Anleitungen » Vikings could clinch a playoff berth in Week 16 of the regula

In our Cheering Interest Guide for this week Minnesota Vikings Jerseys 2019 , we laid out the scenario in which your Minnesota r season, and the first of the three dominoes that needed to fall in order to make that happen has done so.And the Vikings can thank Blaine Gabbert. Yeah, that Blaine Gabbert.Gabbert, in relief of an injured Marcus Mariota, found former Vikings’ tight end MyCole Pruitt for a 2-yard touchdown just before the two-minute warning at Nissan Stadium to push the Tennessee Titans a 25-16 victory over the Washington Redskins on Saturday afternoon.Mariota was injured just before halftime with a shoulder stinger after landing awkwardly on a sack, and Gabbert took over for the entire second half. The Redskins took the lead late in the second quarter, and led until the Gabbert-to-Pruitt touchdown toss. The final margin was provided by cornerback Malcolm Butler Infant Dru Samia Jersey , who intercepted Josh Johnson’s last-second desperation heave and returned it 56 yards for a score.The loss for the Redskins drops them to 7-8 on the season, and it means that the Vikings can eliminate them from playoff contention with a victory over the Detroit Lions on Sunday. The loss also means that if the Vikings can beat the Lions and the Philadelphia Eagles lose to the Houston Texans on Sunday afternoon, Minnesota will secure a playoff spot for the second season in a row and the third time in four years.As we keep stressing, if the Vikings beat both the Lions and the Chicago Bears to finish off their season, they’ll secure a playoff spot regardless of what any other team does. Still, if we’d like the anxiety to go away by the time this week concludes, the Vikings are one-third of the way there. If the Minnesota Vikings’ NFL-worst rushing offense is going to get things turned around on Sunday in Philadelphia Dru Samia Jersey nfl draft , it sounds like they’re going to have to do it without their top running back.According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Vikings are not expecting running back Dalvin Cook to play on Sunday.Cook was injured in overtime of the Week 2 tie against Green Bay, and sat out of the Week 3 loss against Buffalo. While he did play on Thursday Night Football in Week 4 against Los Angeles, he was on a “pitch count,” and wound up sitting out the entire second half of that contest.Due to a combination of the hamstring injury and the relative ineffectiveness of the Vikings’ offensive line, Cook has gotten off to a disappointing start to his comeback season. He has just 98 yards on 36 carries so far this year, and now it appears he’s going to miss his second game in three weeks.Hopefully the Vikings’ run game Replica Dru Samia Jersey , sans Cook, can get something going on Sunday to balance out the offense a little bit, and when the Vikings return to U.S. Bank Stadium in Week 6 he will be ready to get back onto the field.
