Hill or Bradford? Vikings haven’t decided on QB vs. Packers
And that speaks volumes about the performance.
“We tried to figure out what we didn’t do good in that game”, he said. “We were being efficient, but the turnovers really hurt us”. He finished with 11 touchdowns. “That’s going to be part of the deal, but it’s also going to open up other areas”.
“Teddy Bridgewater had his left knee surgically repaired yesterday”, Eric Sugarman, the Vikings’ director of sports medicine and head athletic trainer, said in a statement released Friday. “It’s not an extreme difference with what we’re doing this week, to be honest with you”.
Munnerlyn and the Vikings know they can’t afford the same fate today against the Tennessee Titans.
Hill, the starter after Bridgewater was lost for season August 30 with a knee injury suffered in practice, was hardly spectacular, but was solid.
Zimmer said he’d prefer to hold his “cards close to the vest” against a hard opponent and joked that he “just figured it would be good sports talk radio”.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – It appears the intrigue surrounding the identity of the Minnesota Vikings’ starting quarterback – which the team worked so diligently to protect last week – will continue for at least a few days leading up to Sunday night’s game against the Green Bay Packers. Points should be hard to come by in this game, which is why we like the under to hit. I think I can bounce back and I’ve shown that.
The Titans had a chance to close it within one score after Murray caught his second touchdown pass with 32 seconds remaining after a strong two-minute drill drive for Tennessee. They have to find a way to harness that feeling and expound on it as the season progresses.
“I did what I came here to do which was be 1/53rd part of getting a W”, Hill said.
“I don’t know all the fancy words”. “You go through an entire year, you experience a lot of different things, you go through a lot of different scenarios Eventually, you get used to it”. They won. You try not to let it happen again. The Packers will be looking to re-establish their divisional dominance after the Vikings took the NFC North crown in the 2015 season finale with 20-13 win at Lambeau Field.
While 18 total touches is hardly something to get too excited about, it may give us a sign on how the Tennessee offense will function this season. He began the season as the starting quarterback after Bradford tore his ACL and faced the Vikings in Zimmer’s first regular-season game as coach.
Sunday marked just the 35th career start for Hill.
While he wouldn’t bite when asked whether the team overlooked the 49ers past year, Griffen was clear the Vikings wouldn’t overlook the Titans. If the offense can be effective and efficient, the Vikings have a team that is poised to make a very deep run in the playoffs.
