<br />
== Mailbag Questions ==<br />
* Brian Jones (email) — Do you have a sensible way to grade the work of GMs? I don't follow other teams nearly as closely, so I feel like I'm lacking context to judge Spielman, and my feelings are all over the place. I think of fifth rounder Diggs and undrafted Thielen, and then I think of first rounders Treadwell and Waynes and then I recall the Willie Beavers experience and I'm flummoxed. Help me be tough but fair.<br />
* John Belk (email) — Haven't heard much about Danielle Hunter, how's he been doing? Which does Arif hate more, Rodgers winning the super bowl in MN or reigning MVP Carson Wentz winning the super bowl in MN?<br />
* Phil (twitter) — How'd you guys feel at the half? I was genuinely worried about that performance.<br />
* Joe Jestus (twitter) — How does Arif feel about getting his "Vikings win but Remmers is injured" prediction correct?<br />
* HVAC Repairman (twitter) — Why does a 17 point win feel so bad<br />
* Jacob Kost — What's a top tier name for an American football team based in London? Monarchs? Knights? Imperials?<br />
* Ashton (twitter) — How does Keenum manage to make me feel like he is terrible and great at the same time?<br />
* Kenneth Allen (twitter) — What do you think the team will be focusing on in the bye week (besides rest)? Any change in play or focus?<br />
