QB's only get hit during games. Standard rule for every team.

Looks like Sparano needed some Beavers.

The #Vikings have made a roster move! That is, to sign old friend Willie Beavers to the practice squad and release Bronson Hill from squad.

Yeah I see we resigned Beavers to the squad ?

Yes let’s sign a freaking horrible LT again
we wouldn’t want a good offensive line!

He looked improved in the preeason. Probably better than the guy they just released by 2-10%.

Vikings QB Sam Bradford did have his left knee scoped Tuesday by Dr. James Andrews, who "cleaned up" the knee in hopes of easing pain and discomfort, sources said. Team decision still pending on IR. Update coming on ESPN.com

Teddy activated, Sam to IR. He can return if they make it to the playoffs.

Bittersweet news. Unless Sam can come back if we make the playoffs and play and play well the deal seems to be another flop by the Vikings.

I know "I told you so" posts are highly frowned upon but....arthritis. I'd put money on it at this point.

Griffen back at practice. Zimmer said he expects him to go.

No Remmers (concussion) or Sirles (knee)

I was watching some highlights, and one guy who no one falls about is Blake Bell. He was QB in college but has turned into a pretty good blocking TE.
