Michael Bennett...

What's the word on Bennett when he comes back. I've heard that it will definitely be during Week 5, and the Vikings have a pretty favorable RB schedule for several games. Will Bennett be the main back. What are the expectations for him?

By then, Onterrio will be at home rolling blunts, so I would expect to see Bennett as the feature back with Moe stealing goal line carries... Onterrio has not been overly impressive, IMO, though, so if Bennett does well, he'll probably hold onto that position for the rest of the season, and be spelled by Onterrio once he gets back from his suspension...

I saw an article this morning that he is practicing with the team again. They still dont plan on using him until after the bye (week 4) however.

When he gets back, I fully expect him to be used as the feature back getting the majority of carries plus goalline carries. Moe will more than likely continue to be used very sparingly off the bench - he is not the goalline vulture many people thought he would be. Besides, inside the 5 its all CPepp all the time.

As soon as MIN's Oline starts to gel and establish their superiority, you can expect to see Bennett perform near the top 15 RBs for the rest of the yr.
