Jonathan Greenard checked in with 29% of the vote, ok for second place, whereas Van Ginkel dropped to 3rd with 24%. As lots of people famous, the one two video games the Vikings have misplaced this yr got here with Blake Cashman on the sideline, so there is likely to be some advantage to this. Actually, although, it’s laborious to go flawed with any of these gamers being the choice.

These are two groups stepping into reverse instructions, so the quantity is sensible. Nonetheless, we all know that divisional video games may be bizarre typically.
