Pick it in Seattle!

This game is a window into the future. If the Vikings are a wild card team, they will be on the road to play a good team. Tonight's game will likely determine whether they will be a wild card team or win the North.
If they lose tonight, they will likely be one and done in the playoffs. Should they win tonight, they have a very good chance to be the NFCN champs. At least that's the way I see it.
If this game is predictable, the Vikings lose. But none of these games, or this years Vikings, are predictable.
My brain says the Hawks win. My heart says the Vikings win.
Vikings 27
Hawks  24.

-  IMO this is when and where Kubiak and Co. can have a major influence.

 
- As a Defensive specialist can Zimmer improve the secondary and run defense?

Wilson has never lost to a Viking team 5-0 lifetime.

BYE week helps but Vikings come up short 24-23.

R Wilson is usually better than K Cousins.
I don't have ANY faith on the Vikings defense to get off the field on 3rd down (or 4th down)
I've seen the Vikings come out flat too many times in games like this.

I expect the Vikings dig a hole early and not be able to get caught up.

I really hope I'm wrong, Vikings 17, Seahags 31

I know they aint the Legion of Boom anymore, but Russel Wilson is 5-0 vs the Vikings.  He'd be league MVP if it wasn't for the kid out of Baltimore. 

I dont trust our D in this one, nor Zimmer coming out of a Bye. 

Hope I am totally wrong:

Seattle 27
Vikings 26

Edit: Post A. Thielen news:

Seattle: 28
Vikings: 19

Hope I'm totally wrong (again)

Well it was a tough evening for us Viking fans, and these two "pickers" expected as much.  Not really an a$$ whooping by any means, but the Vikes got pushed around on defense, and the offense failed to get Cook and the running game going again.
Looks like purplefaithful and Hidalgo are this week's "Pick It" winners.  Good job gents, and hopefully the Vikes get a nice rebound game next Sunday.SKOL!
