Pioneer Press staffers who cover the Vikings take a stab at predicting the outcome of tonight’s game against the Lions at U.S. Bank Stadium.
Dane Mizutani
Lions 31, Vikings 27: Max Brosmer will look much better than he did in the first start of his career. It won’t be enough to overcome an opponent fighting for its playoff life.
Jace Frederick
Vikings 27, Lions 24: The Lions just suffered a devastating defeat that likely ended their playoff hopes. Recovering from that on a short week is no easy feat.
John Shipley
Lions 19, Vikings 13: Max Brosmer got the Vikings past the Giants last weekend, but the Lions are still playing for something, albeit unlikely, and Detroit will do everything it can to rattle the rookie QB.
Charley Walters
Lions 21, Vikings 10: So, the Vikings’ season comes down to two nondescript games against the Lions and Packers. Sad, really.
