This is his week!The Vikings struggled against big backs up the middle even before their losses on the DL. Losing Jones for this game might actually work in our favor if we keep running it down their throats with Dillon. They still have weak corners. Patrick Peterson off of IR doesn't really scare me, and Harrison Smith coming off of Covid is also less of a concern. He was already slowing down. Kendricks is having a great season at LB and Barr can still be a force.When we are on defense, it will be another test against a team with two top WRs, a top RB, and a QB who is playing better than usual. Assuming that we are without Gary and knowing that we are without Mercilous, the Vikings would be smart to get Kirk moving outside of the pocket since our main pass rush will come from the middle. As usual, the main Jenga piece that we need to focus on is Cook. If we stop Dalvin then their play-action game is gone and they struggle. Stopping Dalvin Cook is not easy, and he seems to thrive on playing the Packers.I cautiously predict a victory but for the Vikings, Zimmer, and the entire fan base this is their Super Bowl. I would not be surprised to witness a loss.</blockquote>
