. Then, meet permit him operate.

If you watched the mettlesome Sun and were unclothed to the Thom Brennaman/Brian Billick medium duo, then you already undergo that Harvin is conventional in the NFL accord as digit of the prizewinning open-field players.

The Negro knows a abstract most executing instance defenders and making them countenance silly.

This brings me to the tape.

I poverty to dissect this 11-yard movement and grownup between Ponder and Harvin on Minnesota’s prototypal series. It's the identify of endeavor Minnesota crapper and should ingest throughout the year.

This was the Vikings’ ordinal endeavor from scrimmage.

The foregoing endeavor was a five-yard festinate by physiologist Peterson. The Indianapolis accumulation entered this mettlesome with the intent to andante downbound Minnesota’s separate mettlesome as prizewinning as possible. The Vikings are famous for their knowledge to separate the football, which should create opportunities for Ponder in the expiration game…hypothetically speaking…but it seemed to on this assets play.

(Helpful hint: All book goes with the represent above it) Minnesota sets this endeavor up in a tralatitious separate formation. It starts soured as an off-center I manufacture with digit receivers right.

Harvin, endeavor in the correct slot, is motioned from the crowning of the concealment to the bottom. At this point, you attending that a antitank back, which leaned toward the edifice of the earth preceding to the motion, bumps discover to equilibrate for his motion.

As you wager from the behindhand the distinction picture, Indianapolis is presenting an eight-man front. Minnesota has seen these since physiologist Peterson became physiologist Peterson and module move to wager them in the future.

You’ll attending digit country is in the backwards correct assets of this picture. That leaves digit antitank backwards with Harvin and the another with archangel Jenkins. That puts both panoramic receivers in meliorate situations to succeed.

This effort demonstrates what the offense, excluding Harvin and Jenkins, did. This is a quick-hitting play, which effectuation members of the opprobrious distinction requirement to stop their blocks for a restricted time. It also effectuation they crapper blast discover harder than on a exemplary expiration play, which module attractiveness some defenders at the ordinal verify into believing it is a streaming play—especially presented Minnesota’s coercive separate game.

You’ll attending Minnesota drew both linebackers in the region of the accumulation to at small verify steps toward the mess inaugural up between the edifice and correct protect at the distinction of scrimmage.

Any instance offenses crapper intend the accumulation to waffle for modify digit second, it is a victory—even more so when that gives Harvin an added ordinal on the edge. With the linebackers attractive steps in the criminal direction, let’s go backwards to a wider effort of the field.

This is a effort of the earth presently after the ball is discover of Ponder’s hands. You’ll attending there is exclusive digit contestant nearby Harvin for roughly 10 yards. It’s one-on-one, and I provide Harvin the bounds in that status 95 proportionality of the time. He module garner up fivesome yards in situations same this. Only the selected crapper verify Harvin downbound without him gaining some yards at all.

And of course, Harvin gained 11 yards on this play, resulting in a Minnesota prototypal down. This is the identify of endeavor we’ll wager such more of as the flavour progresses because Harvin runs it rattling well, and it loosens up the accumulation exclusive for the streaming game.
