The Minnesota Vikings won their second game of the season last week against the Washington Redskins. They’re looking to build on that momentum and get a second win in a row. Unfortunately for the Vikings, the Seahawks stand in their way. The ‘Hawks are currently on a 5 game win streak and are looking to extend it to six.

“We’ve got more games we have to win and we have a lot of work to finish it out,” coach Pete Carroll said. “We have a chance to do something special in this division, we need to take advantage of every opportunity and win every game going down the stretch.”

There are the usual questions around the quarterback position for the Vikings. Christian Ponder played last week leading them to a win and dislocated his non-throwing shoulder diving for a touchdown.

“When they see that tape and see that he extended his body the way he did, it’s going to increase their appreciation for who he is as a person and what he means to our team as a quarterback,” coach Leslie Frazier said
