The Vikings Defense Can Get Back on Track by Attacking a First-Time Rookie Starter on the Colts' Offense

The Vikings' defense has struggled to start the season, but they have a chance to get back on track this week against the Colts.

The Colts are starting a rookie quarterback, Sam Ehlinger, for the first time in his career. Ehlinger is a talented player, but he is also inexperienced. The Vikings' defense should be able to take advantage of his inexperience and force him into mistakes.

The Vikings defense needs to generate pressure on Ehlinger.

One of the best ways to force a young quarterback into mistakes is to put pressure on him. The Vikings' defense should be able to generate pressure on Ehlinger with their talented front four. If the Vikings can get to Ehlinger early and often, they will be able to force him into bad decisions.

The Vikings defense also needs to be aware of Ehlinger's mobility.

Ehlinger is a mobile quarterback who can extend plays with his legs. The Vikings' defense needs to be aware of this and make sure they keep him contained. If Ehlinger is able to get outside of the pocket and make plays with his legs, it will be difficult for the Vikings to stop him.

The Vikings defense has the potential to be a very good unit.

They have a lot of talented players, and they have a good scheme. If they can play to their potential, they will be able to help the Vikings win a lot of games this season.

Here are some specific things that the Vikings' defense can do to attack Ehlinger:

• Blitz him early and often.
• Force him to make quick decisions.
• Keep him contained in the pocket.
• Don't let him get comfortable.

If the Vikings' defense can do these things, they will be able to force Ehlinger into mistakes and help the Vikings win the game.
