Summary

Matthew Coller and Brian Murphy talk about the Minnesota Vikings' ugly win over the Detroit Lions and how much it matters that the Lions gave away the game as much as the Vikings won it. How will they get the ball to Justin Jefferson going forward? What did we make of the way the team reacted to Kevin O'Connell at the end? Why is the NFC so bad and what does that mean to the Vikings' chances to make the playoffs despite a meh start to the season. -- For more of Matthew's Vikings coverage, head to purpleinsider.substack.com For bonus discussions, interview clips, and more videos, check out our YouTube channel!
