>>>ALL THINGS VIKINGS<<<

Just for the record... The Vikings defense sacked Brock Purdy, 6 times.

 

After the 49ers came to town, there is no let-up... this is going to be fun.

 

It's pedal to metal time for the Vikings an̈d.play SMART,cause you know Stefon Diggs will be fired up and Danielle Hunter the Texans will be on a search and destroy mission....GO VIKINGS

 

After Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson participated in the team’s walkthrough on Wednesday, head coach Kevin O’Connell said he wasn’t sure what level of participation Jefferson would have in the team’s practice later in the day.

Jefferson wound up being a limited participant as he works through the quad injury he suffered in last Sunday’s win over the 49ers. Jefferson said after the game that he did not expect the injury to keep him out of action and Wednesday’s practice is a good sign for his availability against the Texans.

Linebacker Ivan Pace (quad), linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel (foot), center Garrett Bradbury (knee), and running back Aaron Jones (hip) were all limited in practice.

Wide receiver Jordan Addison (ankle), right tackle Brian O’Neill (elbow), and linebacker Dallas Turner (knee) did not practice.

Pretty sure I was limited today to.

 

Don't rush back Dallas Turner just how bad Jordan Addison ankle, is it going to be an issue all season long?the Vikings need you on the field JJ needs some help out there,this Will be test for Garrett Bradbury can he stand up to the pressure that he will get from the Texans

 

I'm not sure if Joe Mixon plays or will it be former Vikings Cam Akers whoever GO VIKINGS

 

Mixon didnt practice today, but he is off to a great start. Im just guessing they are not pushing him and he will go.

This is going to be a fun game. Even tho the Vikings started 2-0, the 'experts' think there just lucky... we will see.

I dont need no respect from nobody and neither do the Vikings, the proof is in the pudding and the cream rises to the top.

Let the music do the talking.

 

As far I'm concerned there opinions mean nothing it just the same old song disrespecting the Vikings ho hum

 

Dallas Turner, Jordan Addison are 'out' Sunday... Jefferson is playing.

 

Not that worried about Dallas Turner I believe he will be just fine the player I'm little concerned about is Jordan Addison and his ankle is there a timetable when he Will ɓe back or Will this ɓe a week to week thing about his ankle ?

 

They are still claiming its not real serious. Todays 'out' for Addison is basically precautionary. Nailor will be WR2.

 

If he can healthy Nailor can be very good him and Sam Darnold seem to be hooking up,this is the NFL next man up so Jordan Addison can this guy just afford to stay on the sidelines

 

Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold returned to Sunday’s rout of the Texans after getting his knee checked out in the second half and he said it feels good when he spoke to reporters at a postgame press conference, but he’ll still have doctors take another look at it.

Darnold said he’ll have the knee evaluated on Monday as a precaution against anything that might not have been identified during the in-game trip to the medical tent. Darnold was 17-of-28 for 181 yards and four touchdowns in the 34-7 win.

Wide receiver Justin Jefferson also offered an update on his condition after the game. Cameras showed Jefferson flexing his right hand on the sideline and he said, via Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com, that he jammed his finger. Jefferson remained in the game and said postgame X-rays were negative.

Jefferson caught one of Darnold’s touchdown passes and the Vikings will be happy to have both players healthy for their shot at a 4-0 start in Green Bay next week.

 

Sam Darnold on knee: “It’s good, and that’s as much as I’m gonna say about that”

Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold seemed to suffer a potentially serious knee injury on Sunday, after a low hit from former Vikings (now Texans) defensive end Danielle Hunter. Darnold missed only one play before returning.

Still, there’s concern about Darnold’s status.

Speaking to PFT by phone after Sunday’s 34-7 win, Darnold said this when asked about his knee: “It’s good, and that’s as much as I’m gonna say about that.”

He then said more.

Darnold confirmed that he’ll have an MRI tomorrow, and that they’ll take it from there.

Regardless of the results, he had a huge day for the Vikings, throwing four touchdown passes as the Vikings pushed their early-season record to 3-0.

So far so good the Vikings for the most part are staying healthy

 

Darnold's MRI is today, but he says he's good... hopefully he's right.

A little concern around the Vikings team about Jeffersons finger, but we'll know more on that later also.

But, yep, things are better than I anticipated. I wonder if the media that claims the Vikings are pretenders and posers and lucky etc, etc, will start to change their minds a bit? Beating the 49ers and Texans, albeit at home, is impressive, but if they can hang outdoors in Green Bay next week, the Vikings might need a bigger band-wagon, lol.

And how about that defense?
