Minnesota vs Miami Game Preview
Why Minnesota Will Win
Skylar Thompson.
He did what he could thrown into the fire after Teddy Bridgewater got hurt, and he threw for 166 yards, but he’s mobile, he can throw deep if he gets time, and …
He’s a rookie quarterback who’s only in because Tua Tagovailoa and Teddy Bridgewater are hurt. Minnesota’s pass defense isn’t amazing, but it’ll take its chances with pressure upon more pressure.

Miami will hang around for a while with a decent day from the ground game and a good defensive game plan that lasts into the second quarter. The Viking receivers will take over on third downs and Thompson won’t be able to answer.
