Weeks 13-16

48. Final. 23. 60. 31

The Vikings’ secondary is vastly overhauled and that will get exposed by Tom Brady and his favorite weapons. Mike Evans and Chris Godwin should find plenty of green grass in a game that turns into a bit of a shootout. Vikings lose 31-23 in Tampa.

Final. 20. 57. 24. 60

The Bears are always a tough matchup for the Vikings and their pass rush will continue to give Minnesota fits. Kirk Cousins does have more weapons around him, however, and they make the difference here. Vikings win 24-20.

60. 37. 15. Final. 24

The Saints are one of the best teams in football and have revenge on their minds after getting knocked out of the playoffs by the Vikings a year ago. This game won’t go very well for a much different Minnesota team than the one who won that playoff game. Saints roll to a 37-24 win.

19. 60. 24. 50. Final

Detroit was a much different team with Matthew Stafford on the field in 2019 so don’t let the team’s 3-12-1 record fool you. The Vikings’ new secondary could have issues dealing with a talented Lions’ receiving corps headlined by Kenny Golladay and Marvin Jones. Detroit escapes 24-19 at home.
