As good as our defense has been, adding Kendricks back into the mix makes it that much scarier :point:

No kidding. And an improved Greenway. He stepped up. But Kendricks is so good, he and Barr may have a field day with Mr. Rogers, if Zimmer dials up their number on a blitz. Kend is amazing fast, imo. Now Barr just looks fast, but I dont think Kend would be far behind in a race. Some great freaking LB's we have.

Neat.
@Andrew_Krammer Matt Kalil (toe) back at #Vikings practice today. All accounted for.

I'm glad the Titans played on Thursday. I can almost guarantee if the jaguars and Titans were playing on Sunday in the same time slot, they would televise that game instead here in Hawaii.

@mattvensel Harrison Smith said he isn't sure if he will practice today, but it sounds like he avoided a significant injury.

Off to a great start :wallbang:
@mattvensel Harrison Smith and Everson Griffen are not practicing today. #Vikings
Edit: surprising that Kalil would be practicing.

Well, at least it's not the two best players on our defense...

Smith ruled out for Sunday.

This is a huge blow....lets hope Exum or whoever Zim goes with can step it up.

It is a big blow. IMO Smith is the best player on the whole team. He reminds me of Sauce.
I'm glad Munnerlyn is playing so well...but not having Smith back there could be huge.

I would love to see how Rhodes would do back there. He is one of the surest tacklers on the team. (yeah I know that it wont happen) but If Waynes could take his corner spot then Rhodes and he could cover Jones.

That would be an interesting strategy.
In any case I'm kind excited to see what Exum can do, if he gets the nod. I'm expecting to see Blanton though.
