The Vikings are coming into this game with a 6-2 record this season and they are currently in a very close race in their division so they will be focused on staying in the division race with another win. They had an undefeated start to the season in their first 5 games, but then they lost 2 straight games to the Lions and the Rams. They stopped the bleeding with a win in their last game though, beating the Colts at home 21-13, and now they are going to be hungry to keep pushing as they try to chase down the Lions. Their offense has been very consistent this season as they have scored 20+ points in all 8 of their games this season, but their defense has been showing more holes recently as they have allowed 30+ points in 2 of their last 3 as well as 29+ points in 3 of their last 5 games. Their defense was better in their last game as they only allowed 13 points to the Colts, but that game was also at home. Their defense has not been as good on the road recently as they have allowed 29+ points in each of their last 2 road games. They are going up against a Jaguars team that is 2-7 this season and has not been playing well as they have lost their last 2 straight as well as 3 of their last 4 games, but they are going to be very hungry for a win here and have played better in their last 2 games. They lost their last game to the Eagles on the road by 5 points, losing 28-23, and they also kep their game close at home against the Packers with a 30-27 loss. Their defense has been awful in these games as they have allowed 28+ points in their last 2 straight as well as 4 of their last 5 games, going down early in their last 2 games as well, but their offense has been playing much better as they have been coming back late in games. They have scored 23+ points in each of their last 3 as well as 4 of their last 5 games, and this is a desperate point in the season for them so they are going to keep fighting if they fall behind here. The Jaguars defense is not going to be able to stop this Vikings offense with the weapons they have, but the Vikings have also been allowing more points on the road recently and with this Jags offense playing better now being in a desperate spot as well, they are going to score on this Vikings defense at home and will be able to come back if they fall behind. Between these two sides, there will be enough points in this game to push it over the total.
