    I know it's early and I didn't see the bears game, but by the statistics of there QB/RB game, the O-line is looking 3rd rate as usual.

    Broncos depth on the D continues to grow. Looks like the loss of backup safety Bruton was properly addressed in the draft. QB battle between Sanchez and Siemian is very tight, though after watching the 1st half again this morning Simian did a better job looking to one side then throwing opposite way on target. Next year Elway needs to draft heavy on OL or find some bargain veterans at final cutdown, they are thin.

    Oh, I so hope you're right, John! Teddy aired it out on that TD to Johnson - 51 yards in the air, aaaannnnnnddd he even put it UP and let the receiver adjust and run under it, like he's supposed to. :)




    Two bombs for TDs tonight.

    You must have been confused by the replay - :p - actually, the other Vikes' TD was a 10-yard run by C.J. Ham, the pride of Duluth, MN!



    I was kind of impressed by Stave, the Vikings' 3rd string QB. Also, and (far) better yet, Treadwell had a terrific 1st game as an NFL receiver.

    Was hoping MOBO (Moritz Boehringer) would make a flash tonight. I know, he's a long shot to make the team, but it's a cool story...hope he does.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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!

    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.
