Vikings at Seahawks picks: Rain in Seattle? Aaron Jones to the rescue
Members of the Pioneer Press sports staff who cover the Vikings forecast Sunday’s game in Seattle:
DANE MIZUTANI
Vikings 23, Seahawks 17: There’s rain in the forecast, which could make pushing the ball downfield challenging for the Vikings. Luckily for them, Aaron Jones appears to be finding his groove.
JOHN SHIPLEY
Vikings 22, Seahawks 13: Vikings are rolling but none of these are gimmes. Still, hard to pretend Minnesota hasn’t staked a legitimate claim on being an elite team in 2024.
CHARLEY WALTERS
Vikings 21, Seahawks 17: Against Seattle’s shutdown secondary, Minnesota QB Sam Darnold spends the afternoon handing off to running back Aaron Jones, who at age 30 remains resilient.
