The 6-2 Minnesota Vikings are looking for their seventh win of the season when they take on the 2-7 Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday afternoon.

Sunday's game marks the beginning of three consecutive road games for the Vikings and the second of three consecutive games against the AFC South. In week three, the Vikings beat the Houston Texans 34-7 in week three and the Indianapolis Colts 21-13 last week in week nine.

It's also the second game for tight end T.J. Hockenson, who the Vikings brought back last Sunday against the Colts. He only played in 45% of the snaps with 33, a number which should grow on Sunday. With the second level of the Jaguars defense being suspect, Hockenson could have a huge game.
