<br />
== Mailbag Questions ==<br />
* Josh Wells - What type of game do you foresee PFF's Undisputed #1 Passer Kirk Cousins having against a Packers' secondary that has been relatively stout?<br />
* Steezo - How could Mike Zimmer optimally use Bynum with Harrison back active this weekend?<br />
* Corey Ruegg - Just about everyone here is fed up with Rodgers, what should the Vikings do this week to further encourage this? Also, how will that backfire and Rodgers ends up staying with the team 4 more years<br />
* Chris - Is Rodgers the patron saint of the passive-aggressive corner?<br />
* Kyle Slaybee - What separates a QB like Rodgers from Cousins is an intrinsic aggressiveness and confidence. I believe the lack of that same trait is what stops Kirk from also being a conspiracy nut too. If we convince Kirk to jump aboard the NFT train will this snowball into Top QB play?<br />
* Christopher Wiley - Which QB is more unlikeable to their own fanbase, Rodgers or Cousins? Follow up question: how do we handicap to prop bet of which QB will say something stupid next?<br />
* Bishop Sycamore Alumnist - So I hear the Vikings have a higher DVOA than the Packers. Well I am currently in deep last of one of the NC FF leagues but the 6th-ish in scoring. Does this make me the 2021 Vikings of NC fantasy?<br />
* Nolan Kehler - Question for North Code: how can Arif claim to be a CFL expert and not correct a guest when he says the word "Regina" wrong? J'accuse!<br />
* Andrew Schad - In honor of Crypto .com arena, where does MOA Field at the Metrodome now rank on the list of worst naming rights deals?<br />
* Doug Nasby - If you think about it, the NFL is an entertainment business. Do some teams (e.g. the Jets, Texans, Jaguars) exist solely to provide entertainment outside of regularly schedule games?<br />
* Legend of Cora - At what point do I stop this vicious cycle of passing down heart break and pain, and convince my kids to cheer for another team. jk only kind of.<br />
* Nick Olson - have you ever genuinely tried to move an inanimate object with just your mind<br />
* Jacob Wander - For James's Ham corner, would you rather see a Ham Option as: 1-A play in which CJ Ham is the quarterback and executes an RPO 2-An alternative to turkey at thanksgiving dinner. Also James's Ham Corner sounds like a euphemism for something disgusting<br />
* Ryan Mensenn - This morning a fantastic beat reporter who covers the Vikings for The Athletic (Chad Graff, to be specific) brought up an interesting fact that PFF absolutely loves Cousins (#2 QB) whereas advanced stats have him as only slightly above average. Any thoughts or comments on why this discrepancy exists? For James' Grilling Corner: With the weather starting to get a bit brisk my neighbor put their grill away which surprised me since I keep mine out and continue to use it periodically over the winter. Should one use their grill over the winter?<br />
* Ricardo - Why is there not more public outcry or least larger, bolder print being used to point out the absurdity of a multi-million dollar business soliciting donations for its business expenditures?<br />
