And the Hey everybody welcome to another episode of purple insider Matthew Collar here and it is time once again for another reggots round table with

Will Regots of Sports Illustrated and Andrew Kramer of the Star Tribune and guess what?

This time we'll use audio.

Sorry about last week, everybody.

But we assume we're good to go this time

and we won't just be muted on camera

for this entire discussion.

Guys, I want to start by saying,

sorry about Thanksgiving.

It was ruined by terrible football.

There's more to go that we'll get to watch on Sunday.

And then we've got Vikings and Bears and now all of the sudden will the Vikings can see the Green Bay Packers nipping at their heels a couple of weeks ago. We would have said,

oh look the Packers they're falling apart it's a bad season

Jordan loves a bus who cares and now like it's only one game the difference between

the Vikings and Packers and if they don't win this game against Chicago

there's gonna be a little bit of heat there. Yeah it's a good place to start I was

watching that game and I was thinking just from an objective standpoint like

what would the Vikings want and what's better and you can kind of make the case both ways where the lions losing gives the Vikings a little bit of life in the

life, if they can just kind of handle some business against some subpar quarterbacks in the next few weeks, they're gonna go into that stretch of two of three against the lions

with a chance where they'll probably have to sweep it to win the division, but crazier things have happened.

But then the Packers winning means, yeah, they're right there, only a game back, I think is a half game back or something?

Well, it's 1.0, but of course the Vikings won the first matchup against the Packers
