3. Dalvin Cook Will Continue His Elite Level Of Play
Last week against the Texans, Dalvin Cook came through with a massive performance in a must-win game. Starting the season 0-4 would have been nearly impossible for the Vikings to come back from. This week, the Vikings are facing a game that may not eliminate them from playoff contention, but would be a major statement win if they can get it.
Cook carried the football 27 times for 130 yards and two touchdowns against Houston. He also caught two passes for 16 yards.
Against the Seahawks, Cook will have to be on his best game once again. He will come through for the Vikings. Cook will rack up another 120 yards and two scores to lead the offense.
With that kind of performance, the Vikings’ offense should open up and be able to pass the ball effectively with the Seahawks focusing on slowing down Cook.
