Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer told reporters Case Keenum will receive another start when the team travels to take on the Falcons, Courtney Cronin of ESPN reports.
Despite throwing for at least 280 yards in four consecutive games and riding a six-game win streak as the starter, the veteran quarterback’s status as the No. 1 signal-caller is on a week-to-week basis. Though Teddy Bridgewater is on his way back from his long hiatus, it would make no sense to pull one of the league’s hottest quarterbacks in favor of someone who hasn’t played in almost two years.
Since starting in a 23-10 win over Green Bay in Week 6, Keenum has posted a 95.4 passer rating and thrown for 1,581 yards and 10 touchdowns. With the Vikings battling for home-field advantage in the postseason, don’t expect a change under center anytime soon unless Keenum has a misstep in the coming weeks.
why is this constantly a story. The guy is 7-2 as a starter this year and has only been playing better with each game. teddy recovery is a great story but this isn’t tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers. he doesn’t give you that much a better chance of winning if at all.
if case struggles in 2 games than maybe begin the talk again but this weekly story is ridiculous right now.
Bc they don’t always have breaking news to write about so fill in articles like this keep the readers reading something rather then nothing which brings more readers to check the site more brining in more money. It’s a business dude common
“Common” and spell jr.
I don’t know what they’d even consider benching this guy. He’s gotten you this far, the defense is great and he’s doing a great job running the offense. All around this is a really good team and even if they lose a game or two down the stretch they are still making the playoffs with someone who’s your 3rd string QB. Don’t even think about benching the guy. Let Teddy be the backup and if Keenum gets hurt then you put Teddy in.
In other news the patriots are stating Brady will start on Sunday.
A team with this record should not have a quarterback controversy
