Starting off this show, we’ll chat about the Tuesday injury report and the long list of names therein. Then I’ll introduce the listeners to the Kirk Cousins Chaos Meter. I want to explain the problems on defense, and how “he’s new and learning” manifests in real life. Plus- how about these rookies? They just might be enough to propel the franchise out of the throes of mediocrity.

The Vikings got punched in the mouth and never got up. Now at 6-8, we get a clear look at the problems that caused the Vikings’ season to go all but belly-up. The O-line, the run defense, and a little bit of Kirk Cousins.

After chatting about the injury report for a bit, we'll talk about the offensive line. The Vikings have some huge issues, both with Akiem Hicks and the general concept of stunts. Cameron Lee, former Bear, opponent of Akiem Hicks and journeyman offensive guard, tells us some of the basics about what's going on. I learned a ton about offensive line play in this conversation and I'm thrilled to share it with you.

On this show, we'll talk about the Vikings' strange kicker transactions and what that means about their plans with Dan Bailey. Then, we'll talk about what led to all the pressure, and what the Vikings need to fix to prevent that from happening again. Finally, the Vikings have had some major operational issues, and at some point, they need to learn how to get a play from the sideline to the line of scrimmage. It's astounding how bad they are at that.

The Vikings drop a deeply frustrating game that puts a devastating hole in the hull of their playoff hopes. We'll pick up the pieces, from Dan Bailey's 0-4 kicking day to the officiating issues to the deceptively successful run game. Let's dive into the disaster.

The Thursday injury report had a little good news, plus a new signing and Eric Kendricks getting Walter Payton Man Of The Year consideration. Then, we'll talk about Tom Brady's arm and how the Giants and Saints exploited it. Plus, Todd Bowles has an aggressive defense, and if they keep their wits about them, they can punish that tendency. Finally, your boldest predictions!

On this week's Crossover Thursday, we talk to David Harrison of Locked On Bucs. We're starting with the bleak Wednesday injury report, and a little talk about uniform choices. Most of the show is the chat with David Harrison about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Is Tom Brady too old to play QB? What about his relationship with Bruce Arians? Why isn't Tampa Bay shredding everyone with all those weapons? We'll get to know Tampa, the first real contending team the Vikings play in several weeks.
