On to next week:

Actually today 4 days later on short rest, the Vikings take a Thanksgiving trip to give the Detroit Lions a revenge Motown Beat Down at Ford Field in Detroit.

It’s not just a revenge for the overtime loss, it’s more than that. It’s the Vikings chance to take first place in the NFC North, get back into the playoff picture, and warm up for the following Thursday Night tilt against the NFL World leading Dallas Cowboys.

One game at a time though, honestly this will be the Lions first game not decided by 7 points or less and I’m not expecting the Vikings to keep it too close.

The Vikings showed that they didn’t solve all their problem in the game against the Cardinals, but showed a marked improvement that should continue to improve as the weeks go on.

Vikings 24 – Lions 14
