Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsOne of the all time great Vikings has called it a career.DE Brian Robison, a fourth round pick out of the University of Texas in 2006, signed a one day contract and has retired as a member of the Minnesota Vikings.The eleven year veteran retires ninth on the Vikings all time sack list with 60, third in games played by a defensive end with 173, and tied for first with Jared Allen in creative sack dances. His ‘FISH ON’ sack dance was one that always gave me a chuckle http://www.thevikingslockerroom.com/authentic-mike-hughes-jersey , and it will be missed.Robison was cut at the end of last year’s training camp, as the Vikings defensive line underwent a bit of a youth movement, and his leadership seemed to be missed throughout last season. He was a leader on and off the field, and his ‘96 Questions’ segment on the Vikings official website became must watch entertainment for me and many other Vikings fans.Robison was never the best or most athletic defensive lineman the Vikings ever had, but you’d be hard pressed to find a guy more dedicated to his craft than he was, and his hard work paid off with an 11 year career. I am sad to see him call it a career Womens Tom Compton Jersey , but it’s really cool that a guy this well liked by Vikings players and fans got to spend it all with the Vikings. Congratulations to Brian Robison on one heck of a fine career, and his retirement from the NFL.

No corresponding roster move was announced.When Rams head coach Sean McVay took over before the 2017 NFL season, he was already established as one of the premier up and coming offensive minds in the NFL. He wasted little time transforming Rams QB Jared Goff from ‘bust’ to a franchise QB.He has also shown an eye for maximizing talent at WR. WRs Brandin Cooks and Robert Woods both eclipsed 1200 yards in 2018 and Cooper Kupp was on pace for over 1100 yards before he was lost for the season with a torn ACL. After losing Kupp, Josh Reynolds showed flashes of being a very capable NFL receiver as well.I outline all of this because the Rams have four WRs on the roster who can contribute in a major way - and that’s not including TEs or RBs. Meaning that any UDFAs would likely be fighting for practice squad slots as a best case scenario.I sincerely hope that Sumpter was able to improve from his brief stint with the Rams and hope that he can use that experience to catch on elsewhere in the NFL. The Panthers are feeling optimistic. Or at least buying themselves a minute to come up with a Plan B.Via Jourdan Rodrigue of TheAthletic.com Joseph Noteboom Jersey , Panthers General Manager Marty Hurney confirmed that quarterback Cam Newton has a “mid-foot sprain in his left foot.”Hurney also said “we are cautiously optimistic he will be ready for Week One.”That would be the best-case scenario for the former MVP, giving him 16 days to prepare to play the Rams.It also gives them a second to find a better backup plan, after Kyle Allen and rookie Will Grier have so far not proven themselves ready for the job.For an experienced team that went all-in on a number of veteran free agents this offseason (Gerald McCoy http://www.theramslockerroom.com/authentic-jamon-brown-jersey , Matt Paradis, etc.), leaving the backup quarterback position in the hands of kids was a strange choice — more of a wish than a plan.Now Womens Greg Zuerlein Jersey , we have to see if they truly think Newton’s going to be well, or whether they scramble to add some veteran cover.

t McCoy pretty good to be our backup Craig Mager Color Rush Jersey , for a reason. - Hogs HavenJay Gruden spoke to reporters today as the Redskins adjust to Colt McCoy as their new starting QB following Alex Smith’s season-ending leg injury. The Redskins are on a short week as they prepare for Thursday’s away game against the Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day. There were no real injury updates, but no one has been ruled out yet.Five things to watch when the Cowboys host the Redskins on Thanksgiving - Blogging The BoysA lot has happened since then as the Cowboys are coming off of two impressive road wins against the last two NFC champions. Maher has continued to have struggles, but he did just knock down his second game-winning field goal of the season in the Atlanta game. And once again Jason Verrett Color Rush Jersey , the Cowboys have a chance to get above .500 and finish the week with the #1 spot in the division. This is a big game. The Los Angeles Chargers star running back Melvin Gordon has left the game following an apparent knee injury. While trying to score, Gordon tripped over offensive lineman Dan Feeney. Not only did the trip prevent him from getting into the end zone, Gordon came up limping and then went back to the ground and had to be attended to by trainers. Eventually Denzel Perryman Color Rush Jersey , Gordon walked off the field under his own power and returned to the locker room for further treatment and analysis.For now, Gordon has to be considered questionable to return. Immediately after his exit, the Chargers tried to run Austin Ekeler up the middle with no luck Antonio Gates Color Rush Jersey , though the referees did miss a rather blatant facemask penalty on the play. Following that failed play, Anthony Lynn elected to attempt a 21-yard field goal and Michael Badgley converted it for three points.Hopefully, Gordon will be evaluated and deemed ready to return Derwin James Color Rush Jersey , but for now we wait.UPDATE: Melvin Gordon is back out of the locker room.

TOPEKA Janoris Jenkins Color Rush Jersey , Kan. (AP) — estified at a preliminary hearing about a shooting in Kansas that killed his best friend and former Washburn University teammate as they stood outside a party where they were celebrating Ballentine being drafted.Ballentine’s testimony at a preliminary hearing Monday came a day after he made his debut with the Giants, who drafted him in the sixth round on April 27 just hours before the shooting. He was wounded and 23-year-old Dwane Simmons, a defensive back who would have been a senior this year for Washburn, was killed. Three other Washburn players in the group were not injured.Francisco Alejandro Mendez, 18, is charged in Shawnee County with first-degree murder, four counts of attempted first-degree murder and seven counts of aggravated robbery in the shooting, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported . After the hearing, Mendez was bound over for trial, with an arraignment scheduled Sept. 26.Ballentine, 23, missed the Giants rookie camp as he recovered from his injuries. He made the team as a cornerback and kick returner and on Sunday, he returned two kickoffs for 46 yards for the Giants in their season opening 35-17 loss to the Dallas Cowboys.He testified that he and friends spent the day celebrating his draft selection and ended up at an off-campus house party. As the Washburn players were leaving the party they stopped outside to discuss plans for the next day when Ballentine said he noticed a car with no lights turning onto the street.The car slowed and stopped near the group and someone in the car asked the players their names. When one of the football players said, “Don’t worry about all that,” the car pulled forward about 20 feet and stopped. Then Ballentine heard gunshots, he said.“Initially Riley Dixon Color Rush Jersey , it was slow,” he said of the gunfire. “Then it started speeding up after I started running.”Investigators said about 20 shots were fired at the five football players.Ballentine said he realized as he was running that he was shot but he kept running to a friend’s nearby house. He tried to call Simmons “but he didn’t pick up” and then called another Washburn teammate to get a ride to the hospital. He didn’t realize until later that Simmons had been killed, he said.Ballentine said the bullet that ended up in his buttocks near his pelvic bone is still there.Alan Martinez, deputy district coroner for Shawnee County, testified that Simmons died from a single gunshot wound to the forehead.Mendez has been jailed since his arrest May 1 in connection with three robberies allegedly committed a day before the shootings. He is being held on $1 million bond. PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The champions got their swagger back.After a pair of tough losses, the Philadelphia Eagles rebounded with a dominant performance on the road against a division rival and dismissed talk of a Super Bowl hangover.Carson Wentz and Co. aren’t going anywhere. They proved it in a 34-13 victory over the New York Giants on Thursday night. The Eagles (3-3) are still frontrunners in the NFC East, and they’re determined to make another long run.“Having let a couple games slip through our hands, and this is what I love about the team, the players don’t panic,” coach Doug Pederson said Friday. “The players are resilient. The players know. Players are smart. You guys are around them. They understand what’s going on. They see it. They hear it. They read about it. They see it on television. And then as coaches, we point stuff out.”Several of the team’s weaknesses were exposed during the first five weeks, especially in consecutive close losses to Tennessee (26-23 in overtime) and Minnesota (23-21). The offensive line had trouble protecting Wentz. The defensive line couldn’t get enough pressure on quarterbacks. The secondary gave up a lot of yards passing.But they put it all together against the struggling Giants and showed flashes of the team that dominated the NFC on its way to winning the Super Bowl last season.“When I talk about ownership, the guys have to take it upon themselves to make the necessary changes to fix,” Pederson said. “Our behavior has to change, right? Our standards have to change just a little bit. They have to elevate just a little bit. And I can stand up here and talk to the team until I’m blue in the face, but until they realize it Mario Edwards Jr Color Rush Jersey , until they take ownership of it, until they sort of embrace it, it probably won’t change.“And what I saw the last couple of weeks is they’re saying and doing the right things. They’re showing up to practice every day. They’re not complaining about a short week. They’re not making excuses for injury. And that’s what our culture has established. That’s what a veteran sort of led team can establish, and they’ve embraced that, and they’ve risen to the challenge, and I think they’d had enough, and quite honestly, they rose to the occasion last night and played well in all three phases.”Now the Eagles have a few extra days of rest to prepare for a home game against Carolina in Week 7. It’ll give players more time to heal from injuries.Nine-time Pro Bowl left tackle Jason Peters left the game with a biceps injury. Pederson said the medical staff is still evaluating the extent of his injury but the early indication is positive.Cornerback Sidney Jones is week-to-week after he sustained a hamstring injury.Veteran running back Darren Sproles missed his fifth straight because of a hamstring injury and he could return next week. The Eagles lost Jay Ajayi for the remainder of the season after he tore an ACL against the Vikings.Wendell Smallwood (18 carries for 51 yards) and Corey Clement (11 carries for 43 yards, one touchdown) handled primary running duties. Personnel boss Howie Roseman could make a deal before the October 30 deadline.“Both these guys are determined runners. They run hard. They run aggressive. They’re really good backs for us,” Pederson said. “A lot of confidence in both of those guys, and what they do, very versatile. And it’s just two guys that really take their job serious and feel like they have to prove something every single day, and that’s what you want out of your players, that they’re out there proving themselves over and over because it just makes them better and it makes us better as an offense. I’ve been real encouraged by both those guys.”

SANTA CLARA Ahkello Witherspoon Color Rush Jersey , Calif. (AP) —cess by describing the Seahawks as a “middle of the road” team a few weeks ago, his former teammates took offense.Heading into the rematch this week between Sherman’s new team, the San Francisco 49ers, and his old one, former teammate Frank Clark had a stern message for the player who helped lead Seattle’s defense to a Super Bowl title five years ago.“He’s not in this locker room anymore, so his opinion really doesn’t matter,” defensive lineman Frank Clark said.Article continues below ...“You know what I mean? They’ve got problems over there in San Fran that he needs to be worried about. At the end of the day, this is my team now. This is my defense. Richard Sherman and his era is over here.“If he’s got anything to say about our defense, he can say it on the field. We’re 1-0 against Richard Sherman right now, and we’re 1-0 against the San Francisco 49ers this year.“Our plan is to be 2-0. So we’re going into their stadium next week with pure aggression. We’re going to stop that run and we’re going to have fun on third downs.”The Seahawks (8-5) dominated the first meeting in a 43-16 win at home two weeks ago https://www.49ersfanshop.com/C.-J.-Beathard-Jersey , winning their 10th straight game over the 49ers (3-10) in a rivalry that used to be one of the league’s fiercest.Now in a season that started with talk of the 49ers emerging as an NFC West contender behind quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and the Seahawks falling following the breakup of the “Legion of Boom” defense is heading to the finish with Seattle still holding the upper hand.The Seahawks can clinch a playoff berth with a win Sunday, while the 49ers are tied for the worst record in the league and only playing for draft position and next season.“At the end of the day in this league if you don’t end up with the trophy then how great was your season anyway?” Sherman asked.“We’re fighting, we’re struggling, dealing with injuries. But at the end of the day there’s only one team that ends up with the trophy. Unfortunately it won’t be us this year and we’ll see if it’s them.”Here are some other things to watch:KITTLE’S CATCHESTight end George Kittle has been the major bright spot in a down season for the 49ers. After catching seven passes for 210 yards — all in the first half — last week, Kittle holds the single-season record for yards receiving for a San Francisco tight end with 1,103. Kittle fell 5 yards short of breaking Shannon Sharpe’s single-game record for a tight end and coach Kyle Shanahan apologized for not getting him the record.“Every play mattered there at the end so you’re just trying to call plays to try to win the game, not to break a record,” he said. “That’s what you feel bad about. I wish he could have broken the record. He deserved to.”STABLE LINESeattle is likely to be without starting guard D.J. Fluker for the second straight game because of a hamstring injury, but his replacement has proven to be more than adequate.Perhaps it’s just coincidence but Seattle’s two best running games this season have come with Jordan Simmons in the lineup.Simmons started for Fluker in Week 10 against the Los Angeles Rams when the Seahawks rushed for 273 yards. And he was in the lineup again last week against Minnesota when Seattle ran for 214 yards.Fluker has been a key component of Seattle’s success this season, so it’s mostly coincidence about when its two best running games have happened. But the run game has been a critical part of Seattle’s success this season and the Seahawks rushed for 168 yards in the first meeting against San Francisco.SHOEGATEThe Niners are still a bit steamed about a play in the game two weeks ago in Seattle. Linebacker Fred Warner lost his shoe and Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson tossed it out of his way. While Warner went behind the line to try to get his shoe Matt Breida Jersey , the Seahawks went into hurry-up mode and drew an offside penalty when Elijah Lee couldn’t get on the field in time as Warner rushed off. Shanahan got a personal foul for arguing the call and then was fined $25,000 on top of it for the outburst.“They told us there was nothing the player could do,” Shanahan said. “So, that’s what I told Fred. Next time, just make it more obvious. We’re going to get the penalty anyway, so hopefully, sit down and make it as obvious as you can. Hopefully then common sense will prevail.”LINEBACKER CHANGEThe Seahawks were hoping to get Mychal Kendricks back from suspension to hold down the weakside linebacker position until K.J. Wright was fully healthy. That plan lasted one game as Kendricks was injured against Minnesota and is out for the season after being placed on injured reserve.Wright is not expected to return to the lineup for another couple of weeks, meaning second-year linebacker Austin Calitro will rejoin the starting lineup. Calitro has started three games at weakside linebacker and one at middle linebacker this season, and played well alongside Bobby Wagner. Well, it’s something!"WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections 49ers Salary CapLevi’s Stadium Events49ers Transactions49ers Injury News49ers Press Conferences & Conference Calls49ers Quarterback49ers backup quarterbacks make the ‘first’ or best tierNew Trent Taylor Color Rush Jersey ,54commentsWell, it’s something!PDTShareTweetShareShare49ers backup quarterbacks make the ‘first’ or best tierThe San Francisco 49ers have few things to be listed as No. 1, but when they do, it’s something to celebrate. We have the No. 1 tight per Pro Football Focus and now, according to our own SB Nation’s Christian D’Andrea has created tiers of backup quarterbacks. The 49ers make the first tier with Nick Mullens. A tier including Indianapolis Colts’ Jacoby Brisset, Los Angeles Chargers’ Tyrod Taylor, New Orleans Saints’ Teddy Bridgewater, Washington’s Case Keenum, and Tennessee Titans’ Ryan Tannehill. One thing: We trulydon’t know who the backup quarterback is yet. That is to be decided in training camp in a few months. The battle is between C.J. Beathard and Mullens, but many of you are ready to see the 49ers move onto Mullens right now. First https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Adrian-Colbert-Jersey , here’s what D’Andrea said about Mullens: The tier is one of quarterbacks who “could acceptably start in worse situations,” and that sounds like a good description for Mullens. The 49ers backup quarterback battle gets going when training camp starts. Given that he’s been benched twice, the 49ers may want to cut ties with Beathard sooner rather than later given that they’ve shown they don’t have faith in him to get the job done. Mullens really has developed as a quarterback given he began on the practice squad as an undrafted free agent two years ago. Backup quarterback isn’t the greatest problem to have, but knowing you at least don’t have issues with a second signal caller coming in for a game or a quarter for whatever the reason is refreshing. Just so much as the 49ers don’t lose their starter three weeks into the season. I mean, look at the Seattle Seahawks. They are in the final tier, “Tier VII: Young guys who look in no way ready” with Paxton Lynch.

key contributors" for FOX Competition Committee acknowledged missed call against Cooks on Super Bowl 53 I USA TodayHad the news that pass interference calls and non-calls can be reviewed beendropped a few months ago Marcus Peters Jersey , the Rams Super Bowl run could’ve been drastically changed. Thats right, the competition committee acknowledged that they missed one when Brandin Cooks was interfered with late in the game, and the Rams missed a chance to have the ball on the 1 in a first a goal situation. Oddly enough, Rams fans never took this missed call to congress. Snead says Rams won’t be able to afford Ndamukong Suh I ESPNThe writing has been on the wall for a while, but Rams GM Les Snead has acknowledged that cap restraints will prevent the Rams from retaining the services of DL Ndamukong Suh. The Rams used Suh in a variety of ways, with Suh’s greatest impact taking place during the Rams playoff run that culminated in a Super Bowl loss despite a very strong defensive effort. A Jared Goff extension is not necessarily in the Rams immediate future. I NBC SportsThe Rams continue to try to capitalize on the window of opportunity created by Jared Goff’s rookie deal. Though an extension seems likely David Long Los Angeles Rams Jerseys , the Rams apparently aren’t rushing things on the front. Last season Goff continued to show improvement and was arguably the Rams offensive MVP, but also had a late season rough patch and seemed puzzled by the Patriots defense in the Super Bowl. The Rams have interest in keeping Marcus Peters beyond next season I ESPNBefore emerging as a dominant group late in the season and through the postseason, the Rams defense had a mostly inconsistent regular season. When things went wrong, nobody received more heat that cornerback Marcus Peters. Through it all though, Peters actually played pretty well down stretch, partly aided by the return of the Rams other corner Aqib Talib. The Rams seem to think Peters showed enough in his turnaround to warrant a potential new deal at some point. We’ll see if that’s just talk or actually culminates in a deal.

It’s also the biggest one for the Rams in 2019.The Super Bowl hangover.It doesn’t mean anything specifically. Wikipedia has citations that identify three separate “phenomena” for teams that make the Super Bowl. But because it’s a three-word phrase that can be appropriated for television and radio, is has currency. And it has the most currency of anything for the Rams heading into 2019 because of how 2018 ended.The Rams had one of the best offenses in the NFL in 2018. But because of how that offense performed in Super Bowl LIII against the New England Patriots, there are now questions as to whether that offense can excel moving forward.Those questions are, to be blunt Youth David Long Jersey , unnecessary and misguiding.Yes, the offense that was among the top (insert # less than 6 here) offenses in the NFL that returns nine of 11 starters should be able to be among the top offensive units again. And that means that a defense that underperformed overall across the breadth of the season especially as a run defense won’t be pressured to improve much. That the Rams found success with and excellent offense while the defense tried to find consistency is a template they might repeat in 2019...and hopefully to similar levels of success.But this world is the world we live in.We will have to subject ourselves to the lazy calls from analysts who lean into phrases like “Super Bowl hangover” to subsist upon to get to the next commercial break.Does that empty maxim impend that the Rams might not win as many games in the regular season and finish their playoff run earlier? That’s an obvious possibility that has nothing to do with last year’s Super Bowl. Does it suggest that teams have “figured out” Rams Head Coach Sean McVay’s offensive blueprints? That’s an odd insinuation given that the Super Bowl was McVay’s 36th game as head coach and that the NFL isn’t in its infancy.No, the idea of a Super Bowl hangover is one borne out of probability.It is probable that the Rams won’t make the Super Bowl this year. It’s probably that we’ll win less than 13 games this season.So be it. Probabilities be damned.The bottom line is that the window of success is wide open for these Rams. That’s a much more favorable entrance than we enjoyed in any of the preceding eras before this one.There is no hangover from the Super Bowl or the playoffs or the end of the regular season or 2018 as a whole. There’s only what’s in front of us.And as a fan of the current Rams, I feel just fine about it.

Sound off Eric Kendricks Jersey , folks!" Grades: Tell us what you think about the Vikings selection of Garrett BradburyNew,266commentsSound off, folks!CDTThe pick is in for the Minnesota Vikings, ladies and gentlemen, and with that pick the Vikings address their serious need on the offensive line with the selection of North Carolina State center Garrett Bradbury.Now, I’ve said in the past that grading a draft before anyone steps on the field is a bit of a futile exercise, but I want to give everyone an opportunity to sound off about how they feel about the selection. So http://www.thevikingslockerroom.com/authentic-latavius-murray-jersey , that’s what we’re going to do here.Personally, I love it. The Vikings got the best center in this draft class, and it likely means that Pat Elflein is going to be shifted over to occupy the left guard spot. Elflein played guard in college before moving over to center, so it’s a position that he’s familiar with. I also like that idea a whole lot more than the thought of moving Riley Reiff inside from the tackle spot.A center isn’t necessarily the sexiest pick out there in terms of “wow” value or anything, but given the Vikings’ needs going into today’s draft, the board couldn’t have fallen much better for them than it did.What do you think about the selection of Garrett Bradbury, Vikings fans?

hat seems like forever for the 2019 NFL Draft to get underway http://www.thevikingslockerroom.com/authentic-mike-hughes-jersey , in just a few hours it will be all over and done with. All of the picks will be made and the undrafted free agent signing frenzy will get underway.It looks like the Minnesota Vikings are going to have a pretty active third day, whether it’s by actually making the nine picks they’ve accumulated for today’s session or trading those picks to move around the board. The Vikings have had a pretty solid draft through the first two days, but there’s still plenty of room for more players to be added.We’ll be watching all of the action here this morning and afternoon, folks. We hope that you’ll be watching with us.I’ll be manning the Daily Norseman Twitter account and commenting on there. You can see the feed below.Tweets by DailyNorseman Again, we ask that GIF usage for this and the other Discussion threads we’re going to have today be kept to a minimum so that things don’t get bogged down.With that, it’s nearly time to get Day 3 of the 2019 NFL Draft underway, everyone! Enjoy the action, and we’ll have all the latest on what the Vikings are doing in Nashville.Vikings at Titans Preseason 2018: Five Game-Changing Plays WE MADE IT!Congratulations, football fans. We have officially endured the dog days of summer. The slog of Training Camp and preseason is finally in our rear view mirrors. The next time we see the Minnesota Vikings take the field, it will actually count.And that’s a good thing, because the football we watched last night wasn’t exactly thrilling. With most of the starters on the bench, it was a death match between a lot of players that will be unemployed by Labor Day. It was also a death match to our eyes for most of the evening. We should pray that there isn’t a labor strike after the current CBA expires after the 2020 season, because watching the fourth preseason game is like glimpsing into a grim post-apocalyptic future. The Replacements was a work of fiction for a reason.Although Thursday night’s soggy and sloppy game in Nashville was pretty excruciating for the most part, let’s try to wring out a handful of highlights from the Vikings’ 13-3 win over the Titans.Play 1: Titans ball, 2nd & 15 at the Tennessee 20. First quarter, 14:50 remaining. L.Falk pass short left to D.Fluellen to TEN 24 for 4 yards (E.Wilson, D.Parry) [S.Weatherly]. PENALTY on MIN-S.Weatherly, Roughing the Passer Womens Tom Compton Jersey , 15 yards, enforced at TEN 24.The referees were in fourth preseason game form last night too.Stephen Weatherly wasn’t late. He didn’t go low on Luke Falk. Yet he was still flagged for roughing the passer. Umm...OK? This one can’t even be chalked up to “maybe the league is just over-calling a new rule in the preseason to get more tape on it,” because this wasn’t enforcing a new rule. It was incorrectly enforcing an existing rule.Football is a contact sport. You have to let defensive players play defense.Play 2a: Titans ball, 1st & 10 at the Tennessee 39. First quarter, 14:28 remaining. D.Fluellen up the middle to TEN 38 for -1 yards (T.Bower).Play 2b: Titans ball, 3rd & 5 at the Tennessee 44. First quarter, 13:14 remaining. (Shotgun) L.Falk sacked at TEN 38 for -6 yards (S.Weatherly).Tashawn Bower and Weatherly would likely be locks on most 53-man rosters around the league. But since the Vikings are so deep at defensive line, you can’t write either’s name in pen just yet. If they were still fighting for their jobs last night, it’s hard to argue against their inclusion after their respective performances. Bower and Weatherly have been disruptive throughout the preseason. I had Bower firmly on the bubble and Weatherly with a good shot of getting cut in my Training Camp evaluations two weeks ago. After what they have shown, it’s hard for me to see the team parting ways with either player.(Just don’t ask me who they’re going to cut to make room for Bower and Weatherly.)Play 3: Vikings ball, 2nd & 4 at the Minnesota 38. Second quarter, 11:51 remaining. T.Siemian pass short left to R.Thomas to MIN 41 for 3 yards (J.Warmsley). MIN-R.Thomas was injured during the play. His return is Questionable.The third running back spot may have been sealed on this seemingly innocuous screen pass.Even if the injury to Roc Thomas turns out to be nothing, it kept him out for the rest of the game on Thursday and robbed him of any chance at a good final push to overtake Mike Boone. After Thomas went out, Boone had a solid showing of 56 yards on 15 carries along with another 53 yards on two catches. I’d love to see Thomas on the Practice Squad this year, but it certainly appears that Boone has won the roster spot heading into the regular season.Play 4a: Vikings ball, 4th & 2 at the Tennessee 21. Second quarter, 2:00 remaining. (Field Goal formation) D.Carlson 39 yard field goal is GOOD, Center-K.McDermott Kyle Rudolph Jersey , Holder-R.Quigley.Play 4b: Vikings ball, 4th & goal at the Tennessee 4. Third quarter, 7:08 remaining. (Field Goal formation) D.Carlson 22 yard field goal is GOOD, Center-K.McDermott, Holder-R.Quigley.Two preseason field goals of under 40 yards shouldn’t be that big of a deal, but on Thursday they were.Daniel Carlson splitting the uprights twice was a welcome sight for Vikings fans. They were both chip shots distance-wise, but it was raining and on grass. Three of Carlson’s four kickoffs were touchbacks while the fourth was returned to the Tennessee 19. It was a much better performance all around by the special teams, especially Carlson. Apparently the tough love from the Vikings coaches was effective, at least for this week.Play 5: Vikings ball, 1st & 10 at the Tennessee 24. Fourth quarter, 7:25 remaining. (Shotgun) K.Sloter pass deep right to B.Zylstra for 24 yards, TOUCHDOWN.When a hard-to-watch fourth preseason game has only one touchdown, you better believe we’re going to include it as a game-changing play.While Mike Zimmer insists that Trevor Siemian is the backup to Kirk Cousins, Kyle Sloter outperformed him again in the preseason. He finished 11 of 15 for 130 yards and this touchdown. As good as Sloter has looked in the games, he wasn’t very sharp in Training Camp practices, which might be why the team appears to be sticking to Siemian as the backup. Perhaps the coaching staff has seen more day-to-day consistency from Siemian and trusts his experience. Personally I’d have Sloter as QB2 with a bullet, but I also don’t get paid to make those decisions. Either way, it would be pretty shocking if the Vikings didn’t keep all the quarterbacks not named Peter Pujals on their roster. (But hey http://www.thevikingslockerroom.com/authentic-nick-easton-jersey , at least Pujals saw the field on Thursday!)The catch was monumental for Brandon Zylstra as well. The former Edmonton Eskimo is vying for one of the final wide receiver spots on the 53-man roster and made a good case for himself last night. He led the team with four receptions and 54 yards. Stefon Diggs, Adam Thielen, and Laquon Treadwell are locks. Apparently Kendall Wright’s job is safe as well—the coaches have said as much throughout the week and Wright didn’t even have to play on Thursday. That leaves one spot, maybe two, for the rest of the group.Tavarres King hasn’t been healthy for most of the preseason. Cayleb Jones appears to be doing enough off the field to ensure that he won’t be on the field anytime soon. Jake Wieneke has had some nice moments in the preseason, but he is probably Practice Squad at best. Korey Robertson isn’t going to last the weekend. Jeff Badet had a chance on special teams but didn’t make enough of an impact.That leaves Zylstra, Stacy Coley, and Chad Beebe. The last two were out with injuries on Thursday, so Zylsta coming back from his own and making an impact on Thursday definitely helped his case. Personally, I’d be fine with getting rid of Wright, keeping Zylstra and Coley on the 53, and moving Beebe to the Practice Squad. We’ll see what the Vikings actually decide to do.It should be a very interesting next few days as the 32 teams make over 1,100 roster cuts. You can follow along with everything right here with our roster tracker. Until then, let us know what you thought the most important play was from Thursday’s game.

rs Mackel of WDSU John Sullivan Jersey , a message posted at the state courthouse in New Orleans indicates that the case has been moved to federal court, with a hearing set for noon ET.This move means, as the NFL has confirmed to PFT, that the NFL has removed the case to federal court. It’s a right that the NFL automatically possesses, given that the plaintiffs in the case are Louisiana residents and the defendants are non-Louisiana residents. The ability of the defendants in this situation to shift the case to federal court represents an acknowledgement by the federal government of the potential for home cooking, with elected state-court judges more inclined to take care of state residents at the expense of out-of-state interests.Whatever happens at noon, the chances of an order requiring the Commissioner to take any action in relation to last Sunday’s game are somewhere between slim and none Cory Littleton Jersey , and far closer to none. It’s too late to undo or alter or replay all or any portion of the Rams-Saints game, with the Patriots-Rams Super Bowl only six days away. Ten observations from Los Angeles Rams vs. Denver Broncos in Week 6. But first, the snap count distributions. Offense Defense Special Teams Des(Troy)ed. Troy Hill had an, ahem, bad day and Aqib Talib can’t get healthy fast enough. Hill was credited with giving up 40 yard or more receptions not one, not two, but three times against Courtland Sutton Nickell Robey-Coleman Jersey , Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders, according to PFF.Todd Gurley runs wild. Pick an achievement, any achievement. Gurley had a career-high 208 rushing yards, had the Rams’ first 200 yard rushing game since 2001, has 11 touchdowns this season, the most through six games since Shaun Alexander had 12 in 2005 for the Seahawks, and is on pace for an absurd 2 Andrew Whitworth Jersey ,320 yards from scrimmage and 29 touchdowns. Sack lunch. A normally stout Rams offensive line struggled mightily Sunday, surrendering five sacks and a handful to rookie Bradley Chubb. The last time Jared Goff was sacked more than three times: Nov. 27, 2017 against New Orleans. “Big Game” Bob Woods. Robert Woods played an absolutely pivotal role Sunday against a strong Broncos defensive plan. Denver sat back deep to take away Goff’s deep play action reads and limited Brandin Cooks. Further hampered by Cooper Kupp’s injury, Woods picked up the slack, playing 72 snaps with seven catches for 109 yards to go with one carry for 12 yards. Woods is now the first Rams receiver with 80+ receiving yards in five straight games within a season was since Isaac Bruce had seven in a row in 2000, per Rams announcer J.B. Long.Quiet Goff. With Gurley shouldering the offense, Jared Goff completed only 14 passes Robert Woods Jersey , the first time since Dec. 17, 2017 he completed less than 15 passes when the Rams beat the Seahawks 42-7. Who fills Kupp’s role? With the announcement of an MCL sprain for Goff’s favorite target, someone has to pick up the slack, but none asserted themselves against Denver. Gerald Everett caught two passes for 24 yards in 21 snaps, Tyler Higbee was shutout of the passing game in 55 snaps and Josh Reynolds saw a pass ricochet off his helmet for an interception in 46 snaps. Cory Littleton should be a Pro Bowler. Littleton, again, played 100 percent of the Rams defensive snaps Brandon Allen Jersey , had five tackles and had a great tip to John Johnson for an interception. He also pitched in six special teams snaps and is fourth in the NFL in passes defended with eight - only one behind cornerbacks, that’s right, cornerbacks - Jalen Mills, Morris Claiborne and Ronald Darby. Rejoyn the pass rush party. Lamarcus Joyner had his first sack in almost two years with a second quarter takedown of Case Keenum. Joyner last had a sack in November 2016 when he still played cornerback.Run defense steps up. After an embarrassing outing against Seattle, Los Angeles’ run defense was stout. Royce Freeman and Philip Lindsay were each held below 25 yards while Denver finished with 60 yards total on the ground. Johnny Hekker with the sideline snag. Hekker hasn’t had to punt a whole lot this season, so why not make a ridiculous catch now and again.
