and Hey everybody welcome to another episode of Purple Insider Matthew Collar here and returning to the show once known as the

O-line guy for the show now Trench Warfare is where you can find him on sub stack is doing

one of the coolest projects out there as far as content creation in the football world

analyzing offensive and defensive linemen.

And even, you know, I follow Micah Parsons on Twitter, Brandon.

I saw him tweet out a bunch of stats to prove that whatever case he was making

about defensive player of the year and I see Brandon

Thorne's stats on there for past rushers and I was like hey look at that that's our

guy so what's up man how's it going? Oh, it's going well man. Yeah, that was cool to see for Micah Parsons and yeah, just, you know, I've always said like if I can get players and coaches, you know, especially to appreciate what I do, then, you know, I feel like I'm doing something right and, you know, seeing that and from other people like over the years, you know, it's means a lot and it just it keeps me going you know it's motivating so

absolutely so you're doing the trench warfare thing you do in bleacher report scouting again and now we're going to take a little bit of a

deviation from the main topic here with the Minnesota Vikings which you can

imagine is at the quarterback position but they've got a defensive line to

rebuild and they've got a left guard

position open and I would also say that center and right guard are not exactly

making all pros from year to year so we're're going to kind of break it all down.

And here's how I decided to do it.

I came up with some ideas, and I want you to tell me

if you think that they're good or they're bad.

And some of them connect to what's going to happen

at the quarterback position.

So let's start out just say that Kirk Cousins comes back

and they still have to find ways to rebuild pretty much an entire defensive line outside of Harrison Phillips.
