We think you'll like our latest guest...For the first time, Patrick Peterson welcomes on a new teammate of his, as we went straight to the top of the Vikings' depth chart for a fantastic chat with quarterback Kirk Cousins (38:00). Before Captain Kirk, our hosts chop it up on Pat's farewell letter to Arizona that recently appeared in The Players Tribune (1:30). A month after making the decision to join a new team, he's fully ready to reflect on his decade in the desert. P2 also opens up about one of the lows he experienced while with the Cardinals, which was finding out he was a diabetic (4:30). 'Has Pat Heard!?' follows as we tap into some sports ownership news, Alex Smith's retirement and the new NCAA transfer rule (13:00). Who are the guys funniest teammates ever? '21 Questions' has the answers (28:00). Next, it's time to get familiar with Kirk Cousins (38:00). Kirk shares his excitement over Pat P heading North and braces him for what to expect in the Minnesota winters. Cousins is no stranger to viral moments and we cover a bunch of them, starting with him hitting the Griddy (popularized by Justin Jefferson) in Week 17. The Michigan native shares more on his journey from 2-star recruit to 2-time Pro Bowler about to enter his 10th season in the NFL. He also details some of his experiences at Michigan State, which included a 4-0 record vs. the Wolverines and being teammates with 2 future NFL QBs, Nick Foles and Brian Hoyer. Kirk takes us back in time to the 2012 NFL Draft and the emotions of being the 8th quarterback selected. You better believe he remembers each player taken ahead of him at his position. "You Like That!?" is a clip that will never be forgotten, as Cousins discusses the origin stories of that moment. Listen to hear about what it was like playing on the franchise tag, why the split from Washington happened and how he ended up in Minny. The guys chop it up about last season for the Vikings and take a look ahead to 2021 and dethroning the Packers in the division.
