 Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Vikings.com has a good interview with D-line coach Andre Patterson up. Check it out. Interesting comments on the guys. Will Sutton in particular.

I like Andre Patterson. He does a good job with his Dlines.

Ben Goessling @GoesslingStrib 5m The Vikings lost running back Bishop Sankey to a torn ACL on Thursday night: strib.mn/2wBF3Rn
Hope he has a good recovery.

Goodness. Hopefully the season brings something a little better offensively.

Rhodes went down in practice today but said OK.
Treadwell back at practice but said his thigh still isn't right.

 Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Internal. With Sendejo out Kearse got work with the 1s in practice. He had a decent game vs the Bills, particularly in run support. Better angles than last year. Sendejo's reason for being out is undisclosed. http://www.twincities.com/2017/08/12/gu ... teams/amp/

 Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
With Wayne's and Sendejo injury status,that leaves us 2 down in the secondary. Still concerned about Reiff, he is back at practice but not doing full participation . Hill is still doing the bulk of the work. How long will it take him to get back in shape with pads?

First-team OL of Hill, Easton, Elflein, Berger, Remmers.
Also, TJ Clemmings was down to third-team guard.

 Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
@christomasson 5h #Vikings sign former Golden Gophers QB Mitch Leidner.
@christomasson 27m Taylor Heinicke didn't practice today which explains Mitch Leidner signing. Brian Robison limped off all other Vikings back at least limited

 Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Per Tomasson, Heinike has a small injury and will miss only a few practices. Doctors don't want him throwing. Got hurt diving.

 Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Gee thanks, Warren. Warren Moon says QB controversy possible if Vikings get off to slow startQuote: “I think Sam’s going to get a chance to really show what he can do because probably Teddy can’t come back for the first six games if they put him on (the physically unable to perform list to start the season). So the Vikings will have a pretty good indication of which direction they want to go based on how (Bradford) starts the season.’’
Bridgewater, who suffered a torn left ACL and dislocated knee last August and missed the season, could go on the PUP list when 53-man rosters are set Sept. 2. However, Moon believes he will be healthy enough to play this season.
“People that I know that are really close to him say he’s not far away,’’ Moon said. http://www.twincities.com/2017/08/20/wa ... low-start/

 Re: 2017 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Isn't that obvious though? Maybe not whether or not Teddy will be healthy enough to play this season, but assuming he is, I definitely agree that the first half of the season is big for Bradford and his long-term future with the Vikings.
