Summary

Following another tight loss to the Baltimore Ravens, Adam Thielen said that the Vikings have 'the guys' to be winning some of these close games. Matthew Coller and ESPN's Courtney Cronin debate whether that's actually true. Matthew digs up an interview from a former Cousins coach that raises an eyebrow about not getting the ball to Thielen and Justin Jefferson and Courtney breaks down some of the puzzling play calling and execution that has led to the offense going ice cold. Plus Courtney picks whether the Vikings will go 2-0, 1-1 or 0-2 in the next two games against the Los Angeles Chargers and Green Bay Packers. Learn more about your ad choices.
