Chiefs vs Vikings Preview
Kansas City is coming off a gritty 23-20 win over the New York Jets last weekend. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes went 18-30 for 203 yards, a touchdown and two uncharacteristic interceptions in the win, while 2022 seventh-round running back Isiah Pacheco led the team in rushing with 115 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries.
Defensively, Kansas City held the Jets to just 108 yards rushing in the game, and the unit recovered a key fumbled snap in the fourth quarter. The Chiefs are allowing just 15 points per game this season, which is ranked fifth in the NFL. On offense, Mahomes, Travis Kelce and company are scoring 25.3 points per contest (ninth in the league).
On the other side, the Vikings are fresh from their first win of the year, beating the Carolina Panthers, 21-13, last week. Minnesota QB Kirk Cousins finished with 139 yards, two TDs and two picks in the win, while superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson hauled in six passes for 85 yards and two scores. On defense, the Vikings had a dominant performance against Carolina, allowing just 83 rushing yards and 3.4 yards per play in the game.
Heading into this game, both teams are prepared to face still challenges from the other.
“It’s going to be a well-coached defense,” Mahomes said about facing Minnesota. “(Defensive Coordinator) Coach (Brian) Flores, I’ve played a couple times; him as a head coach, him as some coordinators and all different positions. They’re very well coached, they know the scheme and being in the right spots. They do a good mix of pressure and dropping out of pressure and try to make it look the same. This will be a great challenge for us, and we’ll have to execute at a high level in order to have success this weekend.”
“Between Coach (Andy) Reid and Patrick and everything that comes to town when you play the Kansas City Chiefs, it is going to be a heck of a challenge, but one I feel our team is excited for the preparation and taking on such a significant challenge to see if we can continue building on some momentum from yesterday,” Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said.
The Chiefs lead the all-time series against the Vikings, 8-5. These two teams last met in 2019, when Kansas City handed Minnesota a 26-23 loss.
Broadcasters slated to call the game include Jim Nantz, former Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo and Tracy Wolfson (sideline).
