Anyone heard anything about how long Fox will play them? Any idea? The offense could certainly use some work, especially the OL. But I know game 4 usually doesn't give the starters much work.

Cleveland said they are playing starters, Fox said maybe, maybe not. I hope they don't unless it is a position battle situation. There is nothing to be gained here.

Yeah, you're probably right. We sure don't need more starters to go down to injury right now.

outside of maybe Edison and Larsen (who need line call work), I wouldn't play a single "starter" a single minute.

After what happened to Minny these would be the guys who don't play:
OFF: Starters + 3 WR + anyone in the RBbC DEF: any DL who have made the team, starting LBs + Floyd, starting secondary + nickle back + the rookie safties and CBs.
I'm seriously spooked after Teddy Bridgewater basically tore his knee from his body.
Given the amount of work the offense seems to need I'd say play them the whole game.
However..........that is neither practical or safe so let Hoyer and Fales and the second and third bananas see if they're able to figure out some way to move the ball and score some points. This is Cleveland after all.

I didn't realize that TeddyB's injury was that severe. Man that sucks! You never want to see a player get hurt like that.

Teddy Bridgewater suffers dislocated knee, torn ACL

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater suffered a dislocated knee and torn ACL at practice Tuesday, the team announced in a release.
"After undergoing an MRI, it was determined that Teddy suffered a complete tear to his ACL and other structural damage," the statement read. "Fortunately, there appears to be no nerve or arterial damage. Surgical repair will be scheduled within the next few days.
"Although the recovery time will be significant, we expect Teddy to make a full recovery. I would like to thank all of the medical professionals and our athletic training staff for all of their help today. Teddy has already displayed the attitude needed to overcome this injury and attack his rehab."
The injury announcement came about two hours after an emotional scene unfolded at Vikings practice when Bridgewater went down with a non-contact injury that ended the session after just 30 minutes. Zimmer said the 23-year-old had to be sedated before undergoing an MRI at the hospital.
When asked if there was a chance Bridgewater could play this season, Zimmer responded at the time, "It doesn't look good right now."
"We're not going to stick our heads in the sand, tuck our tail between our legs," Zimmer said about the bind Bridgewater's injury could put the team in. "We're not going to make excuses.
"Everybody can count us out but I think that'd be the wrong thing to do."
According to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, Bridgewater was grabbing his left knee at practice as teammates prayed around him.
Bridgewater was taken off the field in an ambulance to the hospital, igniting the team's worst possible fears.
