Vikes on NFL Network This Morning

[Dio]

Last night's game is being shown from 9-noon today. Set those DVR's for AD and Rufus.

I was watching that. I know AD and Michael Hawkins played, but I didn't see Rufus Alexander. Does anyone know if he played or if he might be hurt?

Blew his ACL. Check the training camp thread for link.

Only two photos of A.D. I could find:

From the Vikings website:"After a scoreless opening quarter, the Vikings opened up the scoring with a 13-play, 65-yard drive that began late in the first quarter and ended with 10:12 remaining in the second quarter. Ryan Longwell converted a 30-yard field goal attempt to cap a series that was jump-started by two receptions by Wade for 21 yards each from Tarvaris Jackson. First-round pick Adrian Peterson, who finished with 11 carries for 33 yards, had five carries for 13 yards and one reception on the drive."

Eh, thats ok. He will get into the swing of things. Man I wish Rufus saw solid playing time. I think he is going to be a gem.

damn does every Sooner blow their knee out in the pro's.

AD had a lot of games where he didn't do that much in the first half, and exploded for a ton of yards in the 4th quarter. That' won't happen in preseason NFL.

You can't really evaluate how he's going to do under these circumstances. He'll be fine in the regular season, if he stays healthy.

BTW... number 90 tackling him in that first picture is our old buddy from Nebraska, Adam Carriker.

The guy below that pic you mentioned looks to be going for the total package. :eek:
