In a showdown with one of the best teams in the NFC, will the Minnesota Vikings find a way to get a win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 11?

Off to their best start to a season in more than a decade, the Minnesota Vikings proved their doubters wrong this past Sunday when they escaped with a win in their road matchup against the Buffalo Bills. For Week 11, the Vikings must find a way to keep their momentum going when they host a talented Dallas Cowboys team inside U.S. Bank Stadium.

Minnesota hasn’t lost a game since Week 2 and the Cowboys are coming off a loss on the road to an underwhelming Green Bay Packers team.

Will the Vikings remain undefeated inside their home stadium in Week 11 or will Dallas become just the second team this season to defeat Minnesota?

Minnesota Vikings vs. Dallas Cowboys prediction Week 11

It’s a bit surprising that oddsmakers have the Cowboys favored over the Vikings in this Week 11 meeting between two of the top NFC contenders. But oddsmakers also had the Buffalo Bills favored over Minnesota last Sunday, and we already know how that turned out.

Believe it or not, it’s been quite a while since the Vikings last got a win on their home field over Dallas. Minnesota hasn’t earned a home victory over the Cowboys since 2010 when Tony Romo was the starting quarterback for Dallas. This weekend, Romo will be up in the booth calling the game for CBS.

But this season’s Vikings team is something special, and Kevin O’Connell has this locker room accomplishing things that not many believed were possible before the start of the season. We should expect another close game from Minnesota in Week 11, but we should expect them to get a win over the Cowboys as well.
