seeing that there is a lot of turnover this season in the nfc north, i am curious to hear the expectations of lion, viking and fudgie fans. in your honest opinions how long do you anticipate it's going to take to right the ship (no pun intended viking fans)?
do you think your team currently has the talent to match the new schemes being installed on both sides of the ball?
do you think your team has the attitude to match the new philosophy of the coaching staff (the lions really come to mind here)?
using the turnover from dick mauron to lovie, it took the bears a full season and off-season to get the pieces in place given the radical change in overall team attitude and on the field philosopy from the mauron years. however, i think lovie did a masterful job of coaching last season (carolina playoff game excluded) given the fact he had to start a rookie quarterback.
