The Arizona Cardinals are fighting for their division lead in the NFC West against the Seattle Seahawks. At the same time, the Minnesota Vikings are having to win every game the rest of the year while hoping the Lions lose two in hopes to win the NFC North.
On Sunday, we are getting a matchup between two of the better teams in the NFC, and it will set the tone for the rest of the season.
The Vikings will rely on their defense to stand up and make plays against an explosive Arizona offense. Rookie Marvin Harrison Jr. has looked every bit as good as we all thought. The Vikings’ defense, especially the secondary, will have their work cut out for them. The offense will have to pick up the pieces, and Sam Darnold will have to build on a strong Week 12 performance.
Here are five Vikings who must have a big game against the Cardinals in Week 13.
