3.  What do Lions fans think of the Minnesota Vikings?  Do they believe that the team is building a contender or do they see another team that is just spinning their wheels?

I can’t speak for anyone else, but I view the Vikings as a team that is building for future success– the right way. I respect the hiring on Mike Zimmer, they have a talented young quarterback, who should have been a top five pick, and the defense is already markedly better. It’s only a matter of time before the Vikings are competing for the NFC North.

Next: Is there still fear the Lions will collapse before the playoffs?
