I still don’t understand why Mond isn’t playing. Unless he’s been absolutely terrible in practice, which I don’t think he has, then what’s the harm?

Oh well… looking forward to seeing the other guys out there. Skol!

So many reasons. That week put him way behind. And you put him in before he's able to make timely reads, he could be awful. And probably would be. An embarrassment to him and the Vikings. Media starts calling him a bust. Presser is all about how bad he was. That has an impact. He gets in his head, starts developing bad habits. No, we don't want that. 

Agreed. He missed time its going to take a month to catch up from as a rookie QB. I'm fine with him not playing.

My head- you guys are absolutely right

My delusional fan heart- but what if we just put him in for a few plays and he lights it up though

Vikings just announced that 30 players won't be playing. So like all starters and near-starters are out. The good news? Udoh is not playing and Dozier is. :-)

They just said Mond is playing!

Glad they realized it’s better to get him reps than worry about how it could mentally affect him. Good job, Vikes

me to, and you can see hes missed a ton of practice by his play. But has had some good plays. Im happy he’s out there just to get a feel at the speed of the game at this level. he needs to get that experience which he can then take back to the film room and practice field. important to get him out there

Agreed. Especially when we’re sitting here down almost 30. It’d be absurd to play Nate Stanley who won’t make the team over him. Mond has looked alright!

Mond should not have played.

Meh it serves him right. Gotta learn from stupidity.

Title was a gross under estimation. Holy crap. I guess Zim wanted to use game one as his game four. 

My only take away was Colquitt needs some competition, or an insurance sales license. Bummed about Kene. Hopefully it's not serious.

And Browning should have played…
