Game 8 – vs. St. Louis Rams
I really want to say that the Vikings will win this game and continue to be undefeated in their final season at TCF Bank Stadium, but something inside me tells me that it isn’t going to stay that way against the Rams.
The Rams are as sexy of a pick Vikings, if not more, and they just look to be good. It’s popular to hate on Nick Foles as a quarterback, but I am very intrigued to see what he can do in St. Louis. He is definitely a decent quarterback that can do some damage when needed. Plus, Todd Gurley should be on the field for the Rams by the time that they travel on up to Minneapolis.
St. Louis’ defensive line is amazing and will give the Vikings offensive line problems. John Sullivan will be eligible to return for this game, but even if he does it will only be his first game back in the fold. Phil Loadholt is out for the season and this game we might need to see Bridgewater’s wheels just to keep him upright.
Another close one, I’m even getting sick of saying that, but the Vikings fall.
