| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Fantasy Throw Down Podcast, bringing you the latest from the world of sports, |
| 0:08.0 | DFS and gambling. With over five years of hot takes and millions of downloads later, I guess he's been doing something right. |
| 0:18.0 | Now, sit back and listen to one of the sharpest minds in the game. |
| 0:23.0 | Here's your host, Duane Calendar. |
| 0:30.0 | Hello, welcome to the show folks. |
| 0:32.0 | We have Thursday Night Football on tap and we have the Vikings, so you know what that means. |
| 0:38.0 | It's prime time Kirk Cousins in the mix. |
| 0:42.0 | You know, for those who don't know and are uninitiated, |
| 0:48.9 | Kirk Cousins currently has the worst primetime record of any QB of all time. |

| 1:46.6 | I mean absolutely blasted out of Monday Night Football. This was not pretty for the Vikings and that was like the |
| 1:58.4 | coming out party for the Eagles if you will. So stylistically this matchup does not look great for the Vikings |
| 2:06.3 | but the Philly defense does have a number of injuries in their secondary and |
| 2:10.7 | line-backing corps. So this is actually a better spot for them |
| 2:16.4 | that it was last year. |
| 2:18.6 | Does that even remotely mean we consider the Vikings. |
| 2:31.0 | Eh, it depends on what you're looking to do, because the line is 7.5 for Philly. The hook actually makes it somewhat appealing for the Vikings. |
