The Minnesota Vikings head into their Week 3 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals with some major questions around the health of their playmakers. While they are going to be down their franchise quarterback in J.J. McCarthy, there are some on defense that are up in the air.
The team’s health is going to be vital to their success, but the Bengals are also limping into this matchup.
If the team can get healthier on defense, then they should be able to overwhelm a Bengals offense that is missing their own quarterback, Joe Burrow. They still boast Ja’Marr Chase, who will be a unique problem, but the pressure they get on Jake Browning will be the difference as to whether the Vikings are able to handle this game with Carson Wentz starting for them or not.
Here is how to watch the Vikings’ Week 3 matchup with the Bengals.
