Day to Day
The Minnesota Vikings visit The Patriots Sunday at Foxboro. The game is scheduled to start at 4:25 PM.
The Vikings are a pass first offense and will be attempting to pick apart the lackluster Patriots secondary.
Here are the facts from NFL.COM:
OFFENSE: Vikings 18th Patriots 11th
Passing:
Vikings 7th 285 Points 283 Y/Game 22 TD
Patriots 11th 307 Points 270 Y/Game 19 TD
Rushing:
Vikings 30th 83.3 Y/Game
Patriots 12th 118.2 Y/Game
DEFENSE: Vikings 28th Patriots 13th
Passing:
Vikings 28th
Patriots 8th
Rushing:
Vikings 28th
Patriots 18th
Vikings attempt about 8-10 more passes per game because they have a poor rushing offense and Latavius Murray is their only productive back.
Sony Michel should have another 100 yard game because the Vikes just cannot stop the run. The play action should be a huge weapon against the Vikings. Vikings can't stop the pass either but a good rushing offense should have them worn out by the middle of the third quarter and Brady should be able to throw anywhere he wants.
The Vikes struggled to beat a depleted Green Bay Packer team last week. I think this game should go pretty much like the Jets game.
