Eagles-Vikings predictions

1. How will the Eagles offense do?

Jeff McLane:I think it’s safe to say that the Vikings coach Mike Zimmer, who has one of the most inventive defensive minds in the game, will attack Halapoulivaati Vaitai. The rookie is making his second straight start at right tackle, and the first didn’t inspire much confidence. Doug Pederson will once again have to slide protection and keep tight ends and running backs in to double up or chip block help for Vaitai. This will take numbers away from the interior where Zimmer loves to send pressure with his renowned “A”-gap blitzes.
