Which QB should start against Green Bay?

I'm tired of the expert hindsight. Lets talk about next week.

Who's starting at QB? Who is taking reps each day up to gameday, and who gets the nod?

Bradford if he practices all week? Bradford on limited reps taking care of the knee? Keenum, if Bradford is limited? ... ignore Bradford while he recovers some more and roll with Keenum?

A lot of experts on how it should have been handled last week; crickets on how it should be handled this week...

Sam Bradford - QB - VikingsSam Bradford (knee) remained sidelined at Thursday's practice.

Bradford never looked comfortable playing on his injured knee Monday against the Bears and is unlikely to suit up for Week 6. Expect Case Keenum to make another start Sunday versus Green Bay.

If the Vikings have any thoughts of starting Sam Bradford on Sunday against Green Bay, Super Bowl-winning quarterback Joe Theismann said that would be “foolish.’’
“You can’t put Sam out there (Sunday), not after what we saw,’’ said Theismann, who led Washington to a win in Super Bowl XVII in January 1983. “It would be foolish. He’s not ready. Sam can’t play right now. Sam can’t avoid pressure, and he can’t maneuver around well enough to throw the football with the velocity that he needs to.’’

I dont post a lot of new threads, but I think this one might have been one of the best ones I can recall.

Really enjoyed reading the thoughts and takes in here, thanks for taking the time.

Keenum has been named the starter. Let's GO!!!!

For the Packers - I would go with Rodgers
For the Vikings - whichever QB is healthy 

Two years in a row we are playing the f'in Packers without our starting QB and RB and now we are also without our best WR.  Don't like our chances at all.  Packers have injuries as well but not to Rodgers, best RB and best WR.  3-3 after this game.
