Editing Episode 240 (section)

== Mailbag Questions ==
* Kyle Slaybee - You have to choose one teams starting offensive line from tomorrow night to be your line the rest of the season (Elflein wont come back) who you got?
* @DonFromOhio is hired on to the Athletic as a Kyle Sloter beat reporter. How does Arif react to his new coworker? Do you let him stay at your place when he comes up for the games with a press pass?
* Matt - With the Vikings playing the Seahawks in the regular season, are you okay with super vanilla offense and defense this week even if it looks "bad?" Or would you rather they do some things to look "good" on offense and defense?
* Luke Braun - Who has the most to lose by just cratering on Friday? Most to gain with the game of their life?
* AP - With all the O-line "challenges" why are we not hearing more about colby gossett
* Logan - Is it possible that Vikings trade cousins to Jets for Bridgewater?
* Alex Golden - Which players on the bubble are you looking to make an impact tonight? And also, do you think we will get a glimpse of how Zim plans on using Iloka in his defense? If so, what's his role?
* ZenCupid - How is Matt Kalil simultaneously in the best shape of his life while dealing with lingering injuries?
* Alex Goble - How important is Duane Brown to Seattle in terms of wins/losses? What is their OL depth situation, and do we really have any right to laugh at it here in MN?
* Paul Hegstad - Will AP rush for 2,000 yards for the @Redskins this year?
* Bryan Jellerson - Also, watching the coverage of AP in Washington, is it just me or does he look like 30lbs lighter? I almost think Latavius is bigger now
* My Dad and I have been flying up from VA for games since the U.S. Bank opened, but we usually go to the same 3 restaurants (City Works, Hell's Kitchen, and Hopcat). Any suggestions for new places from a couple locals?
* Minnesota North Star - What kind of pre-cuts trades might the #Vikings consider making to bolster OL and LB depth if they are inclined to do that (considering they are in the bottom four of the waiver wire)? What names might be realistic targets? Who or what (players or picks) may we give up?
* Adam West - O/U 3.5 weeks before "The Season of Optimism" ends and we are back to normal?
* Kenneth Allen - Is it statistically worth it to play important players (e.g. Hughes, PP) at returns? It seems like such a huge injury risk for a key player.
* Peter TEGG-land - how worried should we be that Kirk Cousins is not as good at escaping pressure (or rather, as good at escaping it) as Case Keenum was? I'm very worried. And it seems to me that Case would've been a better bet with our current offensive line than Kirk, even though Cousins is clearly the more talented quarterback overall.
* Can we please hear more stories of how Arif has escaped death while remaining cool, calm, and collected?
