5 things to watch for in the Vikings Week 3 game vs. the Raiders

For the second straight season, the Minnesota Vikings will look to rebound from a disappointing effort at Lambeau Field as they head home to U.S. Bank Stadium, to square off against an inferior opponent.

While the Oakland Raiders may possess the same record as the Vikings (1-1), they don’t have a lot of the weapons Minnesota possesses on both sides of the ball, making this Week 3 matchup seem like a cakewalk.

However, the Vikings know about this scenario all too well. After an emotionally draining Week 2 tie in Green Bay last season, they came home to host a Buffalo Bills team they were supposed to destroy.
