<h3>Q: Will Vikings-Cardinals be flexed into Monday Night Football in two weeks?</h3>

Ben Goessling wrote, “The Vikings’ Dec. 1 game against the Cardinals could be a candidate to move to Monday night as part of the NFL’s flexible scheduling process. The league has flexible scheduling rights for Monday night games after Week 12, and it seems plausible the Browns-Broncos game, a matchup of middling teams currently scheduled for Dec. 2, could be moved to Sunday.”
Give us Falcons-Chargers as the MNF flex prediction.

<p><strong>Answer:</strong> No. </p>
<p>Chicago desperately needs a win right now, Minnesota does not, and the Vikings never plays particularly well at Soldier Field.</p>
<p>Minnesota hasn’t lost at Soldier Field in five years, and it’s probably due to drop one. We don’t believe the Bears are a gangbusters team, but Sunday feels like a game when they’ll show up and attempt to salvage a bizarre season.</p>
<p>We’ll say the Bears by three. Unfortunately.</p>

<p><span><strong>Answer:</strong></span> Easy — his teammates are playing too well. </p>
<p>Jonathan Greenard ranks near the top of the NFL in quarterback pressures. Andrew Van Ginkel had 2 sacks and 3 tackles for loss on Sunday at the Titans. </p>
<p>Greenard and Van Ginkel cannot be benched. It would be malpractice. </p>
<p>Then, Turner’s main “competition” for snaps, Patrick Jones II, had 2 sacks and 3 tackles for loss like Van Ginkel. We will reiterate: this is a <em>very</em> good problem. Minnesota has too many productive EDGE rushers. Turner’s time will come.</p>
<p>The guy is 21. </p>
