Especially considering the damage that could’ve been done to Bradford’s confidence had they thrown him to the wolves this Sunday (a la Josh Freeman in 2013) it appears that they took the better safe than sorry route.

“He can’t wait to get back here and be around the guys”, Zimmer said. I’d personally be surprised if it wasn’t Bradford.
“I’ll guess we’ll find out Sunday”, Zimmer said, via the Vikings’ team website.
Coach Mike Zimmer said he didn’t know the specifics. If Diggs continues to develop and Johnson can get himself back to his 2014 form, a top three of Diggs, Johnson, and Treadwell has a lot of promise. Then we might have a controversy. Adrian Peterson rushed 10 times for all of 31 yards. It hasn’t happened yet. Considering he’s a free agent next year, I don’t believe he will be back on the team in 2017.
With Hill starting, the best thing to lean on is the running game.
The two have split reps with the first-team offense in practice this week. How has he looked so far? “I think the verbiage part of it, because he’s an experienced veteran, and learning the system and learning the plays is the easier part than getting in sync with the guys on the field on a play-to-play basis”. Jarius Wright will also make his share of plays in this offense. Adam Thielen has earned his way from the practice squad to special teams ace to legitimate threat at wideout. In exchange the Titans received 4 picks in the first 3 round of this year’s draft and a couple of L.A.’s selections in next year’s draft.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Adrian Peterson can hardly sleep, so eager for the Minnesota Vikings to finally open the season after their playoff loss last January. I wish I could tell you. Everything we’ve said, we’ve done, and that’s what they want, someone who is going to be up-front and honest with them. Really thought you’d be the starter when Chip Kelly became your head coach. He has basically been relegated to a kick return specialist. The Vikings have tried to get him going in the preseason games with a few quick screens and end arounds to little success.
AFC director of pro scouting: “I think they gave up too much”. “I talked to him yesterday and texted him last night, so he’s in good spirits”. He could run for governor of Minnesota tomorrow and win in a landslide. If you created a football coach for a movie from Central Casting, you’d come up with someone like Zimmer. We are glad as players to have him leading us. But whether Bridgewater attends team meeting is up to him, according to Zimmer.
The better the Vikings are, of course, the worse the first-round pick for the Eagles next year. We’ve got video of them with the designed out-of-the-pocket [plays], but that’s not what they’re there for. We love the guy. His coverage skills have improved greatly over his first two National Football League seasons, he’s already outstanding against the run, and he’s a force when it comes to rushing the passer. So I think it’s been a lot of that. I love this question!

The Vikings should be able to come out with a victory as the Titans just aren’t talented enough to make big plays on defense and Peterson knows how to close out games. (I’ll say 22-17 Vikings)A huge thanks to Eric for doing this. See you in Cleveland for Week 5.
