Plus for my bachelor party we’re coming to watch Vikings saints on Sunday night. I’ll be flying out of cuse this Saturday. Let me know I’d like to meet up with some guys if I can.

I'm not a betting man though, but with how depleted and limp Buffalo's defense is, Cousins should have no problems having a career day against them. Maybe I'm overly optimistic, but I'm predicting a 450 yard, 5 TD day for Capt. Kirk on route to a 16-44 win. That's my best case scenario. Worst case we still win but 23-28.

Maybe I'm drinking the purple kool-aid but that's my prediction.

There’s a bar right in front of that section (great seats), I’ll hang out there right before the game for a bit or you can track me down in row 38 ( I believe) seats 20 and 21.

Minnesota enters with a 1-0-1 record while the Bills are winless at 0-2. But don’t expect the Vikings to just be able to march into U.S. Bank Stadium and coast to a win.

“It’s not like college football; you can never look past an opponent,” said Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph. “The Bills are a talented team, and sometimes I feel like the most dangerous teams are the ones with their backs against the wall. Certainly when you start off 0-2, you have that mentality.

“It’s important for us to focus on the message we’ve been stressing all week, and that’s to focus on details,” Rudolph added. “For us as an offense, it’s getting lined up right, being on point with our motions and shifts, making sure no stone is left unturned at walk-throughs and practices. We have to be on-point with everything we do this week in order to get a win on Sunday.”

The Vikings play the Bills once every four years based on the divisional rotation of the schedule.

Because Buffalo is an unfamiliar opponent and doesn’t want to fall to 0-3, the Vikings expect the Bills best on Sunday.

“They’ve had some adversity, and usually teams kind of gain ground from adversity and kind of stick together and fight more than they’ve ever fought,” said Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen. “Every game is going to be difficult. It doesn’t matter the records. They’re all professional football players. We’re going to have our work cut out for us and play good football.”

NOTEBOOK: Vikings Staying Focused on ‘Dangerous’ Bills
