You are locked on the NFL, your daily NFL podcast, part of the Locked On podcast network,

your team every day.

Well, hello, I am Matt Williamson.

This is the Locked on NFL podcast.

I hope all of you are having a wonderful Friday or weekend whenever you are reading this, or listening to this, not reading to this. Come on, Williamson. Get your head out of your butt.

It's been a busy, busy day for me. And I've been kind of waiting to give, take these, you know, the podcast come kind of late in the day for me because I'm going to do as much research as possible. And I kind of look at this Friday podcast as, like the grand finale, you know,

a week's worth of work in accumulating thoughts on these games.

And then finally, boom, let's spit them out with my thoughts against the spread and straight up.

So I go to my bookie, my bookie.orgie.orgie.

And I'll tell you about them here after I discuss a few of

these games. As always, they're a good friend of the show and the whole locked on network.

And let's just kick it off right away. I mean, Arizona is at the Vikings, 10 point spread.

I just wrote an article, and another thing I was just finishing up doing,

is every Friday I kind of write a fantasy-based article based on all the injury news. And by

the end of Friday, you have a pretty good idea who's playing, who's not. Looks like Dow and

Cook is going to play. Arizona allows a lot of long runs. They allow a lot of receptions by the running backs.

Patrick Peterson can only guard either Thielen or Diggs, not both.

But it's still a decent defense.

Cousins has played very well in a Vikings uniform.

But, you know, that Vikings O-line is problematic.

Arizona's O-line is very problematic.

And I have to think that the Vikings front really controls that action in the dome, at home.
