A hot woman or a hot breakfast treat. Take your pick.

I thought that the "hot woman" was a Strumpet

 

[DaBruinz]

I didn't see any injuries reported. Were there any?

Yes, Kyle Williams was possibly concussed by a hospital ball from Dobbs. I blame @Steve102 and @TommyD4207 for continually leaving him off 53 man roster projections…..

Fair.
Also he caught the ball despite Dobbs trying to hospitalize him. Can we be done with the 'he can't catch' ******** now?

 

[Huckleberry1]

His TD catch was a real pro catch and run. Also broke tackles to get a 1st down on 3rd and long, after getting hit well short.

He was also wide open underneath on the same route the play before it.

 

[TommyD4207]

Vrabel said he'd have an update on Kyle Williams tomorrow.

Williams told Dan Roche from Channel 4 he was fine in the locker room after the game. I think Vrabel was at the podium at the time.

 

[Steve102]

Again Steve you were right about Barefoot Mack Hollins.

Christopher Price: Multiple reporters around Efton Chism. Other wide receivers smile and laugh good-naturedly. "Efton for President!" All Chism does is smile.

Thankfully he's not 35 for a good few years yet.

Aside from the Chism deep pass, I thought Josh McDaniels was pretty conservative tonight. Would like to see more downfield ball.

It was good for me.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

And then there's Anfernee 'Lawrence Taylor' Jennings and his three sacks.

Great line. Well done.

Minnesota played almost exclusively 2-high safeties. They were either really vanilla or were thinking their pass rush was going to get home (it never really did). But that's why everything was underneath or to the sidelines.

Now, can we please get rid of these God forsaken uniforms?? (Although the whites aren’t terrible).

I like the away whites.

Interesting. Thanks.

 

[p8ryts]

Did CJ Dippre play tonight? I don't think I heard his name mentioned and haven't seen much excitement about him in camp. Who's favourite for TE3?

I saw him a couple of times.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

with you there old boy

As @manxman2601 says, not bad at all.

 

[TommyD4207]

Interesting. Thanks.

Yeah, that's why they felt comfortable running on 3rd and long.

 

[p8ryts]

Did Wallace and L Robinson play at all. I didn't see them.

 

[p8ryts]

Still can't wrap my head around Brown as starting LG or C.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

I have bolded, italicized, underlined and increased the font size so that people notice this. He's not a finished product, he hasn't even taken a real snap in anger yet.

But he was playing against 2nd and 3rd teamers (guys that will not be on the Vikings roster in 2 weeks). So he was one of the stars of the game, but let's not get too overly excited. The best part is that Douglas feels the heat breathing down his neck. Iron sharpens iron.
