INGLEWOOD, Calif. — In my pregame post before the Vikings-Ravens game last week, I pointed out that while the Ravens were favorites for a lot of obvious reasons, the Vikings had a path to victory and should be able to score plenty of points.
The Vikings had a chance to win before falling, 34-31, in overtime in Baltimore.
Today, the Vikings face a completely different challenge and have a slightly different path to victory.
The Vikings' defense is likely to be tired after playing 89 snaps in Baltimore and taking two long flights this week.
