Vikings Moving On From Greg Manusky
The Minnesota Vikings have decided to move on from linebacker coach Greg Manusky on Saturday. It appears newcomer Brian Flores wants to put together his own defensive coaching staff. It's not uncommon to see a new defensive coordinator want to pick his own staff members around him. Manusky has over 20 years of experience coaching defenses. He shouldn't have any issues finding a new home elsewhere. He has been a defensive coordinator for three different organizations. There should be a strong ... [Read More]
Broncos Interested In Brian Flores, Sean Desai
The Denver Broncos have requested permission to speak with Pittsburgh Steelers assistant head coach/linebackers coach Brian Flores and Seattle Seahawks secondary coach Sean Desai for their vacant defensive coordinator position. With former defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero not returning in 2023, the Broncos need to fill the role. Desai has withdrawn from consideration for the Minnesota Vikings' defensive coordinator job after interviewing last week. Flores came up as a defensive coordinator in ... [Read More]
Vikings Defense Allows 36 Points In Week 15
The Minnesota Vikings' defense registered three sacks and one fumble recovery during Saturday's comeback win over the Indianapolis Colts.

It could be argued that Sullivan ... [Read More]
Vikings Defense Duds In Week 14 Loss
The Minnesota Vikings D/ST had a forgettable game in the Week 14 loss to the Lions, as they surrendered 330 yards through the air, 134 yards on the ground, as well as 34 points to Jared Goff and company. The Vikings have had one of the league's worst secondaries all season long, making them an unreliable option for fantasy managers moving forward. The matchup with the Colts in Week 15 is intriguing, but they will always come risky no matter their matchup based on what we have seen this season. [Read More]
Vikings Defense Allows 489 Total Yards In Win
The Minnesota Vikings D/ST once again struggled in Week 13 as they allowed 489 total yards to the Mike White-led Jets offense. Two interceptions and a sack helped the cause, but it was once again a disappointing game of fantasy production for this defensive unit. In Week 14, they will once again be an unreliable option as they take on a Lions' offense that has no trouble putting points on the board. Fantasy managers should likely look elsewhere for a starting option for their D/ST next week. [Read More]
