Playing hot from the start
Although the Seattle Seahawks are a great team, they seem to struggle to play a complete game of football. In their first two games of the season, they only put together one good half of play. Minnesota needs to jump on that trend.
Against the Colts in Week 1, Seattle only scored seven points in the second half after scoring 21 in the first half. interestingly, Seattle also struggled in the second half against the Titans last week, scoring six points in the second half compared to 24 in the first half.
Seattle is going to come out and play hard. They will smash against the Minnesota Vikings early on and attempt to beat them down, If they can withstand the Seahawks’ first half of play, they should be able to play a tired Seattle team that has struggled late in the game.
This benefits Minnesota in a big way because they have lost both their games by a total of four points and both went down to the final whistle. The Vikings will push Seattle to the limit, but if they run out of gas, Minnesota could take that opportunity to put this game away.
