Vikings Vs. Saints: Minnesota Fans Predict Tight Victory

It's no surprise that Vikings fans are predicting victory against the Saints on Thursday evening.

Eric Thompson of SB Nation's Daily Norseman has a terrific run down of Thursday night's game and comes away with a prediction of 34-30 in favor of the Vikings.

But let's not forget about the positives the Vikes are bringing to the table--they're bringing back nearly the exact same team that was thisclose to the Super Bowl last year. Throw in a healthy E.J. Henderson and the fact that AP is determined to pull a Keyser Soze on the NFL this season to remind everyone that he's still the best player on the planet, and I like our chances no matter who we're playing.

Vikings fans may like their chances but Vegas doesn't. The line in the game is currently set at six points in favor of the Saints.
