T-Jax is a mobile QB with a strong arm. He has less than 20 NFL starts and has gotten better (Williamson killed him last year with a ton of drops that would have been long TD's in multiple games). His decision making is still questionable at times but he has shown glimpses of making plays. This should get better with more game time.
All he needs to do is keep the defense honest by hitting Berrian or Rice with some passes while they have one on one coverage since there will be 9 in the box to stop Peterson. If he doesn't make the big mistake (turnovers) and manages the game that will be sufficient to win with this team. He should be called on to make a couple plays a game and that's about it. With one on one coverage on the outside it should limit his mistakes if the WR's can make some plays (and they will).
With the Vikes running game once they get a lead they will be tough to beat (especially with the new found pass rush in Allen putting the pressure on). I am not saying Super Bowl Bound (maybe hoping ha ha) but they will be tough to beat and be in every game.......they seem alot like the Giants of last year to me with a better running game. Unproven QB (Eli wasn't proven at the time), great front 7, good LB's.........
