A pair of heavy hitters on Matt Ryan’s blindside will square off on Sunday in Atlanta. The battle that is brewing between Vikings DE Everson Griffen and Falcons LT Jake Matthews is the subject of this week’s Ticketmaster Hot Matchup.
There isn’t much to complain about when it comes to the Vikings defense, but the one area that could take off at any time is the pass rush. The Vikings have done a solid job of pressuring the QB and forcing teams into the quick game, but Griffen and Co. have just 23 sacks on the season.
