No, it's been confirmed he's not playing. In fact, it sounds like not many will play this game at all.
I was excited after the first game even with the regular pressures but I'm a bit concerned with that pattern after both Viking practices. A trend might be starting even though we should expect to see early season struggles while the OL gels...if it gels (and it should, barring injuries).
I believe you just answered your own question
It's really just a matter of degree, though. If they can keep the offense functional 'while' gelling, we're good. And then it's about hitting their strides and maintaining consistency at a higher level.
If guys like MM can't play and the pressure rate remains as high as it has thus far, it could render our offense useless.
That's where the concern lies.
If our defense is as good as we think it will be, we can just run the ball 75% of the time and throw screens and checkdowns the other 25%.
Thats what we've been doing throughout the entire Jimmy G era.
that would be fine with me... but unlike jimmy.. trey always has the potential for the big play
