| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody, welcome in to the Minnesota Vikings postgame show here on Purple Insider, presented by Fandul, where we will spend some time breaking down a game that looked a lot different than if you just looked at the box score. |
| 0:23.4 | If you just opened up the box score, let's say that you had things to do this morning. |
| 0:27.9 | You come back, you're like, well, let's see what happened. |
| 0:30.1 | And you go, whoa, Carson Wentz went crazy. |
