It took one series for the Steelers to key in on Waynes. Going to be a long season for him unless he gets ahead of the curve.

Well, that's why they picked up Newman, right? Hopefully the Vikes won't be relying too much on #26.

(ETA: Okay, they picked up Newman before the draft—still.)

Yeah he's had a few but that was an awful call. No way is that pass interference. Even the ref right in front of him said it was incomplete

I'm not going to look into it too much. How would you be if it was your first ever NFL game as a rookie. I would have 3 pounds of crap in my pants. Either way, that was a horrible call by that ref. They were simply hand checking and the ref right there said it was incomplete and he easily had the best view

Wayne's is getting welcomed to the NFL. Hunter is looking pretty good...couple tackles.

I thought he had good coverage on the PI play. Much too early to be worried. If he's leaving guys wide open this time next year, then ill be worried.
