EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — The easy part of Minnesota's schedule is over. Now come the real tests for the 5-0 Vikings.
After beating up on the likes of Cleveland, Detroit and St. Louis in their best start since 2003, the Vikings face a tough stretch before the bye week. Baltimore comes to town on Sunday before trips to Pittsburgh and Green Bay.
Counting home wins over San Francisco and Green Bay, the first five opponents on Minnesota's schedule have a combined record of 7-17.
Their next three opponents are a combined 8-6.
