I don't think its impractical, he's not a very creative OC and creativity is what the Vikes need right now. When you don't have a ton of talent on offense, you need to find creative ways to use what you have and he can't seem to do that. Also, don't get so down on Jenkins, the guy can make some plays, he has decent hands. Personally I think they need to be running more 4 wide sets and if it were me I'd line up Carlson and Rudolph in the 3 and 4 slots in a 4 wide set with Harvin and Jenkins/Wright in the 1 and 2. I don't mean a 2 TE, 2WR set, I mean a 4 wide set with Carlson and Rudolph in the slots. That would give you a good mix of speed and size and you'd still have 2 TE's on the field to block for AP. That would be my money formation. You could do everything you want out of the set because Carlson and Rudolph have the speed and hands to run long routes while still having the size and strength to block on runs.
