I think the butterflies w/ Drew should be gone so we'll have to focus highly on establishing our running game. I strongly believe that is pivotal to achieve success this season.
We fact the 30th, 25th, and 23rd rushing Ds from last year for the remainder of our 3 PS games, so if we cannot run against them, even in preseason, then it could raise serious issues for this season.
GW needs to leave Henry in until it works. Whichever OL he uses doesn't matter. Minnesota is not good enough that we should have any trouble at all rushing against them this week.
We also need to do a respectable job of containing Bennett and the Vike rushing game as well. They are far worse than what we will face throughout most of the season, so again, if we cannot stop him, then it could spell trouble for us this year.
At some point we need to have a certain amount of things in place for what figures to be a very winable game on the home-opener vs. the Jets.
IMO those are the two most important things for the Vike game and for us to achieve success this season. A rush D in the top 18 and our own "finding our rushing game."
