The season opener for the Vikings was an easy (23-7) win against the Green Bay Packers. Kirk Cousins and Justin Jefferson were the stars of the game, producing excellent numbers for the team in an easy win. Game 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles resulted in a humiliating 24-7 loss. Kirk was good again that day but to no avail. Game 3 saw Minnesota win a tough (28-24) game against the Detroit Lions.
Once again, Kirk Cousins showed his class with some great numbers.
For the Saints, their journey so far has not been as fruitful. They started off with a narrow (27-26) victory over the Atlanta Falcons. The next two games were back-to-back defeats against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (10-20) and the Carolina Panthers (22-14). New Orleans have struggled to find their offensive rhythm and injury to Michael Thomas is even worse news for the team.
Jamie Winston is also doubtful to start the game for the Saints.

Minnesota Vikings vs.New Orlean Saints: Pick
The Saints won't be able to take advantage of their home field as the game is being played at a neutral venue. With injuries and uncertainty to key players, the onus is totally on the likes of Pete Werner and Marcus Maye to provide stability at the back. However, this is a situation that Kirk Cousins will try to exploit as he has already picked up close to 800 passing yards in just three games.
Pick: Kirk Cousins Total Passing Yard Over 253.5 (-115)
Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans Saints: Prediction
Looking at the odds, the injury situation, and the current form of both teams, it is safe to say that Minnesota has the upper hand. Without a prominent wide receiver and a regular quarterback, New Orleans would find themselves in deep water.
