LOL, this is crazy good....but so unexpected.....
Only 7 OTs in the NFL have not given up a sack yet....the Vikings have 2 of them.
Hope we can knock Trent Williams' name from that list next week.
Id be just as happy if Trent was out and EG97 was eating up clemmings.
Think Teddy would love that kind of protection? Would be new territory for him as a Viking.
That's what you want - Bookends! I agree it's unexpected. Usually FAs don't perform like you'd want, but these two have changed the team.

I wouldn't bet on Trent being able to play in 2 weeks. But anyhow, both Reiff & Remmers have been really good so far. Keenum does deserve some credit though since his mobility and ability to step up in the pocket has saved him more than a few times.

That is one area where he is way ahead of Sam.

I was pretty sure Remmers gave up a sack in the first or second game-and I mean like blown by. Not to nitpick just saying.

but I think that was a play where Case called an audible and had the line shift left leaving the DE unblocked for the easy sack - Case's fault and Remmers blocked the interior DL as called so not credited with giving up a sack.
Reiff has to be top 5 offseason signings in the league...Maybe top 3.
Knocking wood he can stay healthy
