We had 20 players participate in the Week 3 Predict the Score Contest. Congratulations to vikesattack, whose guess of 31-24 Vikings was the closest to the actual final score of 28-24 Vikings, off by only 3 points. Honorable Mention goes out to papurple (27-21 Vikings) and burntpackerdbs84 (31-23 Vikings), both off by only 4 points.

The Vikings (2-1) travel to London to take on the Saints (1-2) this Sunday, October 2nd. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:30 AM CST and the game will be carried on the NFL Network. Please reply to this thread with your guess of the final score before kickoff.
The Vikings' Week 3 game against the Lions didn't really solidify who they are as a team for me. Their defense still looks too soft and their offense doesn't look as dynamic as their Week 1 performance against the Packers. This game against the Saints is technically a home game for New Orleans. The Vikings catch somewhat of a break not having to play in the Superdome, but the travel to London could affect both teams so that's just another variable in trying to figure this team out.
I'm guessing the Vikings will have Harrison Smith back at Safety for this game. No word yet on Dalvin Cook for this game. I'm thinking the Vikings find a way to pull out another "ugly" victory. The Vikings have the playmakers on offense. Jameis Winston is not a top tier quarterback and maybe the Vikings' shell defense can be more effective against a quarterback who makes more mistakes.
Vikings 24
Saints 20
