Minnesota Vikings OT Marcus Johnson (foot) has been benched for the team's Week 14 game. OT Mike Rosenthal will start in his place and C Ryan Cook will rotate with him.

I thought there were supposed to be no more threads like this.


It really got my hopes up this time, usually Im good with this, but this was completely plausible.

We'll find out on Sunday a.m.
TJ is #2 with Bollinger listed as the emergency inactivate guy.
Childress said he would announce his decision on Sunday.
BTW, Johnson is benched, see the last item on the list.

I say this every week, but I'm always amazed at how beat up we are!

I am really glad to see Ryan Cook getting playing time now. I am a big supporter of his and hope he has a long successful career in purple.

They should all be ready to play Sunday once they get their weekly dose of Domoso.

Minnesota Vikings P Chris Kluwe (wrist) missed a portion of practice Friday, Dec. 8, and he is expected to play in Week 14. He is listed as probable on the team's injury report.

that shouldnt even make the injury report.. HE'S A KICKER!!! he only uses his wrist to hold the ball.. and he really uses his hand, which is connected to his wrist, but still

Most teams in the NFL are experiencing similar difficulties, it's a part of the game.
