It will be interesting to see how he does with a big line in front of him. Unfortunately our run game blocking was not particularly stellar in his stay here. Probably still Fickell's biggest issue.
"The preseason battle for the Vikings' third tailback job is heating up between a pair of undrafted rookies. Bruising back Mike Boone showed off Saturday. The Cincinnati product ran with bombastic power, good speed to the edge and violent finishes. He finished with 91 rushing yards on 13 carries (7.0 average) and a TD, looking like an early-career Chris Ivory."
This is an overdue post but MIke Boone won the NFC special teams players of the week last Sunday for destroying a punt return man and forcing a fumble.
Mike Boone was in for some of the Vikings' goal line situations in yesterday's loss at New Orleans and scored a TD, beating a DB to the left pylon in the first half..
5 carries for 11 yds yesterday and a reception for 13 yds for Mike. Doesn't appear Denver was attempting to run much or can't. None of the backs where getting anywhere. Boone also had a Kick Return for 27.
