    All set for the Browns 3rd preseason game. Josh Gordon back on the field and Pryor ought to keep the offensive play entertaining. Looking to see some improvement from the defense tonight.

    Well, there's always next YEAR

    Fixed...

    The Browns have managed to hog up some early extra draft pics in the next couple of drafts through trades....now how they use them is another story.

    Unhappy...Romo hit the $hiiters again...but not surprised

    Damn shame as I was looking for him to come back and have a great year. He has had a streak of bad luck with injuries.

    Honestly if I were in his shoes, I'd hang it up before he puts himself in anymore agony.
    My mother has had 4 back surgeries from 1 slip and fall and walking around in high heals a as business professional most her life, she he absolutely miserable. Can't imagine what Romo will be like in 20yrs. I know it's the name of the game and they are well paid but when it's time...it's time

    I'm more of a college FB fan living in Louisville, KY and I can say with confidence that Minnesota got a heck of a guy in Teddy Bridgewater and a pretty good QB as well.

    The day Peyton retired I began telling people that Siemian was going to get the starting QB job. The kid reads quicker, is more decisive, stronger arm, and far better footwork than Osweiller. Will he be a quality QB and hold off Lynch? Who knows, but I'm excited to see him develop!

    ....enter Mr Kaepernick.

    Absolutely NOT!

    Shaun Hill will hold Teddy's spot 'til we can get Stave (3rd stringer) ready...6-8 games.

    Thankfully, the Vikings identity is their defense. They'll be fine.

    Heinecke, & Stave both could be good, I think Stave will be the likely candidate after spending time with the first string practicing and watching Shaun Hill run the offense for a few weeks. Face it fellow Vikings fans were cursed.

    As another Viking Fan it hits you hard but mostly because of how we feel about Teddy and you can't help but care about the guy.

    It is too bad about Teddy. I think the NFL should go to 2 pre season games. Players stay in shape year round now.

    The news for Teddy is not good... According to a couple reports, he could have bled to death were it not for the efforts of the Vikings training staff providing the exact type of treatment they did on-site before paramedics arrived. I have never heard to anything even remotely close to this happening to another player under these circumstances.

    My prayers to him and his family for a full and complete recovery...

    Sam Bradford is going to the Vikings! There chances have improved dramatically from QBs they had on the roster.

    Looks like Sanchez is going to Dallas. That will be interesting.
