Every NFC North offense ranked from worst to best in 2023

1. Minnesota Vikings

It was a tough call between the Vikings and Lions for first place, but Minnesota just edges it.

Kirk Cousins is the best quarterback in the division with Aaron Rodgers gone, and the Vikings have an underrated offensive line with an excellent tackle combination of Christian Darrisaw and Brian O'Neill.

Minnesota also has the best receiving corps in the division.

All-Pro Justin Jefferson is one of the top-three wide receivers in football. He averaged 106.4 yards per game last season. The Vikings also have the best tight end in the division, T.J. Hockenson, and drafted wide receiver Jordan Addison in the first round.

The biggest concern for the Vikings is their ground game after releasing Dalvin Cook. Is Alexander Mattison ready to lead the backfield?

Cousins consistently posts good numbers, but can he put together a crucial game-winning drive with the season on the line?

The Vikings have the best offense in the division, but there are concerns. Can they run the ball as effectively without Cook? Can Minnesota turn great offense in the regular season into winning football in the playoffs?

They will face competition for the top spot, but entering the 2023 season, the Vikings have the best offense in the NFC North.
