Meh, that won't be enough if AD has less than 20 yards rushing and if Bridgewater is too scared to throw for anything longer than 5 yards.

In the game vs the Seahawks a few weeks back, the Vikings were missing their 3 best defensive players. They were down big at the beginning of the game and had to abandon the run game. Also, according to Vikings fans, Norv Turner revamped the offense to suit Teddy's strengths after that beatdown by the Seahawks. They switched from a lot of 7 step drops to majority short and intermediate routes (Teddy's strengths). If the Rams with Case Keenum can beat the Seahawks in Seattle, I'm confident the Vikings with Teddy at home can as well. Also, I'm expecting the Vikings to be very motivated for this game and have the mental edge over the Seahawks, similar to our 2nd Atlanta game.

Some of your are acting like Seattle is LA. It's basically Canada. I'm from London and could tell you guys that it gets damn cold in Seattle this time of year too.

I think it's more of taking a big advantage away from Seahawks. RW passing is better than Vikings passing game.

There is a difference between 30 degree weather and -10. You have to experience it to be prepared.

If it's below 0 degrees for the game, it will absolutely affect the passing games. I mean just think about holding, gripping, and throwing the football for Russel Wilson who doesn't wear gloves. A lot of his touch passes require finesse and very good control of the ball. Teddy by the way always plays with gloves and mainly throws short/intermediate passes. A huge advantage of Seattle's (the passing game) will be negated, forcing the game to be an ugly low scoring slugfest. With the Vikings defense and AP, I think they can beat Seattle.

The average daily high in January for Seattle is 47 and the average daily low in January for Seattle is 37.

That's cold for a guy from the Deep South.

That's a shirt-sleeve weather for a guy from Minnesota.

i lived in minnesota for a few years as a kid. i remember christmas 1993 being -14 when i woke up to open up my hess trucks and hotwheels cars. fug being outside in that

Chicago was the closest I got and it was terrible.  First week in December it was -7 with the windchill, and it was the coldest I have ever been.  And I have been North of the artic circle.

Their offense is built on quick short passes.  If the running game isn't there, they're fuged

No.  The time for our game is set regardless of our opponent.

They decided to move to the north sideline at TCF Bank Stadium before they started playing there last year, after a stadium analysis showed temperatures would be noticeably warmer in the sun on that sideline, compared to the late-afternoon shadows on the south side of the stadium. After the Panthers game last year, the Vikings said they found a 20-degree temperature difference between the sidelines.

Well at least Vikings will be a little bit warmer on their sidelines.
