Behind Enemy Lines: We preview Commanders’ Week 9 game with Vikings Wire

We spoke with Vikings Wire managing editor Tyler Forness ahead of this weekend’s game between the Commanders and Vikings.

The Washington Commanders [4-4] host the Minnesota Vikings [6-1] Sunday in a matchup between two of the NFL’s hottest teams.

There are multiple storylines ahead of this game. Minnesota quarterback Kirk Cousins makes his return to Washington for the first since leaving after the 2017 season. Washington quarterback Taylor Heinicke began his NFL career with the Vikings back in 2015. And former Washington offensive coordinator Kevin O’Connell is Minnesota’s head coach.

There are several interesting matchups in this game. How will the Commanders fare against Vikings running back Dalvin Cook and wide receiver Justin Jefferson?

To learn all we could about the 2022 Vikings, we spoke with Vikings Wire managing editor Tyler Forness ahead of Sunday’s game. Tyler gave us outstanding information, and his thoughts on Kirk Cousins sound awfully familiar to Washington fans.
