In the special team ranked 10th the Vikings

The Dallas morning news columnist Rick Gosselin, he published his annual ranking league 32 units of special team on Friday, the Vikings 10 in the league. That put Minnesota's special teams group at the top of the NFC North. Detroit to complete 15, Chicago is 26 and green bay, seven played this year and made some important special teams wrong collapse NFC championship on Sunday, finally died.

Vikings finished 17 Gosselin's ranking in the past year, although they didn't get the same dynamic performance of the games they have from 2013 Cordarrelle Patterson, special team coordinator Mike Priefer unit did many other good things. Vikings became the first team return to two shielding gondola in 39 years, half of the detector in the same card on November 30, Andrew and safety Sendejo 48 yards in a fake betting on November 16 to Chicago. The vikings are sixth in the league every barge return code, reflecting from marcus Sherels a year. Touch the ball and play Blair Walsh 6 percentage points kick-off.

There is reason to worry; Walsh struggle before the end of this year, only 74.3% of his goals this season. Boatman Jeff Locke net average and is difficult to pin a pole 22 in its territory. Only 7.9% of his pen in 10 - yard line, according to ESPN's data and information, Locke wound six ball touches the ground.

But coach Mike Zimmer Priefer more radical freedom in a special team this season, and the Vikings made some key play to the special team. They have former professional player in football, kick returner, if they can get Walsh and Patterson backup speed in 2015, they will be in a special team very well.
