You all are such skeptics. You'd probably complain even if they hung you with a new rope. Maybe there was a bunch of conversation about passing on him because his groin problem might linger. I don't know.

. . Courtney Cronin@CourtneyRCronin Wyatt Davis is the third team center right now. Oli Udoh is getting third team right guard reps. Vikings continue to mix around offensive linemen. Courtney Cronin@CourtneyRCronin Bisi Johnson just came out of the training room and got in a golf cart with a large brace on his right leg.

IF Barr can end Rodger's season on 11/21/21, then the Vikings can win the division, otherwise they will finish 2nd in the division.

Has our quarterback learned how to run a two-minute drill yet?

Guy in town has season tickets and is willing to sell. My kid wants to go to the Seattle game but I'm not sure yet. We're flying down to Atlanta to see the Truist Stadium next week. I would love to see you guys again.

joejitsu -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/31/2021 3:30:40 PM)
It sounds like Wyatt has been working out at center, and Udoh has been getting reps at rg. Could this mean that he might get the nod at center over Bradbury, and Udoh will start at rg? That would be interesting. Still doesn't fix the Darrisaw situation, but it could be an interesting thing to keep an eye on.

Mark Anderson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/31/2021 4:55:21 PM)
Mond has a positive test. Other QBs are high risk candidates. Get it out of the way now. Better than during the season.

David Levine -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/31/2021 5:32:15 PM)
Tom Pelissero@TomPelissero The #Vikings are expected to be without three quarterbacks -- including starter Kirk Cousins -- for tonight's practice after rookie Kellen Mond tested positive for COVID-19, per league sources. Cousins is a high-risk close contact. The team is going through contact tracing. ----------- Tom Pelissero@TomPelissero I’m told Jake Browning is expected to get all the reps tonight at QB for Minnesota’s primetime practice on @nflnetwork ----------- Arif Hasan@ArifHasanNFL Zimmer clearly frustrated. Tersely explains this is why people should get vaccinated. "Some people don't understand I guess" ----------- Arif Hasan@ArifHasanNFL Jake Browning is "vaccinated. That helps to be the backup" says Zimmer ----------- Minnesota Vikings@Vikings “This Delta variant is tough and you can see the cases going up. For the sake of everybody it’s important, but some don’t see it that way.” - Coach Zimmer

Mark Anderson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/31/2021 6:08:15 PM)
Does anyone know if Mond was vaccinated?

Todd M -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/31/2021 6:28:35 PM)
Gonna guess 3 of the QB's were not...

Mark Anderson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/31/2021 6:38:29 PM)
quote: ORIGINAL: Todd M Gonna guess 3 of the QB's were not... Did they ever figure out how long (natural) antibodies give protection? Fully vaccinated people are getting it. And, I guess, transmitting it. Probably highly unlikely but it is happening(Don Mattingly)

Todd M -> RE: General Vikes Talk (7/31/2021 7:03:17 PM)
I doubt Zim has the same message if Mond got it after being vaccinated. I think it would have been noted. I'm sure the message was mostly meant for Kirk...

If the natural antibodies give 6 month protection, Kirk should have Mond sneeze on him a few times. Be back at it for 2nd and 3rd Pre Season games. A vaccinated player(Browning) could contract "Delta" and get rid of it before anyone would know(they wouldn't even know). They get tested once every 2 weeks.
