vike daddy Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 3 minutes ago, ahoda said: What are the odds Bradford is back? the Vikings just say it's a "day to day" decision, that's all we know. that, and he got a second opinion of whether his injury is just a bone bruise from Dr Andrews who repaired his ACL twice, and Andrews confirmed there was no structural damage needing surgery. we're all just guessing, to answer your question, but i think it will be Keenum again. this week and probably next week also. then Bradford back vs the Bears, but who knows...?

vike daddy Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 In an absolute dismantling, Bucs’ CBs Vernon Hargreaves & Ryan Smith each had a rough day in Minnesota. Hargreaves was targeted a team-high 10 times, allowing 7 receptions for a whopping 126 yards and 1 TD. Smith was targeted 8 times, allowing 5 receptions for 118 yards and 1 TD. Vikings QB Case Keenum saw a 145.8 passer rating when targeting EACH defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I agree that it's likely that Keenum will be starting again, but if Bradford practices on Wednesday, then we may want to reassess that opinion. FWIW, Keenum has had some moderate success against your squad, having faced you twice while with the Rams...combined 41-54, 445 yds, 3 TDs, 2 Ints...and both games were within 1 score (as seems to be usual for you guys).

vike daddy Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 The Vikings' Keenum has played just two games, but only Tom Brady has a higher Total QBR thus far in 2017. Not bad for Sam Bradford's backup. On Sunday, the Bucs dialed up a blitz on 14 of Keenum's dropbacks — only two QBs faced a blitz more times in Week 3 — and he made them pay. His most valuable play of the day — a 17-yard touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs in the final minute of the first half — was one of three scores Keenum produced versus five or more pass-rushers. http://www.vikings.com/news/article-1/Lunchbreak-Case-Keenum-Ranked-as-ESPNs-Top-QB-in-Week-3/f04efb46-12a1-4aae-ae91-9ca0c4a4800e?sf116835981=1 do the Lions like to blitz?

Depends. We didnt much last week. Probably because of our horrid LB play. We really need Davis back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Word is he is on pace to return after the bye. Let's hope so. Also wouldn't hurt to get some LBs back healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lions017 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I don't think that losing Cook kills the Vikings. It's a hit, but Murray/McKinnon is a capable pair of RB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
