Key Sunday match up...
Vikings RT Marcus Johnson versus Bills LE Chris Kelsay and Bills LE Ryan Denney.
Why both players?
Because each has three sacks for the Bills. Neither veteran has a strong track record as a pass rusher. But they certainly have the numbers so far this season. Johnson improved last week, after he was schooled by Carolina's Julius Peppers.
But Johnson's performance against Kelsay and Denney will be a key for the Vikings. The Vikings need to exploit one of the Bills' weaknesses, run defense.
Although their defense is ranked 11th, the Bills' run defense is just 21st. Former Gopher Laurence Maroney had 86 rushing yards in the season opener against the Bills, while veteran Corey Dillon racked up 73.
