For most fans of the Minnesota Vikings, a discussion about kickers is enough to get their blood to boil. As the team has yet to enter training camp, there have already been multiple discussions about the team’s’ field goal unit ranging from asking for competition for incumbent kicker Dan Bailey and demanding competition for holder Matt Wile.
Even as the Vikings replaced maligned special teams coach Mike Preifer with Marwan Maloof, Vikings fans still have to be concerned with a unit that has not only sabotaged games over the past couple of years, but complete seasons with playoff failures.
