Purple Insider is presented by Oakley, Express Yourself, build a look that's made for you.

When you wear Oakley, there really is more than meets the eye. Try it for yourself.

Oakley is not only the best looking but the best quality.

So head on over to Oakley.com for more information today. Oh, Hey everybody welcome to another hot routes episode of Purple Insider here, Matthew Collar and Jonathan Harrison.

And we've got a lot to discuss with the Vikings and a situation worth monitoring in Buffalo.

We'll get to all that and also want to take a stats focus

based on our sponsor Oakley of course later in the show on some past Russia

numbers that have stuck out to me. But I wanted to tell you in regards to

the Oakley sunglasses that I am once again wearing for the show, Jonathan, I was out, OTA, I'm sorry, mandatory mini camp, as always. So I'm out there and I'm looking around and watching what's going on, everything else and Brian O'Neill walks by me. And I look at Brian O'Neill and I think something looks very familiar about

Brian O'Neill, not the fact that I know him and covered him for a long time or whatever. And I'm like, what is it? What's going on? What is it that I'm noticing about Brian O'Neill?

He's wearing these sunglasses, the exact same shades, and I thought that's right. I wear the same shades as Vikings players out at well at least him at many

camp because he is not working out though he is expected to be back working out with the team at training

camp so there you go purple insider and working out with the team at training camp.

So there you go, purple insider and Minnesota Vikings players

who make $100 million.

Same, exact same.

So when do we get, when do we get the Matthew Collar and Brian O'Neill podcast where you're both just wearing the shades looking at each other and people can't tell who is who?

You know, Brian is a guy to have on the show. I haven't requested many players over the summers. Sometimes we get players on kind of during training camp is usually a good time. I think the summer is. It's weird because we're out there like one time a week and they're really not in the mode. I mean they talk to the media in general but not in the same mode as training camp where you're really building up to the season. But that's a guy that I would love to have on the show he is one of the best talkers I think he's really good at explaining football

last year I did an article on Brian O'Neill about how he's so good at getting beat but not giving up a sack.

Like not that he's getting beat a lot, but when everyone gets beat.

So what you do when you get beat as an offensive linemen can make the difference between hit or miss and I had a good conversation with him and a few other offensive linemen about that. And of course you can make your jokes of like the Vikings line is beat every time. that's

be beat every time like but not Brian O'Neill that's for sure and his recovery ability is really incredible
