Minnesota Vikings coach: 'We need to get up to speed in a heck of a hurry'

Their first-game performance suggested they needed more practice.

After a sluggish 14-9 defeat at the hands of the New Orleans Saints, the Vikings returned home with a mix of frustration and confidence. Their biggest concern has to be the offense, which was able to move the ball remarkably well in the second quarter to take a halftime lead but stalled after that once they strayed from the run.

It's from a number of different spots, just getting your center back, your wideouts or your quarterback. We need to get up to speed in a heck of a hurry. I believe we will."
