I'd go with Keenum because if the Vikings lose then Foles wont play.
Foles is playing either way

Yeah, something others have left out when saying he's thinkig about sitting starters, and something I just read this morning, is Pederson said he wants Foles to get more reps, and he doesn't even sound like he plans to sit anyone this week:

quote:

"I've begun thinking, but my focus is winning the game on Monday night, because that to me is the most important thing," he said. "Once we get to next week, we'll figure out next week. But my mindset this week is all about the Oakland Raiders, Monday Night Football, and if we win that one. And like I've said pretty much these last few weeks, we control our destiny right now. So that's the focus for me."

Still, it sounds like Pederson is leaning toward resting players, if given the opportunity.

"You just make the best decisions for your football team and if that means resting a guy, you rest a guy, or two or three," he said. "But you also have to maintain the edge with these players, and you've got to maintain that confidence and that dominating swagger and you've got to keep that alive.

quote:

"You want Nick to play as much as you can and get as many reps as you can and let him play and continue to work through some things and work the rapport with the offense and all of that," Pederson said.

Though at the same time, Pederson also believed that getting third quarterback turned backup Nate Sudfeld some reps would also be beneficial.

"Ideally, yeah, you'd like to get him some time and some reps here in the next couple of ballgames," he said.
