8 Things We Learned About the Minnesota Vikings, Buffalo Bills' Week 3 Opponent

 

By Ryan Talbot | Contributing writer
 
The Buffalo Bills' schedule isn't getting any easier. Following their 31-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, Buffalo will go on the road to play the Minnesota Vikings.
 
Buffalo's Week 3 opponent is coming off of a 29-29 tie with the Green Bay Packers. Minnesota is one of the favorites to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl this season and it's easy to see why based on the talent Minnesota has on both sides of the ball.
 
Here are 8 things we learned about the Vikings based on their Week 2 matchup with the Packers.
 
Minnesota can put up points quickly
Cousins can pick defenses apart
Special teams woes
Minnesota's run game struggled
Team had two WRs go over 100 yards
Talented defensive line
Plenty of star power at linebacker and in secondary
Green Bay had some success running the ball on Minnesota

Dang.  If only the Bills had a running game...

 

Anyway, what's the NFL point spread record?  16.5 has to be an outlier..

Cousins is overrated... However, that defense could conceivably rip a limb off Joshie-boy...

 

They'll probably wear out the front four with Murray, and Cook... Thielen and the rest will be resting by the 4th quarter.

 

Bills with the back door cover, third time’s the charm

It's late Tuesday afternoon and there's no replacement for Davis yet. 

 

Even more likely that Lewis is activated from PS, but still risky with Gaines & Johnson nursing injuries.

i still think that levi wallace could turn into a very good cb.  i'd bet within 3-4 weeks he could really develop well.  they need some help badly and now,  but they're not going to be able to find it on the street and benefit any time soon.
