Thielen & Jefferson not practicing

Jefferson's press conference the other day, he said he will definitely be playing sunday (of course so did CMC last week.)  At any rate, nobody from the Vikings fanbase seems to think they won't be playing sunday, even though they haven't practiced all week.

2nd consecutive day the WR duo have not practiced.. Smokescreens or will we be facing 3rd and 4th string receivers?

Vikings are probably going to lean heavy on the run game with Dalvin Cook back in the lineup. Slows down our pass rush and limits opportunities to sack Cousins. Based on the Dallas game, they may decide to test our inconsistent run defense more than our loaded secondary.

Jefferson will play. Even if he's limited we will have our hands full with him. I hope Chuba is ready to have a big day bc that's the only way we'll win with this offense if Sam is still doing his best Kyle Allen impression.

We are probably going to need defensive scores or at minimum 2-3 short fields to win games. Our offensive line is that bad. Can’t see how we sustain a drive.

    • I mean, yes, there is a difference between looking at a box score and watching film.  But PFF has a big subjective aspect to some of their grades.  That's how you get a 2/4 being better than 3/5 with a TD.  You aren't using stats at that point or factual events, but subjective analysis of plays.   And it's not like it is the same subjective analysis applying across all the players.   Same guy grading BY's incompletions (which are putting him over the top) isn't grading everyone else's incompletions and completions.  So it's different subjective takes/viewpoints applied.  There is no way everyone at PFF views grading out a play the same.  Then it all dumps into the same spreadsheet.  Hit the sort button.  Sometimes I feel it gets really weird and and collective data starts saying some weird stuff that just isn't true.   
    • Yeah, Sanders had a very nice debut preseason performance but the folks acting like he's arrived based on that performance are getting way out ahead of themselves.
    • I won't be surprised if Graham disappoints. Maybe not outright bust but never lives up to his draft status. The more I watched him at Michigan the more I came away impressed by the other Michigan DT. I think he might be the real player. Usually when you have two high level prospects in the same college unit one of them ends up getting fraud checked in the NFL as being largely carried by the other guy. Peppers and Ryan Sims at UNC comes to mind. Lavar Arrington and Courtney Brown at Penn State, etc.
