| MINNESOTA: Offensive coordinator Norv Turner planned on building this offense around the power running game and Adrian Peterson in Year 1. Those plans obviously fell through after Peterson's nearly season-long suspension. Now he'll use him heavily in a scheme that skews toward a lot of gap blocking and banging between the tackles. Turner's offense takes downfield shots off play-action. Charles Johnson emerged as Teddy Bridgewater's favorite target in the second half of last season, working deep on the perimeter. Mike Wallace gives them another field stretcher on the other side of the field, which would open things up for Kyle Rudolph. Although the Vikings were one of only eight teams with fewer than 20 takeaways in 2014, the team did show an ability to get to the quarterback, finishing tied for ninth in the NFL with 41 sacks. The Vikes have promising young talent in OLB Anthony Barr, CB Xavier Rhodes and rookie CB Trae Waynes. | | DALLAS: Fueled by arguably the best offensive line in football, the Cowboys rode the ground game to a division title last year. DeMarco Murray is gone, but it might not matter who's carrying the workload behind this front five. Offensive coordinator Scott Linehan worked wonders with the Dallas passing game. He reined in quarterback Tony Romo by introducing an offense with more pre-snap reads and quick drops, mitigating Romo's tendency to freelance. Dez Bryant is the clear No. 1, and Linehan effectively moves him around the formation to create one-on-one opportunities. Tight end Jason Witten remains the No. 2 target, working intermediate routes. Terrance Williams is the deep threat, and the Cowboys are using more three-receiver sets to get slippery slot receiver Cole Beasley involved. The Cowboys' best move this offseason may have been retaining defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli with a three-year contract: Dallas went from last into the NFL in defense in 2013 to 15th in points allowed last year. The Cowboys also finished second in the league with 31 takeaways.
