Running backs
Minnesota Vikings RB Adrian Peterson is one of the greatest players in the history of the NFL.
Denver Broncos RB Some Guy is some guy.
Wide receivers/tight ends
The Vikings will be without alleged #1 QB Charles Johnson. But they still have Mike Wallace.
Denver features Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders, two of the best receivers in the whole entire NFL.
Offensive line
Vikings left tackle Matt Kalil has been better than expected in 2015.
Like the Vikings’ last two opponents Detroit and San Diego, Denver has an offensive line that kind of sucks.
Defensive line
Minnesota’s defensive line beat the living crap out of Philip Rivers last week.
Denver’s defensive line is considered by the national media to be good. We’ll see.
Linebackers
Anthony Barr is one of the best young defensive players in the NFL.
Look the hell out for DeMarcus Ware.
Secondary
Vikings CB Xavier Rhodes is expected to play after his horrific-looking week 3 collision with Andrew Sendejo.
Denver has the best cornerback group in the entire league and that’s kind of concerning.
Special teams
Jeff Locke is a better punter than I thought he would be.
Denver is higher in the air than other cities but that doesn’t matter as much as people think.
Prediction: The Vikings will shock everyone by beating Denver.
Next: Five players whose stock is rising
