RB Jordan Mason, MIN (5 Viewers)

They basically had to abandon the run in the 2nd quarter last night due to the score. Hard to make long term judgements based on that game.

Agree that game script worked against the whole run game last night but it’s not like Mason has been lighting it up, whether it’s him, the OL, the whole offense ecosystem, or some combination of the above.

He had a window when Jones was out and that window has shut. He’ll need positive game scripts to have future value and those man not be easy to come by as JJM finds his way.

I was high on Mason coming into the year and thought he was in for a big season. But between bad QB play, game script, OL injuries….just doesn’t seem to happening for him this year. Now add Aaron Jones and you have essentially a roster clogger unless the Vike’s dramatically turn it around somehow.

Love staring at a 1 in my lineup all weekend

In PPR it was 1.6, so we can round it up to 2.

Line is a shambles. Zero holes for anyone

Sigh, and I fell for it. I could have traded him right before the game and believed even with AJ being back, he still would have the most important (GL) role.

He may still have that, considering Minny never got to the GL and may never get there again lol.

He’ll still have some GL opps but the main issue is that this offense is a far cry from what it’s been the last few years. Not unlike what’s happening in Philly to a lesser degree.

The Vikings gave their rbs 9 carries total. This had nothing to do with AJ and entirely on Vikings horrendous offense and game script.
