Below is a transcript of Mike Florio’s chat in Sunday Night Football Extra for Week 16’s Vikings-Eagles game. You can access his live chat every week here: nbcsports.com/snfextra

9:52
AskSNF: What is your take on the Mcnabb situation? Do you think the Redskins are banking on and Andrew Luck type draft pick?
PFTonSNF: McNabb won’t be back (of course) ... And yes I’d expect the Redskins to take a QB.

9:53
AskSNF: Rosenthal? Can he even reach the keyboard?
PFTonSNF: I have a highchair.

9:54
PFTonSNF: This game is getting really interesting now ... Vikings need to punch this in. May not get inside the ten often.

9:54
AskSNF: Do real men wear makeup?
PFTonSNF: Fair question

9:56
PFTonSNF: What a catch by Sidney Rice and what a decision to throw on the goal line. Gutsy.

9:59
PFTonSNF: Don’t think this will be overturned. You?

10:01
PFTonSNF: I clearly could not do Mike Pereira’s job. Sigh. Vikings were robbed there.

10:04
AskSNF: Why not hand it off to Adrian peterson?
PFTonSNF: Can’t kill the playcall when Rice had two hands on the ball. Only surprised it was overturned because it didn’t seem clear.

10:04
AskSNF: the ball was moving how were they robbed?
PFTonSNF: Perhaps you are right. I didn’t think there was conclusive evidence.

10:05
AskSNF: who will be skins coach next year
PFTonSNF: Really doubt there will be a change from Shanahan after one year.

10:06
AskSNF: How did Aaron Rodgers not make the pro bowl
PFTonSNF: Great question. Deserved it over Brees, probably Ryan.

10:08
PFTonSNF: Meanwhile ... let’s get back to the real surprise of this game. Eagles not doing anything on offense.

10:11
PFTonSNF: Peterson is getting real close to breaking one of these. Eagles rush D has been inconsistent all year.

10:15
PFTonSNF: Eagles offensive line can’t handle the blitz. The Vikings can.

10:16
PFTonSNF: Asante Samuel has had a problem with concussions this year. Bad tackling form.

10:18
AskSNF: Do you think Sean Mcdermot will get any looks for Head Coach?
PFTonSNF: Um ... no.

10:19
PFTonSNF: Joe Webb, ladies and gentlemen! He’s more Michael Vick than Michael Vick tonight.

10:20
AskSNF: what’s going on with the Eagles?
PFTonSNF: Got the Vikings right where they want them. Amazed though at this score.

10:23
PFTonSNF: 9 throws to DeSean Jackson ... 22 yards. 2 catches. Crazy.

10:24
AskSNF: On what planet would this be right where they wanted the Vikings?
PFTonSNF: Referring to last week’s game against the Giants ... a joke.

10:24
AskSNF: Do you think DeSean Jackson deserves Fitzgerald money?
PFTonSNF: Not quite but in the same ballpark.

10:25
AskSNF: Will Mike Vick get over a three year deal in free agency?
PFTonSNF: More likely that he’s kept on one-year franchise tag.

10:26
AskSNF: Do you think Webb will start next week or will they let Brett start his last game?
PFTonSNF: Think Webb has to start now.

10:26
AskSNF: If GB beats Chicago next week and the Eagles loose tonight then will GB play the Eagles 1ts game in playoffs?
PFTonSNF: Correct.

10:26
AskSNF: Is it just me...or is Mike Carey the most “official” official ever? I would believe the earth was flat if he said so!
PFTonSNF: Well said.

10:28
PFTonSNF: Vick could have dumped it off there to Jackson ... he brings some of these hits on himself.

10:30
AskSNF: Michael Vicks MVP chances....RIP.
PFTonSNF: Think he was a longshot anyway, but I agree.

10:31
AskSNF: Does Danny Woodhead deserve Reggie Bush money$$ ?
PFTonSNF: Reggie Bush doesn’t deserve Reggie Bush money.

10:32
AskSNF: if philly loses tonight, chicago should get 1st round bye? whatabout home field?
PFTonSNF: Chicago clinches first round bye with an Eagles loss. They could get homefield if Falcons, Saints lost next week.

10:35
AskSNF: Looks like a knee blowout.
PFTonSNF: Didn’t look pretty. Was his first NFL game.

10:36
AskSNF: Ask Mike Florio is it safe to say that the Pats would pick apart any NFC team in the superbowl? NO AFC team is going to dethrown the Pats
PFTonSNF: Not safe at all. Not that huge a gap between Patriots and other top teams.

10:36
AskSNF: What is Joe Webb’s pedigree?
PFTonSNF: Sixth round pick from UAB. Vikings thought he might be a wide receiver for them.

10:39
AskSNF: The Eagles either get a bye in week 17 or week 18 - at least they get a one week break
PFTonSNF: Good point. But the 6 seed could be Packers. Very tough matchup.

10:39
AskSNF: do you think the eagles will trade kevin kolb next year
PFTonSNF: No, think they like having two quality quarterbacks.

10:41
PFTonSNF: Long way to go here but the Eagles really need points in this drive. I’m not confident Eagles D can get stops.

10:41
AskSNF: Could Favre be a good QB Coach?. His young understudies always seem to OVER perform. T. Jackson was not young.
PFTonSNF: T-Jack plenty young ... and Favre wouldn’t want to put in the hours a coach does.

10:42
AskSNF: Ask Mike Florio So you seriously think Tom Brady couldnt pick apart any NFC team he faces in the superbowl?
PFTonSNF: Crazier things happen every year. But its more about the Patriots D.

10:43
PFTonSNF: If the Eagles win ... remember that play by McCoy. That’s how you win games.

10:44
AskSNF: Are these the dumbest questions you’ve ever had to answer?
PFTonSNF: And I choose the best ones!

10:46
PFTonSNF: Yep, calling the “Vick makes everyone look stupid” play works well. What a move.

10:49
AskSNF: what are the chances Harbaugh goes to San Fran from Stanford?
PFTonSNF: Peter King reported he was high on their list. It makes a lot of sense.

10:49
AskSNF: Is Vick the entire Eagles team?
PFTonSNF: They are a 9-7 team at best with Kevin Kolb.

10:51
AskSNF: Another philly comeback? or vikes D going to adjust and do what they did they 1st half?
PFTonSNF: I think it’s more about the Vikings offense. Need to keep getting first downs.

10:52
AskSNF: Do you think Vick will be the consensus #1 fantasy pick next year?
PFTonSNF: Not consensus, but top-3.

10:54
AskSNF: Are running QB’s the wave of the future for the NFL?
PFTonSNF: We’ve heard that one before.

10:54
AskSNF: Do the Falcons have a lot to retool after their loss?
PFTonSNF: No but a reminder they aren’t unbeatable at home. 6 straight one score games.

10:59
AskSNF: how are the patriots able to score so much vs most team? with 60 TD’s in 15 games
PFTonSNF: +27 in turnover margin. Extra possessions and Tom Brady. And they are balanced.

11:00
PFTonSNF: Giants couldn’t keep scoring late last week ... Joe Webb did. Wow.

11:02
AskSNF: will it be a shocker if the Eagles lose?
PFTonSNF: Um ... yes. One of the biggest upsets in NFL all year.

11:04
AskSNF: can the saints get the 1st seed?
PFTonSNF: They still do have a chance, yes. But they would need Carolina to win in Atlanta. Not happening.

11:06
AskSNF: If the Eagles are suppose to be one of the best teams in the NFL why are they playing so badly against one of the worst teams?
PFTonSNF: This is the NFL ... it happens. Team seems flat in weird setting.

11:07
PFTonSNF: Massive sack. Vick is hobbling. Third and real long. Eagles really on the ropes.

11:09
AskSNF: was that a good decision to punt?
PFTonSNF: I don’t think it’s worth it. Field position that important at this point?

11:09
PFTonSNF: No chance.

11:10
PFTonSNF: Let’s see if the Vikings can pick up the first downs the Giants couldn’t last week.

11:11
AskSNF: Do you think the Falcons will lose to the Panthers next week?
PFTonSNF: No chance ... the last no chance was to a “Will John Skelton start next year?” question.

11:14
PFTonSNF: Good call

11:15
PFTonSNF: Eagles couldn’t handle the hype and success after last week. Sign of an immature team. Time to turn it around, but will be tougher.

11:15
AskSNF: Do you think i will be married by age 30?
PFTonSNF: If you stay focused.

11:16
AskSNF: Last week would you have said the Eagles would lose to the Vikings?
PFTonSNF: Jimmy Clausen is no Joe Webb.

11:16
AskSNF: is chicago an easy win for the pack?
PFTonSNF: I don’t think so, but will be tempting for Bears to sit guys.

11:18
AskSNF: Before the game ends. Rams or Seahawks?
PFTonSNF: Rams for sure. Seahawks are a disaster right now. May be one of worst 2-3 teams in league.

11:19
AskSNF: Are the Eagles really bad tonight or did Joe Webb surprise them?
PFTonSNF: Both of course but Eagles didn’t play well. Vick doesn’t look right.

11:20
AskSNF: Jimmy Clausen is no Joe Webb? Florio, you’re back? Not that I disagree, but would anyone but a Vikings fan say that?
PFTonSNF: Nope, this is Rosenthal. Clausen hasn’t had anything close to a performance like this.

11:21
AskSNF: jimmy clausen is way better than joe webb
PFTonSNF: You haven’t watched him play as a pro, clearly.

11:22
AskSNF: Is this the jewel win in the crown of the Viking’s season? If yes, is this sad?
PFTonSNF: No doubt. Impressive effort by entire team. They were so flat the last two weeks.

11:24
PFTonSNF: SNF Extra coming up next Sunday. Watch Florio on the post-game show ... good night!

11:26
PFTonSNF: Good thing Andy Reid punted.
