Vikings pass defense

Should be the same call this week and let Dalton play. It will be the perfect week to get on the winning side and give the team some confidence going forward for the 2nd quarter of the season. Doi you really think that a one game sit and Young is going to come out and set the world on fire in the NFL.

Players usually come back when they are healthy. If Young is cleared he will play.

Cam Newton was cleared with a broken back.  89 cleared with broken ribs. 

Frank doesn’t talk about Bryce’s ankle because no one is waiting on a doctor to say it’s ok.  You are waiting on Frank and Bryce.

He stated once the doctors clear him he will start again. Cam playing through injuries worked out so well in his short career. Terrible example.

The eye test so far says he lacks NFL level arm strength. Many are saying/seeeing it. 

Many people, smart people, are running up to me with tears in their eyes.  "Sir, you were right all along, he lacks NFL arm strength".  Crazy Nancy, Sleepy Joe, Crooked Hillary, they said Bryce has an NFL arm.  They said "oh no, Trump is wrong about Bryce's arm".  Nobody knows more about football than me, I know many things.  Frankly things that a lot of people don't know much about

I mean, every player that has ever played here of note is an example.   I just named the 2 biggest superstars and most important people.  

Frank is careful with his words in the very limited talk on Bryce.  They all talk about it super weird.  That’s just a reality. Frank, Brown, Dalton, etc.

Frank said it’s an ankle injury and when he is cleared by the doctors he will be the starter again. I’m sorry that’s not clear to you.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
