SemperFeist Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 This game is going to be ugly. The Titans play with an intensity and physicality that we just can’t compete with up front. TEN - 24 MIN - 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be a tad bit higher with the additional WC this year, but historically, there's about a 3% chance after starting 0-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't talk about playoffs. You kidding me? Playoffs? I just hope we can win a game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikesfan89 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 This would be a nice game game to have 3 safeties and have a little more tackling ability in the secondary. Or do the titans not play with 3 WRs often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nozizaki Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Vegas opened with the Titans as slight favorites (-1.5). Good news is that the Vikings do have a distinct advantage at kicker, if it comes down to a close margin like that. But, to be honest, only a blowout win for the Vikings would give me confidence that this team is headed in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriminalMind Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 This should be a relatively easy game for TEN. They have advantages pretty much across the board on Vikings 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegas492 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Always have admired how tough and physical the Titans play. And have for years. Used to be that the Vikes could match physical play, at least defensively...and thrive, while feeding that mentality to the offense. I hope I get to see this game as Kendricks vs. Henry is going to be fun to watch. Cousins is about due for an eruption game, too...in a good way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticNorseman Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 This is the kind of game the Vikes NEED to win. A.) Tennessee has a good QB. B.) Their Run game is exceptional. Yesterday, the Jaguars took away the Titan's run game, for the most part. If the Vikes can somehow manage to get off the field by putting the Titans in 3rd and long, and not shoot themselves in the foot with penalties, that would be one step in the right direction. Offensively, the Vikes need to run the ball, run the ball and run it some more. Throw in some reverses and counters and then ram it down their throat a few times. Converting 1st downs might actually turn the T.O.P. in favor of the Vikes and that would be quite the twist from the first two games. All the other stuff defensively will fall into place if the offense can do the little bit I beg for. Ultimately, winning the first one will lead to better things. But -- BUT -- this team is really missing Hunter and Pierce defensively. Offensively, Cousins better start making some plays for the home team.
