Vikings will never go full rebuild...
because the illusion of competitiveness brings fans to the Bank. It keeps merch selling. You gotta win at least 7-8 games to keep fans thinking they have a chance. You can't have a 4-13 or worse stinker season. That means fewer fans showing up to the stadium and fewer fans renewing their season tickets for the following season. It works even better if you can somehow get to 13-4 without being all that good. It's called a "competitive rebuild". The Vikings even came up with their own name for what they do, year-in, year-out.
