Let's Talk Vikings: Vikings Look to Prevent 0-3 Start

The Vikings will try to get their first win of the season as they host the Detroit Lions.

The Vikings are looking to get their first win of the season this weekend, when they host the (2-0) Detroit Lions. The Vikings are coming off a disappointing loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where they were ahead 17-0 at halftime, but ended up losing anyway. The Lions won in a blow out last week, when they beat the Kansas City Chiefs 48-3.

The key for the Vikings to win is for them not to only be a 30 minute team. They need to maintain their level of play throughout the 2nd half. They need to play hard all 60 minutes of the game. Last week they were ahead 17-0 at halftime, but gave the game away in the 2nd half. This week, the Vikings have hopefully fixed this issue and will get their first win of the season.
