Footballguys View: It was a good run for the Vikings this season. They failed to make the palyoffs last year but made it to the Divisional Round this year. Next season, in the final season of Kirk Cousins contract, the Vikings are hoping to make the NFC Championship at least. We’ll see if they can make that happen. This offseason, the secondary is a part of the team they’ll need to improve to make that run.
