Mailbag Questions
[edit]- Luke Braun's Dad - Let's say Dobbs is a Hyundai. Did the Vikings basically steal him from the cardinals?
- Numerophile - Much is being made of Dobbs being a rocket scientist, and it's absolutely cool, but do you think him being smart actually improves his ability to pick up a new offense quickly?
- Zach Wilson - How much does it actually affect an opponent when they have no tape on their opposing quarterback? Seems like it historically affects the Vikings a lot, but that also just seems like it might be a Vikings thing. Yours truly, Zach Wilson
- Kevin - How would you evaluate the younger players on our defense so far?
- Evan Creed - For this week against Heinicke, does Hunter need to change his 'Kick Down the Door' sack celebration to 'Call a Locksmith and Patiently Wait' celebration?
- A Hyundai for one of us - Will this Kirktober be the one that forever lives in infamy? Was it possible that kirktober could have lasted 3 months?
- Pessimistic MN Sports Fan - Realistically what is the market for cousins next year? Is there anyone who will give a 35 year old coming off a torn Achilles starter money and any sort of term? Is there a scenario where he signs a shorter deal with the Vikings at a cheaper rate to rehab and come back to a familiar offense to try to show the league he can still play?
- Nolan Kehler - For North Code: how long will it take the Vikings to regret not acquiring BC Lions standout Nathan Rourke when we dealt Ezra Cleveland?
- The Real Jak - For Arif's Magic (the Gathering) corner, given that we've established Cousins/KOC as running blue/white, how is it possible that they didn't have a counterspell ready in the event of a catastrophe like a blown Achilles? Was he just mana tapped that late into the 4th Q? Troubling
- Logan Bolsharif - Question for James' & Arif's Halloween corner: what previous or former bosses would be most likely to fire you if you dressed as them for Halloween & what would that outfit look like?
