Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Linehan has been with the Vikings the last three seasons, guiding one of the NFL’s most potent offenses. The Vikings offensive unit ranked No.1 overall in the NFL in 2003, finishing fourth in both passing and rushing yards. They followed that up with a No. 4 overall ranking this past season, concluding as the No. 2 passing team in the league. Under Linehan’s supervision, Daunte Culpepper put together one of the greatest passing seasons of all time, posting the fourth-highest passer rating and fifth-most touchdowns in NFL single-season history.
