Predicting the Vikings starting offense before training camp

This upcoming season will mark the second year for the Minnesota Vikings under head coach Kevin O’Connell. His debut season, however, was one for the books on the offensive side of the football.

He fielded an offense that was top ten in points scored, yards accumulated, passing yards accumulated, and passing touchdowns. The offense looked like a well-oiled machine more times than not when throwing the football. And with his new approach to running the football, O’Connell hopes to bring that success to the run game as well.

As the new season looms closer, the offense doesn’t have too many surprises when it comes to who will be starting in 2023. The key will be continuing to gel and build on the success of last season.

With that being said, here are the projected offensive starters for the 2023 Minnesota Vikings.
