minnesota's OL is hot garbage right now. And looks like it will be for a while. The Vike's then turned the ball over early and got behind and inexplicably decided to abandon the run. LITERALLY. They had 6 rushing attempts the entire game. Cousins has looked good this year, but not great. And forcing him to throw over and over is not Minnesota's recipe for winning.
They win with great defense and ball controlling offense.
The Vikings will be a tough matchup for the Rams because they have a stout run defense and good corners. On a short week, it forces teams to go more basic on both sides of the ball. Basic favors the Vikings.
The Rams are going to have to avoid turning the ball over at all costs and just play this one close.
