Mike Zimmer said he wants the Vikings to "do something really well' on offense next year, and though he still wants a balance of snaps with Teddy Bridgewater under center and in the shotgun, he said the Vikings need to be better overall in the shotgun, where Adrian Peterson struggled to run effectively. The additions of former offensive coordinators Tony Sparano and Pat Shurmur to the offensive staff can aid the league's 31st-ranked offense in those areas, Zimmer said. "That's part of the reason I got Tony in here," he said. "Part of the reason why I got Pat to help, because Pat has had a lot of influence with quarterbacks in the gun and Tony has been a lot with the quarterback under center. And they've had mixtures of both. I don't think we can be in the gun all day. and I don't think we can be under the center all day."
