How to Watch Vikings vs. Saints
Players To Watch
New Orleans’ 1-3 start has run through Tyler Shough, who has thrown for 1,203 yards and nine touchdowns while averaging 45 attempts per game. He threw 48 times for 286 yards in the 45-24 loss at Atlanta on Oct. 5.
Minnesota has allowed 51 points through four games, 12.75 per game. Shough will need to keep finding open receivers against a defense that has given opponents little room to score, with 45 throws a game already on his arm.
Both of Alvin Kamara’s rushing touchdowns this season came on seven carries in the loss at Atlanta on Oct. 5, the most on the Saints. He has 74 yards on 25 carries, and New Orleans ranks 26th in the NFL at 88.5 rushing yards per game.
Minnesota held Miami to 10 points in a 15-10 win on Oct. 4. Kamara will need his touchdown touch again in a game where points could be hard to come by.
Minnesota’s passing game ranks last in the NFL at 156.0 yards per game, and T.J. Hockenson has been its most productive target with 195 receiving yards. He caught all 13 of his targets for 119 yards against Miami on Oct. 4.
New Orleans has allowed 128 points through four games, 32.0 per game. A Vikings offense short on passing yards can still count on Hockenson to be the target it looks for against a defense giving up that many points.
Aaron Jones Sr. has led Minnesota in rushing in each of its last three games and has 297 yards on 72 carries for the 4-0 Vikings. He ran 20 times for 94 yards against Miami on Oct. 4 and 23 times for 105 at Chicago on Sept. 20.
New Orleans has a turnover margin of minus-5, tied for 27th in the NFL, while Minnesota’s plus-5 is tied for second. Jones’ carries are how the Vikings protect that edge.
