and Hello welcome into the post-game Vikings Broncos pre-season podcast and I am in the dark

literally in the dark, literally in the dark,

because midway through the game, my power went out.

And I mean, of course, a lot of people

had great responses like, you saved yourself from having to watch the second half of that game.

But I feel that between myself and Paul Hodawannock, W. C. C.O. Radio who is here,

that we can meld together also with the help of a lot of friendly tweeters who gave me all sorts of updates of what happened from the second half of the game that we can come together to combine to talk about this glorious third and final

preseason game and then never have to speak of the preseason again.

So I also want to say thank you to the iPhone hotspot that is making

this happen and my diligence of generally keeping my laptop at full charge. This

is allowing us to have an actual podcast here because I still do not have any energy at all and my diet Dr peppers are now warm.

So that's really going to hurt my takes. Paul, how are you? I'm

good. I'm soaking in the power over here, feeling lucky to have watched that

preseason game. You missed so much. I mean, I really feel bad that you weren't able to witness the

punt off that wasn't a punt off but Ryan Wright still seemed to think it was a

punt off because he was booting them Greg Joseph 58 yard field goal I mean special teams

galore Matt just just I'm I hate that you had to miss it okay did anybody

mention the altitude I feel like the altitude needed to be brought up but yeah I mean it is

notable that Ryan Wright kicked the ever lucky loving heck out of the football in his first chance to be the real punter man because I got a bunch of questions from people asking like is this really a good decision because you know you had missed a couple of field goals with Ryan Wright holding and my answer was I have no idea I have no idea if Ryan Wright is a good holder or not or if Jordan Berry was a good holder or not and I guess Greg Joseph would have told the team if he was really

Apprehensive about having Ryan Wright Holden but I guess the Vikings now have the premier young punter in the NFL.

There was a study and I am not messing with you here that if every kick went out of the

back of the end zone, if they punted a touchback every single time it would actually be better than general punting
