3 matchups the Vikings need to win in Week 6 vs. the Bears
By Clay Vasquez
Matchup No. 2
T.J. Hockenson vs. Bears linebackers
Linebackers, corners, safeties, etc. Whoever is up against Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson, it's important for Hockenson to win that matchup. Hockenson has had a good start to the year but is being paid to be great. Without Justin Jefferson, it's time for Hockenson to earn his contract.
The Vikings receivers will also need to step up, but with the experience that Hockenson has + the massive extension he received this offseason, the loss of Jefferson puts more on Hockenson than anyone else.
It's time for him to silence the critics and prove his worth. Minnesota may look to get Hockenson the ball more in their game plan, as there is certainly a massive target hole, and we will see how Hock responds.
