Vikings will come up just short
I usually like to be positive when it comes to the Vikings chances and even after the disappointing loss at Arrowhead Stadium, this still feels like a playoff team. That being said, there are a lot of things that are working against the Minnesota Vikings in this game.
While Dalvin Cook could have a big game and Mike Hughes could wind up with a bigger role in the Vikings defensive gameplan, the primetime struggles of Kirk Cousins and a secondary in flux should be the difference on the road against a quality opponent.
This game could go either way, but with so much going in favor of the Cowboys, I believe the Vikings take another critical loss and try to go into the bye week with momentum when they host the Denver Broncos next week.
Prediction: Cowboys 23, Vikings 20
