Skinny Post: Vikings Face Measuring Stick Game Against Panthers
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — This is a measuring stick game at its finest.
The Vikings are headed to Carolina to take on the Panthers, a team that went 15-1 in 2015, claimed the NFC Championship and has won 14 home games in a row (including playoffs).
Minnesota sits at 2-0 and is one of seven unbeaten teams left in the NFL. The Panthers are 1-1.
Although Carolina lost in Super Bowl 50 and were limited to 10 points, the Panthers have averaged 32.3 points per game during their win streak in Charlotte.
Minnesota, meanwhile, has a streak of its own going. The Vikings have won five straight regular-season games dating back to last season, the longest current streak in the NFL.
