So apparently Bradford "earned" the 2017 starting job in Minnesota.

Wow.

He wasn't bad, but I can't believe they wouldn't leave open the possibility of Bridgewater playing if he's ready.

Do they plan on keeping both Bridgewater and Bradford? If so they really should have should have left it open Bridgewater is not a bad QB. If not they also should have left it open for the sake of trade values

How much money is Bradford gonna cost them when he is on the roster in 2017? How many draft picks did they lose for him again?

Then my point on the value on that match remains true. Can't use it to judge how they will be against OAK

Given injuries to backup QBs I'm not sure who will be in for each team in the game.

Thought his contract is up this year? Maybe next.
They gave up their 1st rounder for 2017

Picks are a first this year, 4th rounder this year. Bradford's under contract for only one year, at $14m plus a $4m roster bonus. Bridgewater's cap hit next year is like $2.1m. Peterson is interesting to look at, they've got roughly $23m in cap space right now, they could save $18 by cutting Peterson fairly early in the off-season.

My thinking is that the Vikes will keep Bradford around until training camp at the earliest so they can see how Bridgewater's recovering. After all, Bridgewater suffered a potential career ending or changing injury, assuming he does make a comeback, he may not be the same player he was before. If he's ready to come back for the start of next season, they can wait for someone else's QB to get hurt and offload Bradford to them for an exorbitant price. If he's not ready, and shows no sign of being ready, then they keep both because Bridgewater's contract is cheap and re-evaluate next off-season. If they sign #Bradford to a long-term extension, that probably means Bridgewater is done, at least as a Viking and possibly a pro.

That is what vikings should do. Will they do it? Don't know. For all I know they could hire Chip Kelly as their new offensive coordinator. /Bad Joke

We're potentially two plays away from Michael Crabtree QBing an NFL team in the play-offs, and McGloin's already hurt...

I'm obviously not a doctor but from what I've understood is that Bridgewaters injury could be more than a just one year thing.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I would think it would strengthen it. Personally I think it should go to Matt Ryan

Patriots don't need Brady to win. Steelers don't need Bell to win.

Raiders do need Carr, but I feel giving it to him would almost be like pitying the raiders. Also you give him an award when he can't enjoy award and playing? Feels really odd.

Dak and Zeke I feel cancel each other out. Dallas obviously needed a QB and needed Zeke. So votes from one should cancel out votes for the other.

Right.

Poker, if missing a game disqualifies Carr, then Brady and Bell are out for missing 4 and 3 respectively.

Ryan is a good choice. Rodgers is another good choice.

I'm sad the Giants lost. But this does mean the Packers have stolen their energy and are the best candidate to knock off the Cowboys.

Makes me think a lot less of Odell Beckham. Dude talks mad shit all the time and is a total diva, then when his team finally gets a chance back in the playoffs he quite literally drops the ball.

I think the death knell for the Giants is that they didn't have a running game. In 2007 and 2011 they had a baller-ass running game. So this year they had to rely on Eli and the WRs. Eli played okay, his WRs didn't deliver at all.

Steelers going all the way baby! Offense is back to where it was at the start of the season and then some!
