I think it could look a lot like the Vikings/Jets game if I am being honest. With us being the Vikings in this case. Maybe Caleb will get overwhelmed and have a rough rookie outing with 3 INT's, including a pick six. 

Maybe our offense will break through some resistance from their defense and have their moments in the sun but also some really bad outings that leave you scratching your head and us hanging onto the edge of our seats before 12:30 PM coming down to the wire.

This game against Chicago worries me more than the second game over there against New England. I think Chicago is overachieving a bit at the moment and they're a scrappy team that rallies and compliments each other when needed. 

Just have to be smart on defense. Don't let Moore beat you over the top. Don't let Allen nickel and dime you with his veteran abilities and don't let Kmet get isolated too much over the middle. Nielsen has to do a better job scheming and coaching this defense though.
