Film Room: Vikings Play-Action

Play-action passing rules the NFL right now. Teams of all different kinds of makeup and quality of play have found great success throwing off of play-action. While that success has spread all around the league, a handful of teams have come to set the expectation for what a play-action passing offense is supposed to look like. The Minnesota Vikings, coordinated by Kevin Stefanski and guided by offensive advisor Gary Kubiak, are one of the few elite play-action teams.

Minnesota's particular brand of play-action offense is driven by heavier personnel sets from under center that feed off of a strong zone running game.
