Obviously, this is not the start the Minnesota Grey Ducks had in mind when they plotted their title defense. However, there are still enough games to finish out at 7-7. When Minnesota wins, they win big and they win on the back of Baby Yoda at halfback. But don’t count out veteran QB Vega who can sling it. He’s got a variety of WR targets to get the ball out to. And most if not all of them are a threat to rip off some massive YAC. Again, they can throw it to Baby Yoda on the screen.

Defensively, they just need to limit big plays. In many of their losses, the game was close and only got away from them with late-game big plays. They get to the QB well, but they need to keep an eye on the speed from outside. All it takes is a good roll of momentum and I can honestly say Minnesota has a chance to defend their title.

Key player: Baby Yoda
Dark Horse: Jamar Lackson

How they can do it: run the ball and limit big plays defensively

Biggest threat to their chances: being able to adjust when the running game gets taken away.

Predictions for remaining regular season games.

NORFOLK: LOSS
PORTLAND: WIN
LONDON: WIN
KANSAS CITY: LOSS

This brings me to my next point. A big issue for Minnesota this season has been an inability to get a winning streak going. This team needs to get hot now and go 3-2/3-1 to feel really good going into the playoffs.

Can it be done? Absolutely.
Will it be easy? Is anything ever easy?
