Almost just had another pick. Vikings may have found something with the UDFA Safety. https://t.co/Y5jIn4J4go

Jacob Thomas is coming real close to an INT here. Might've had one on the Bo Richter PD. Almost had a one-hander there. He's been everywhere.

Observation #15 - Ravens at Vikings: BALT drive for the TD - drive extended by a helmet-to-helmet penalty. Still some defenders who flashed - Bo Richter (he will get a role here), Chaz Chambliss looks active and will stick you. Jacob Roberts is a diamond in the rough. pic.twitter.com/p1zBknomRB

On 4th and 3, Max Brosmer throws...about 3 feet over his target's head. Preseason football! pic.twitter.com/Klsv4L3F33

Well me and my longtime Vikings travel companion decided the Miami game this yr. I always want an early season home game that seems winnable. Did I choose the right game?
Well I'll be there if that sweetens the deal for you. 😜 But yes, Vikings should be heavy favorites in that one.

I turned on the game in the 3rd, saw a 3-3 tie and Brosmer on the field, said, "game over, Vikings lose", and turned the channel to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom 😏
Observation #16 - Ravens at Vikings: The numbers at RB are tough, with Jones, Mason and Claiborne as locks, but Xavier Scott is a good back. He has speed, can make people miss and as a college WR, he is a good receiver out of the backfield pic.twitter.com/hCapsKegWL

Observation #17- Ravens at Vikings: Human interest- You'd expect Kyler Murray to be hanging out with his WRs or other QBs, but today on the sidelines, I saw him twice in conversation with Punter Johnny Hekker. Murray is the 10th oldest on the roster, so maybe some AARP talk! pic.twitter.com/5lqTFfBoMz

We're continuing to see the NFL rotate its referees during the preseason. This is the Alex Kemp crew at U.S. Bank Stadium, but alternate Scott Helverson is wearing the white hat as the referee in the second half.

Observation #18 - Ravens at Vikings: Myles Price and Tai Felton have alleviated fears of the WRs beyond the Vikings top 3. Both did little on the offense last year & both look veery active, reliable and able to get open. Vikes are 5 deep at the position & some for practice sqd. pic.twitter.com/ezv6YWSmUo

Observation #19 - Ravens at Vikings: KOC clearly was evaluating QBs today, so the run/pass balance is 65% pass. In general, the run game showed little with the 2nd team OLine (few holes). We have to hope the team is closer to 55/45 or 60/40 pass/run during the season.
