'''Norse Code Episode 276: Good Teammates''' aired in 2019 during the NFL offseason.<br />
<br />
== Overview ==<br />
The hosts discuss the Eric Kendricks contract restructure to create cap space for rookie Garrett Bradbury, analyze the team's salary cap situation, and address various roster questions. The episode features an extensive mailbag covering topics from analytics usage to potential roster moves.<br />
<br />
== Segments ==<br />
; Opening : Eric Kendricks restructure and salary cap implications<br />
; Roster Moves : Kyle Rudolph trade discussions and Aldrick Robinson signing with Carolina<br />
; Line Configuration : Discussion of offensive line setup<br />
; Mailbag : Extensive listener questions on team building, analytics, and hypothetical scenarios<br />
<br />
== Mailbag Questions ==<br />
* Luke Braun - Would you rather spend little on a position group (conceding it entirely but saving resources) or spend a lot on a position group that always plateaus at average?<br />
* Beff - How deep are the Vikings into analytics? Does drafting CB higher than D-line tell us anything apart from having a great D-line coach?<br />
* Josh - Did we just draft a fullback in the 2nd round? (regarding Irv Smith's description as "short, husky, moderately fast, can't run routes")<br />
* Andrew Sherman - When will we know if Kyle Rudolph won't be traded and we can settle in to see the Rudolph/Smith tight end duo?<br />
* Josh Swedlund - If Kirk Cousins suffered a season-ending injury in training camp, how would the Vikings approach the QB situation?<br />
* John Belk - Could defensive coaching ever move towards playing the pass as first priority, making "establishing the run to open up play action" actually effective?<br />
* Hunter - What cap wizardry is likely outside of trading/cutting players with high salaries but low guarantees?<br />
* Logan - Has Arif used data metrics to determine when he's most likely to get into Twitter feuds?<br />
* Matthew Nelson - If the Wilfs hired someone who decided to rebuild the roster like Gruden in Tampa Bay, how long before the cap issues are resolved?<br />
* Alex K - Is it worth dropping Rudolph and another player to sign Ndamukong Suh?<br />
* Zencupid - At what point would cutting Treadwell be worth the dead cap hit?<br />
* Corey Ruegg - Which NFL organization position would you want regardless of salary?<br />
* Kyle Segall - Why are you and James salty about having bad MCU takes?<br />
* Kenneth Allen - What disappointed you most about the Game of Thrones final season?<br />
<br />
== Key Bits & Lore ==<br />
Don From Ohio appears with multiple questions addressing different co-hosts, asking about Vikings WR3 candidates, Memorial Day vs 4th of July grilling differences, Steve Rogers and Marvel timeline issues, and post-Game of Thrones TV series recommendations.<br />
