The Minnesota Vikings are 1-0 with Shaun Hill playing mistake-free in his first start since 2014. Now the Vikings must decide if they stick with the 36-year-old veteran or the man they traded for after Teddy Bridgewater’s season-ending injury.

Shaun Hill threw for 236 yards Sunday, but the Vikings needed their defense to force three turnovers, two returned for touchdowns, to beat the Tennessee Titans 2 5-16 in their season opener.

Zimmer said Hill did a good job, and Sam Bradford has been studying up as well.

“We always huddle and decide what to do,” Zimmer said of who starts their home opener against Green Bay. “There are so many other things we have to fix right now. I can’t wait to get with the coaches.”

The Titans have issues too after blowing a 10-point lead by giving up 25 straight points.

“The turnovers were catastrophic,” Titans coach Mike Mularkey said of his first game since the interim tag was removed in January. “I’ve never had a game where you have one turnover, but two for scores.”

Adrian Peterson

The NFL rushing leader last season started off the season just as he did a year ago by running for just 31 yards. But stopping the 2012 MVP was the biggest goal of the Tennessee defense, and the Titans swarmed him early and often. Peterson carried 19 times and couldn’t catch the two passes thrown at him. “I’m just thankful that we were able to get the points that we were able to get offensively, and the defense came through for us and made some big plays,” Peterson said. “They pretty much bailed us out.”

Hill’s day

Hill only threw seven passes in three appearances last season for Minnesota, and he completed only two. Against Tennessee, Hill was 18 of 33 for 236 yards passing with Stefon Diggs catching seven passes for 103 yards. He helped the Vikings pick up 12 of their 15 first downs through the air, often finding Diggs, tight end Kyle Rudolph or Adam Thielen to keep drives alive.
