Hopefully the no name RB Carlos Hyde has ended the Gerald Hodges experiment at MLB for the Vikings.
Audie Cole, the expected starter, was bumped after Hodges moved from SLB to MLB in the preseason, a position he had never played and is apparently horrendous at.
Very happy a complete nobody just put up 170 yards on him, hopefully this will force Zimmer to move on from Hodges.
PLAY of the YEAR? Kiko Alonso may be the most athletic Linebacker in the NFL...His sick one handed stab in the end-zone rivals any WR you will ever see! A difference maker!
I went to sleep at halftime of the late game bore fest. Looks like I didn't miss much.
Don - spot on with labeling Dilfer over-caffeinated. Both he and Berman were terrible. Dilfer refuses to criticize black quarterbacks - I think he used the term hyper-accurate to describe sewerwater at one point last night. Wtf does that even mean
4. Move over, Odell Beckham. Eagles linebacker Kiko Alonsomade the play of the season thus far, palming a Matt Ryan rocket one-handed while falling backwards in the end zone. This play was fantastic from a bird's eye view in the press box, which lent perspective to how open Roddy White was on the play. Alonso's play may get lost in the shuffle considering the Eagles lost.

I am sure these douches Wesseling and Orr know the reason why. Incidentally, the Giants lost the game where Beckham made that one hand catch.
Alonso is a white man, so his amazing INT will be forgotten by next week. But for now...
The Colts waived Vick Ballard hopefully giving Varga more playing time at running back. It seems that they are very high on Varga.
Kiko with a one handed int in endzone! In your face Odell Beckham! At the end of the year it will be the Eagles who won out on the Kiko -Mccoy trade.
The irony of it all was the Eagles decided Matthews was going to be their #1 and he cost them the game.
If Alonso and Hartline were name Shaquizz and DeAnthony, those two plays would be repeated non-stop on every football program for at least a year. Too bad they're white, have barely seen any coverage for either of them.
Hopefully the two can keep putting up good showings and show their former teams what they're missing out on.
