Vikings are 5-0 with Bradford. Does bridgewater get put back in when healthy!? What about Adrian Peterson? Will he be the same after his latest injury and getting close to the "wrong side of 30?"

The team appears to be clicking with Bradford and McKinnon

You mean for next year?

AP will be given a shot to reclaim his starting role.

It'll be interesting to see. His cap hit jumps to 13 million, but only 4m is GTD.

Teddy also enters his last year of his rookie contract.

My bet is they monitor Teddy's recovery and bring both to camp next year. 13 million ain't bad for a starting QB that is playing well.

They're in a good position, too. Let 'em play in training camp, and the winner gets an extension.

Bradford is making a very strong case. Bridgewater is solid but he was starting to look like a Alex Smith clone.

I could see them trading Bridgewater to try and recoupe some of thw picks they gave up.

At HB, I don't think McKinnion is the awnser

No way. He's due 18 mil and will be like 32. He's done in Minnesota.


Next year was for the QB debate.

AP I was referring to for this year, but I forgot his injury took 3-4 months to recover from. So, nevermind on that lol.

Depends on who's better.

The problem with Romo is that it's very uncertain he can play as well as Dak is playing right now when Romo comes back from injury. He hasn't played much football in the past year and he's getting older and has added new injuries to the fold.

To me, where Dak and Romo excel is in the intermediate throws, but Romo is more efficient in the long throws and Dak is more efficient in the short throws. Dak's gone 5 games without a pick and has 1 fumble. Something Romo has never come remotely close to doing. And Dak really helps the running game.

With Peterson, there's a good chance he can come back healthy and outplay McKinnon. Bridgewater? I'm not so sure as I've never been overly impressed with him and I always thought Bradford had potential.

But with Dak, the O-Line and EE, it's making life very difficult for defenses and just to think, EE is still learning how to run in a zone scheme.
