In the NFL, we can become so focused on what’s new — new players, new coaches, new coordinators, new philosophies — that we overlook what’s already in place. And we can forget that what’s in place can change. Players who start slow aren’t doomed to be busts. Sam Darnold won a Super Bowl after playing for five different teams in his first eight seasons. Coaches who start slow aren’t doomed to get fired and never get another job. Bill Belichick went 36-44 in five years with the Browns and had to...
Minnesota is 2-0 after a sloppy 9-3 win at Chicago, and on The Real Forno Show Tyler Forness and Dave Stefano argued that the real story is belief: a Flores defense that can close, a run game that is finally getting volume, and enough luck to survive a backup-QB weather game.

Minnesota is coming off a 9-3 in Chicago with a standout defensive performance and they will vie to con...
Last week, we talked about the Green Bay Packers’ use of Dash motion and how they used the Vikings defensive tendencies to hit a play behind it. Today, we’re looking at that same motion and a play the Packers hit off of it in Week 2 against the New York Jets. Before we get started, […]
The Chicago Bears fired from all cylinders in their season opener against the Carolina Panthers. The visitors defeated the home team 59-37, showing off their high-octane offense to the NFL world. However, they lost 9-3 last Sunday to the Minnesota Vikings, and an unwanted development involving them emerged. Chicago struggled to score all-game long. Its [...]
