Introduction: Host Michael Rand wonders how the frustration expressed in two losses Sunday — one by the Vikings, one by the Lynx — will carry over into big moments this week. Vikings QB Kirk Cousins was visibly upset after an interception keyed a 20-17 loss to Tampa Bay. How does that play into a tough game Thursday at Philadelphia? Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve ripped her team after a loss to Indiana gave Minnesota a lower playoff seed and tougher matchup Wednesday against Indiana. You'll hear from Reeve, Cousins and Vikings offensive coordinator Wes Phillips.
