    What do the Vikings need to prove against Miami

    It’s time for the Vikings offense to SHOW US where they're going. 👀🏈 KFAN’s Ben Leber and Cy Amundson preview the Minnesota Vikings vs. Miami Dolphins and break down what Minnesota needs to prove in a game it absolutely cannot take lightly. It starts with Kyler Murray and the Vikings offense. Ben doesn’t need to see anything spectacular — he wants to see Kyler look calm, comfortable and in control. Can Kevin O’Connell get his quarterback into a rhythm with simple throws, build his confidence and finally show that this offense is heading in the right direction? Then there’s Brian Flores facing his former organization. What does this matchup mean for the Vikings defensive coordinator, and how will Flores attack Miami’s offense? Even without one of the Dolphins’ biggest weapons, does everything still start with stopping the run? Ben breaks down why Minnesota can’t allow Miami to dictate the game on the ground and create opportunities for explosive plays. 0:00 - 6:11 That do we need to see from offense 6:12 - 8:45 Jordan Addison 8:46 -14:47 Brian Flores vs Miami What do YOU need to see from the Vikings against Miami? #MinnesotaVikings #Vikings #MiamiDolphins #VikingsDolphins #KylerMurray #BrianFlores #KevinOConnell #BenLeber #VikingsOffense #VikingsDefense #VikingsNews #Dolphins #SKOL #NFL #NFLWeek4 #NFLNews #ESPN #NFLLive #ProFootballTalk #FirstThingsFirst #FirstTake

    Postgame Reaction: Vikings Win Ugly In Tampa Bay

    It was not pretty - but the Vikings found another way to win. 😤🏈 KFAN’s Ben Leber and Cy Amundson react to the Minnesota Vikings’ win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after another game dominated by Brian Flores’ defense and Minnesota’s special teams. The Vikings offense struggled to get anything going, and Kyler Murray could never find a rhythm. So how concerned should Minnesota be about an offense that still hasn’t found its footing? Thankfully, the defense was SPECTACULAR. Brian Flores’ unit took over the game, consistently creating problems for Baker Mayfield and giving the Vikings a chance to win despite the offensive struggles. And once again, special teams made a massive difference. Myles Turner and Will Reichard delivered huge performances as Minnesota continues to find ways to win games outside of its offense. 0:00 - 4:58 offensive struggles 4:59 - 9:58 defense is dominant again 9:59 - 17:44 special teams was great What was YOUR biggest takeaway from Vikings-Buccaneers? #MinnesotaVikings #Vikings #VikingsBucs #TampaBayBuccaneers #KylerMurray #BrianFlores #BakerMayfield #WillReichard #MylesTurner #VikingsDefense #VikingsSpecialTeams #KevinOConnell #BenLeber #VikingsNews #SKOL #NFL #NFLWeek3 #NFLNews #ESPN #NFLLive #ProFootballTalk #FirstThingsFirst #FirstTake

    The Vikings Offense May Be Different Than You Think Against The Bucs

    Is Baker Mayfield’s HERO BALL exactly what Brian Flores wants? 👀🏈 KFAN’s Ben Leber and Cy Amundson preview Minnesota Vikings vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers and break down the matchups that could decide the game. On offense, where can Kevin O’Connell attack the Buccaneers defense? Ben looks at the opportunities for Minnesota’s tight ends against Tampa Bay’s linebackers, how the Vikings can establish the run despite injuries, and whether this might finally be the week KOC unleashes more big chunk plays down the field. Then comes the chess match between Brian Flores and Baker Mayfield. Baker’s ability to escape pressure, extend plays and play hero ball can make him dangerous — but is that exactly what Flores wants him to try? Can Minnesota bait Baker into believing he can make something happen, force him to keep playing outside structure and eventually make him pay for it? And who is actually under MORE PRESSURE? The 0-2 Buccaneers, fighting to keep their season from spiraling with pressure mounting on their coaching staff? Or a 2-0 Vikings team that suddenly has real expectations and an opportunity to prove just how good it can be? Ben breaks down Vikings-Bucs and the matchups, strategy and pressure that could determine everything. What is YOUR biggest key to Vikings-Buccaneers?
