Is it overly optimistic the expectations that Joe Alt will be back in 2 games from a high ankle sprain?

I wanna believe but...

The undeniable Daniel Popper says Joe can go based upon practice observations with a keen eye.

That would be delightful news!

He's a good source, CBF.

Just some perspective from the Miami game:

1) Chargers were playing Deculus (5th string OT) and Hart ( 6th string OT who was signed off the street).
2) Vidal (4th string RB)
3) QJ was out (#1 WR)
4) All 5 Olinemen played 100% of the snaps. None of them came out during the game.

They just need to string some wins together until they get players back healthy. The next 3 of 5 games are at home before the bye and 4of the 5 are against AFC teams. Hopefully, they can go 4-1 but think that is a tall ask.

Minter needs to be at his best vs INDY.
Time to dial it up against Danny Dollars

I agree. In fact, they are going to have lean heavy on the D until the bye, IMHO.

Vikes are close to a lock L. They're playing very well on O and D and we have a day of rest, two days to practice.

Huh?

[sonorajim]

Huh?

With no changes, we probably lose to Vikings. Not absolutely but probably. They have better stats on offense and defense and had week 6 off.
We need some magic between now and then.

[dmac_bolt]

yupp, if he goes down hes good, but that extra lunge put himself in a position to where he couldnt defend himself. I think like you said, has learned his lesson, you cant just float in the air to try and get the first unless your name is john elway, then youre allowed to spin like a helicopter and be safe from fumbling

I thought it was just a really good punch out by the defender.

[dmac_bolt]

The Vikings are 3-2 and are hardly a juggernaut. Their rookie QB has been a disaster and got hurt and may or may not replace Wentz as their QB when he returns. They have the same day of rest, two days of practice and on top of that have to travel to LA after playing the Eagles. I am confused on what big advantage they have or why this would be a lock loss.

Their starter sucks, really sucks. I pray he’s starting again. Wentz sucks too, so … this Viking advantage notion makes zero sense.

Joe can go when - this week?

[Boltjolt]

McCarthy isn't good if they do have him. He's got a season rating of 67, 2 TDs vs 3 INTs. he's horrible and I would hope we play him.

Not worried about McCarthy or Wentz but I am concerned about our defense
