Week 14
Opponent: at Carolina Panthers
2016 Record: 6-10
The Vikings will look to add their 3rd victory over the Panthers since 2014. This game is the end of their three game road stretch.
Last season they defeated the Panthers on the road and will try to do that one more time in 2017. The Panthers signed several Minnesota Vikings players during free agency. That will make this game even more interesting.
In addition, it will be interesting to see if Cam Newton’s shoulder surgery impacts his performance this upcoming season.
