For an explanation of the NFL's new penalty rules, we brought in Ben Austro of @FootballZebras to walk through the thought process for the referee, if it will be called as-is during the regular season, and how many years Andrew Sendejo will be suspended. Plus Pro Football Focus' Mike Renner (@PFF_Mike) swings in to chat about the Minnesota Fightin' Vikings and if the number one defense in the NFL is sustainable or if the Purple is due for a regression in 2018.

The Minnesota Fightin' Vikings dueled the low energy Jacksonville Jaguars Saturday in a sloppy, flag-filled afternoon at Historic US Bank Stadium. Thank goodness it's over. Here are some takeaways besides Antwione Williams should have a sack in the statbook.

Round two of the preseason is about to kickoff as the Minnesota Fightin' Vikings welcome in the Jacksonville Jaguars into Historic US Bank Stadium on Saturday. For the latest Purple headlines, we brought in our guy Darren "Doogie" Wolfson (@DWolfsonKSTP) of The Scoop Podcast. Plus Scout of the Show Jordan Reid (@JReidNFL) of Inside The Pylon dives in with some preseason roster takes.

Friend of The Program Dr. Eric Eager (@PFF_EricEager) of Pro Football Focus hops on to chat about the Minnesota Fightin' Vikings offensive line and why the modern NFL defense is built around cornerbacks first. Plus Andrew Roth (@sandrewroth) and Josh Pelto (@JoshPelto) for some Vikes Over Beers, chatting about the Vikings-Jaguars joint practices and fringe roster guys they're rooting for.

Preseason keeps rolling along for the Minnesota Fightin' Vikings as they begin joint practices with the Jacksonville Jaguars today ahead of the home preseason opener Saturday at Historic US Bank Stadium. We caught up with Drew Mahowald (@DrewMahowald) of Vikings Territory to chat about training camp so far, who were the studs of the first preseason game, and surprise names that will be cut and end up making the final 53 man roster.
