Tampa Bay Buccaneers:
The Tampa Bay Bucs are struggling this year, and it’s not much of a surprise they are 2-4 going into Week 8. They lost last week at home against the New Orleans Saints, 35-28. It was actually a pretty exciting game to watch for those who saw it, and it would have been a big divisional win for them if they would have pulled it off.

Minnesota Vikings:
The Minnesota Vikings on the other hand are having a pretty phenomenal year, at least record wise. They are a solid 5-2 going into Week 8, and easily could be 6-2 after this game. Their defense has been playing pretty solid along with their running game, in particular with Adrian Peterson. It’s been an exciting year for Vikings fans thus far, especially with all the devastating injuries their great players suffered towards the latter part of last year.

Game Prediction:
This Thursday Night Football Game will be highlighting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Minnesota Vikings. I believe the Vikings defense and running game will be too much to handle for the Bucs. Unless Tampa Bay can create several turnovers, I don’t see them having much of a chance winning this game. I predict the Vikings to win, beat the point spread, and I take the under.
