Summary

Matthew Coller opens the show with an update on the Vikings' injury situation with Adam Thielen and CJ Ham and then talks about how COVID will keep Andre Patterson out of Sunday's game. Then Pro Football Focus's Steve Palazzolo joins to talk about the state of quarterback play in the NFL and why it has been mostly poor this season and whether we're seeing a transition from the all-time great QBs to the next wave. Steve thinks the Vikings should keep leaning into Kirk Cousins but it's unclear what their future is at QB. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
