Shaun Hill Mistake-Free in Season Opener, Next Week in Question
Did we expect Shaun Hill to be Peyton-like Week 1? Definitely not. But the Vikings' initial backup quarterback impressed on Sunday with his ability to protect the football and his decent efficiency. Hill finished the day completing only 18 passes on 33 attempts, but managed to accumulate a surprising 236 yards in the air. He also added eight yards on two rushing attempts. Hill's fantasy value remains the same and still isn't a viable option, but what's important to note and keep an eye on, especially fantasy owners of Russell Wilson, is if he starts next week against the Green Bay Packers. It would surprise me if Sam Bradford doesn't take over the starting job. The continuous quarterback question in Minnesota will be updated later in the week.
