https://www.minnesotavikingsshop.com/Jalyn-Holmes-Jersey , when they found themselves in a similar situation as they do today. . .huge favorite, taking on a team that is perceived to be terrible with a rookie quarterback at the helm. Hopefully they will avoid a similar fate.Here is all of the important stuff that you need to know about today’s contest.Time: Sunday, 14 October, noon Central timeLocation: U.S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, MinnesotaTelevision coverage: KSTP-9 in the Twin Cities, FOX affiliates across the country that you can see on the maps right here, and DirecTV Channel 711Radio coverage: Vikings Radio Network, Sirius Channel 113, XM Channel 231 (PHI feed)Line: Minnesota -10.5
Laquon Treadwell Color Rush Jersey , over/under 44Prediction: Vikings 31, Cardinals 17Three keys1) Contain David Johnson - With a rookie quarterback at the helm, the Cardinals will likely try to lean heavily on their dynamic running back. Johnson, who missed most of last season with an injury, has gotten off to a rough start this year, but still has the ability to make things miserable for Minnesota’s defense. If the Vikings can keep Johnson bottled up and put everything on the shoulders of Josh Rosen, it should. . .yes, should. . .spell good things for the purple this afternoon.2) Take care of the football - The last time the Vikings played at home, they turned the ball over on their first two possessions and quickly found themselves in a 17-0 hole. Against a team like Arizona, you don’t need to give them extra opportunities and short fields. If the Vikings can avoid a similar fate in this one and make Arizona earn their points rather than just handing them points
Linval Joseph Jersey , that would go a long way towards a victory this afternoon.3) Focus - I’m part of the crowd that thinks the Vikings may have overlooked Buffalo in Week 3, and they had the Everson Griffen situation to deal with at the time as well. This team needs to focus and continue to show the sort of intensity that they showed last week in Philadelphia. If they’re on their game, there’s no reason for them to lose this one.Know the Foe: Revenge of the BirdsTwitter: Right hereFaceBook:

Other than that, let’s enjoy the game and hope that our favorite team can get themselves a winning streak started.SKOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL VIKINGS!!!! If you’re looking for a positive sign that Minnesota Vikings’ wide receiver Stefon Diggs will take the field on Sunday when the purple host the Detroit Lions at U.S. Bank Stadium. . .well, this isn’t it.Courtney Cronin of ESPN is reporting that the Vikings will be promoting wide receiver Chad Beebe from the practice squad before Sunday’s game.Beebe, the son of former Buffalo Bills’ wide receiver Don Beebe, signed with the Vikings as an undrafted free agent out of Northern Illinois. He had a pretty solid preseason
Jarius Wright Jersey Black Friday , catching nine passes for 95 yards and two touchdowns in four preseason games. With the Vikings’ glut of talent at wide receiver, he was let go as part of the team’s final cuts, but was signed to the practice squad right away.The Vikings appear to be playing things cautiously with Diggs, who suffered a rib injury in last week’s loss to the New Orleans Saints. With the Vikings’ bye coming next week, if he were to sit this week he would have two weeks to get ready for the team’s Week 11 contest at Soldier Field against the Chicago Bears.The Vikings have not yet announced the corresponding roster move they would have to make in order to put Beebe on the 53-man roster. When they do, we’ll have an update to this story.
