Re: 2016 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
A lot of people ive heard today blame Hill for the lact of scoring, first downs, etc. Hill did fine. The play calling and run game were the problems.
I can see wanting Bradford out there next week, I know I do. But Hill did a good job and Im fine if he's the QB vrs the Packers.

Hill did have Diggs open for a TD and he overthrew him so he contributed too but overall, I wouldn't say he was the problem. The offense as a whole just found ways to end drives without TDs.
I just want them to score.I can see wanting Bradford out there next week, I know I do. But Hill did a good job and Im fine if he's the QB vrs the Packers.

When asked if he heard the pop while stretching in his room or on the field, apparently Xavier couldn't remember.dead_poet wrote: Knee. Supposedly heard a pop while stretching

Hope They don't get in trouble for this obvious lie.

I do not like the vagueness of the Rhodes injury. These things have a nasty habit of being season ending when they are treated this way.

Zimmer, in a very talkative mood, discussing this week's game:

That's sarcasm, by the way. His responses are pretty clipped.

He didn't seem too interested in being there, did he? Especially at first. Loosened up a bit later.Mothman wrote:Zimmer, in a very talkative mood, discussing this week's game:

That PC definitely had an "I just want to get outta here" quality to it.Dames wrote: He didn't seem too interested in being there, did he? Especially at first. Loosened up a bit later.

I don't like the sound of that.Matt Kalil left the facility with athletic trainer Eric Sugarman before practice. Rhodes, Floyd, Pruitt also not practicing.

Maybe they just went out for a sandwich?

It doesn't sound good.

Hip for Kalil. Dealt with it in the preseason. Makes sense; it's like the one lower body part that hasn't caused him problems previously

Notice one name absent. Sigh...Bradford, Diggs, Thielen, C. Johnson, Treadwell, Rudolph and Böhringer staying after practice to get more reps. #Vikings

Without knowing why they're absent, I don't think it makes sense to read it as a negative. Maybe they're doing something else important.
