<br />
== Segments ==<br />

; Game Recap : PFF grades in coverage analysis<br />
; Former Vikings QBs : Recap of past quarterbacks<br />
; Mailbag : Extensive listener questions covering multiple topics<br />
<br />
== Mailbag Questions ==<br />
* Brett - Why was there so many passes tipped at the line?<br />
* Blake Murphy - Can we trade for your OC?<br />
* Luke Braun - Is Brian O'Neill, like, *good* good or just good for a rookie? Feels like he's playing well but we all still have this feeling that he's due to crater like everyone thought pre-draft<br />
* Pocket9z - Do the Vikings rework Thielen's contract for next year?<br />
* Ian - YEAH, JON FROM ST. CLOUD HERE, WHY DOES ARIF CONSTANTLY HATE ON BEN GEDEON WHEN HE CONSISTENTLY PUTS UP GREAT PFF NUMBERS, I DON'T MEAN TO COMPARE BUT HE'S OBVIOUSLY THE NEXT DERRICK BROOKS. THANKS I'LL HANG UP AND LISTEN<br />
* Cain - when adam thielen gets an extension in the offseason how much can his current contract carryover like diggs' does to keep the cap hit down over the next year or two?<br />
* Bryan Bjorgan - Where did the Run Blocking come from? For real, how were we all of a sudden able to produce the size of holes we did? Especially considering we couldn't move a thing in weeks 1-5.<br />
* Damian Barrett - Every show, James mentions his "then girlfriend" at least 7 times. Is this the same person or are they generally different girls? Can this be attributed to a Trubisky-esque inability to swipe left on dating apps?<br />
* Seth Martin - Curious for your take on these ACL injuries; is this a function of playing on turf, or is the 27 yard line at the bank simply cursed?<br />
* Bryan Jellerson - Is Kirk bad at home? I feel like his best games so far have been on the road. Is it still too early to tell?<br />
* Estaban - Is it okay to still like Kirk Cousins after that TD celebration?<br />
* Per - Is the improvement in the running game sustainable going forward?<br />
<br />
== Key Bits & Lore ==<br />
The mailbag includes a question about James' relationships, referencing his frequent mentions of his "then girlfriend" and comparing his dating habits to Mitchell Trubisky's inability to swipe left on dating apps.<br />
