[podcast] Debrief S11: the Vikings in trouble

Justin Fields is assessed day to day, but you never know…

Matt Eberflus (HC, Bears) remains very evasive on the state of Justin Fields (QB). The quarterback injured his shoulder against the Falcons, and according to the statements of the coach, the quarterback is assessed on a daily basis but the end of the season is not ruled out. Difficult to have a clear vision.

“For now, you know that the injury report comes out on Wednesday. For the moment it is day by day,” declared Ebeflus at a press conference. “We will see where he is on Wednesday. So we have time to see where it is and we will advise. […] We did not rule out [la possibilité d’une fin de saison] for the moment. We will see where it is on Wednesday. »

In case of unavailability it is Trevor Siemain who could take the reins of the attack to face the Jets.

Jets: Zach Wilson threatened?

The atmosphere is tense in the Jets locker room. According to ESPN and SNY, Zach Wilson (QB) doesn’t just make people happy. In addition to his lackluster performance against the Patriots, the young quarterback failed to take responsibility in the media which resulted in some cringe among his teammates.

Consequence or not, Robert Saleh admitted to the press on Monday that Wilson does not yet seem assured of starting the next match.

“We are keeping all options on the table for the days to come. »

And when asked if he was ready to name Wilson the starter, he said no.

« Not now, not until I’ve assessed everything. » »

Broncos: It’s over for Melvin Gordon

It will have been one fumble too many. According to NFL Media, Denver announced the cut of Melvin Gordon (RB) Monday, and the runner is placed on the waiver which gives him a chance to be picked up by another franchise.

In the absence of Javonte Williams (knee), Gordon struggled to convince (318 yards, 2 TD on the run / 223 yards on reception this year) but it is above all his propensity to lose leather that costs him his place . He released five fumbles this season, including one in the red zone this weekend against Las Vegas. Latavius ​​Murray, Chase Edmonds and Marlon Mack will therefore take over for the Broncos.

Panthers: Steve Wilks is still studying his alternatives

Although Baker Mayfield (QB, Panthers) led Carolina’s offense against the Ravens, Steve Wilks (HC) is not stopped on its starting quarterback for the weeks to come. According to ProFootballTalk.com, the manager said on Monday that he is still evaluating his opportunities with Mayfield, PJ Walker and Sam Darnold. But he will know more by next Wednesday’s training.

Lovie Smith plotting changes in Houston

Even though Lovie Smith (HC, Texans) said after the game against the Commanders that he wasn’t considering « change just for the sake of change », he conceded that things had to change to prepare for the Dolphins. But nothing will happen until he has spoken to his players during the week.

“You can surely understand, about the changes and everything we do every week, we talk to the players first before we talk [aux journalistes],” Smith said according to ProFootballTalk.com. “We are not satisfied with our record. Should we do things differently? Yes, and we will. »
