Phil Loadholt retiring

Phil Loadholt has told the Vikings he plans to retire, a source confirmed.

Loadholt, 30, was placed on injured reserve in each of the previous two seasons, only playing in 11 of the team’s 32 regular-season games. In 2014, a torn pectoral ended his season after 11 games. In 2015, he tore his Achilles’ tendon during the preseason and was lost for the entire season.

Loadholt was back on the field for spring workouts and lined up as the first-team starting right tackle during practices open to the media. But after experiencing another injury-related setback in the past few weeks, the 6-foot-8, 345-pound tackle decided it was time to retire.

Loadholt, who took a pay cut in March to remain on the team, was slated to battle with free-agent addition Andre Smith to start at right tackle.

The Vikings drafted Loadholt in the second round in 2009 and he started right away. He missed just two games in his first five NFL seasons and was one of the NFL’s better right tackles before injuries derailed his career.

Loadholt has also been a respected voice in the Vikings locker room and a strong representative of the organization in the community.

ESPN first reported that Loadholt planned to retire from the NFL.

Better than both Remmers and Oher, just couldn't stay healthy.  A true Sooner.  Enjoy retirement, Phil.

I stand corrected. You and the girl that pretends to be a character from a TV show are the only ones posting non panther related poo on the main forum. 

Damn, you still didn't pay attention?  It was some dude named Arsen.

And another thread was posted about Elliot by some MC guy.  

So, yeah.  Not me and two other people.   

And Jeremy posted about Greg Hardy.  So there's 3 other people.  

He also posted about plain vs peanut M&M's.  But yeah, I'm the only one.  What a complete fail that is.

"I'm going to get butt hurt, and defend my OP that nobody gives a fug about, by pointing out that another poster (one much more respected than I),  posted about that idiot, Aldon Smith!!!

 

Where is the justice?

 

I demand fairness!!"

 

Yes, boys and girls, it's Monday on the huddle.

should I go back and edit it to "daily"? would that be more accurate?

Sure, checks activity.  Finds out he hasn't started a thread since Thursday, and before that July 19th.  So, wrong again.  Do you enjoy being wrong or something?

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
