I'd just play Keenum if there is this much concern this late in the week. Let him rest and get healthy.

I am sure that they will do whatever is best. This whole situation makes me sick though. I hate all the speculation and not knowing. I also hate that it is happening so early in the season. Hoping for the best.

Why would that be? Why would any viking fan be pleased with this news?

Because Teddy fan boys are fans of Teddy first and the team a distant second with Sam far down the list...

While I have seen posters mount a vigorous defense of Bridgewater, I can't say any of them are fans of Teddy first and team second. It is possible to be a Viking fan and like both Bridgewater and Bradford, really it is!

this pretty much sums it up for me too...Hoping the best for Sam - guy deserves a chance to succeed. The Vikings have given him by far the best chance he's had since being drafted.

I am! I am a fan of any Minnesota Viking. I have favorites, but I do like both Teddy and Sam.
They have very different games and honestly I think Sam would have fit better into a Norv Turner offense than Teddy, just because of his accuracy.
However, I think the current offense fits both QB's. I am excited about the QB position and the future.

I was just listening to the BTN and they congratulated Matthew Stafford on his contract and then commented about how some Lions fans were upset over the amount. Then they asked the question, "Have you seen what else is out there? Including the incoming classes."

I hope Teddy gets well, I hope Sam plays his ass off and gets a. ontract extension. It only helps the Vikings!

the way you are taking this shit makes me wonder if you are the exact opposite, your digs at those that have spoken up for Teddy (even though Sams position is/was pretty solid) gives the impression that you kind of have a little man crush going for yourself.

“It means a lot to me that (general manager Rick) Spielman, Coach Zimmer and the staff believe in me enough to bring me up from the practice squad,” Sloter wrote in the text. “I’m still new to the offense, but I’m getting the hang of things.
“And right right now I’m just here to provide support to the quarterback position and do whatever is asked of me. I’ve really come to love Minnesota and am hoping to here for a long time.’’
The Vikings initially signed Sloter to a practice-squad deal worth $20,000 per week, nearly three times the NFL minimum of $7,200. He now will make $27,353 per week based on his NFL minimum salary for this season of $465,000.
Sloter is on the books for $555,000 in 2018 and $645,000 in 2019. His salary is nonguaranteed, and he did not get a signing bonus.

Not at all...not even close...especially when you consider I've never had to resort to the tactics of fan boys...lies, distortion, and pure fabrication...
