Solid game and was looking very good and strong. Bummer about the big hit he took / concussion.

Maybe it's Vrabel, as an ex-player, doing Henry a solid knowing he will be elsewhere and saving him some wear and tear in a lost season for the team.

Really don’t get it. Even if they are down a TD or two and the line isn’t great, historically I thought Vrabel loved to keep feeding Henry, and by carry 15-18 the defense is beaten up and he starts breaking chunk plays? Or has he just lost a few steps and finally hit the cliff?

Did Akers drop back to pass in the 2nd quarter Mattison TD drive? Play by play den Stats are showing he got sacked for 7 yard loss - eg not a 7 yard rushing loss (Unrelated to his injury, but wondering exactly what happened here for potential stat correction reasons)

Another week or two probably not a bad idea to wait. it’s not just the health but the playing in / understanding of a new offense. Let’s not forget he hasn’t had the history of being the most studious!

Hm, quotes from him indicate it wasn't just rest - had an issue with a different part of the same hamstring. But insisted he is playing. Definitely not great given his tendency to go down in games.

Was it lack of use or did MIN really shift to try to bracket him?

that last hit on Mattison didn’t look good. Concussion?

Not that it matters, but I think he actually did come down with that catch on the sideline and should have been challenged as it looks like he got his feet down. Just a little solace, to go along with all the other "near-misses" from earlier this season. Sigh.

Maybe I missed but has there been any reports on who is getting the starter reps in practice? Why is this a mystery?

Ugly.

I don't know why Vrabel doesn't just ride him, as in year's past. Unless he's saving it for the colder months? Despite the inefficiency so far, no secret that the more carries he gets, the better he gets. I know they were up against the clock but not having him in that last drive last week vs...

If I am reading the game logs right, Mason has 1 career reception? Is it that a lot of his past work has been mop up duty / running out the clock in blow outs?

Overall well played half but same old story, 10-3, should be 20-3. Sigh.
