Buffalo arrive at U.S. Bank Stadium as the NFL's hottest team, riding a three-game win streak that included routing Baltimore 36-10 and winning one-score shootouts at Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Minnesota is no pushover: the Vikings won two of their last three, edging Indianapolis 16-10 and handling New Orleans 23-13, with the lone blemish a narrow 19-15 defeat to Detroit.

Head to head

With no recent head-to-head meetings on record, this is a collision of trajectories: a Bills offence humming at 35.3 points per game across the streak against a Vikings defence that has conceded just 14.0 per game over the same three games.

Watchlist
  • Josh Allen — 3,668 passing yards, 25 touchdowns against 10 interceptions, plus 579 rushing yards this season.
  • Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy — 11 touchdowns but 12 interceptions, so every possession matters.
  • James Cook III (1,621 rushing yards, 12 scores) against Justin Jefferson (84 catches, 1,048 receiving yards) in a showcase of heavyweight weapons.
