The weight will be on carson's shoulders in this game and I doubt he will deliver without the safety blanket of run support in this new offense. AP will have a solid day, and ponder will steadily guide the ship to victory, while oakland's offense struggles mightily.
Prediction:
Vikings:24, Oakland:13
