Will we win? Yes, we will.
Will it be the same as last time? No.
Minny is getting their stars back for the game and their defense will look a lot better. Especially if Joseph is ready to go. He's a big body that will demand double teams from us. With Barr and Harrison Smith, they get star players back at crucial positions. However, they still lack talent at the CB position and I'm sure we can take full advantage of that this upcoming game.
Another thing is, even though they put up 0 points on offense against us doesn't mean they will do that again. Remember, earlier in the year we played Jimmy Clausen and completely shut him down. When he went to Baltimore, he played us the second time with much more confidence and was actually able to sustain drives. I'm sure Bridgewater will be a bit more comfortable then last time. Minnesota fans do claim that Bridgewater does not show up for big games and always looks a bit rattled out there in primetime.
All in all, i expect this a fairly easy match-up for us. Even though I like what they've done with their defense, they won't be able to make the jump to greatness until their QB steps his game up a few notches. To me however, it seems like they've drafted Tjack all over again. I'm not saying this because they're black qbs drafted by the same team. Both have great athleticism with a live arm, but have absolutely no idea how to work the pocket.
