If these bold predictions come true, tonight’s TNF showdown between the Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings could be must-watch football.

Tonight, the Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings go toe-to-toe in what could be one of the greatest Thursday Night Football games we’ve ever seen. Yes, you read that right — we may actually have a TNF matchup worth watching.

In fact, coming into this season, this looked like one of the best matchups of the 2018 NFL campaign. It had the feel of an early look at the NFC Championship Game. After the Vikings’ Week 3 disaster against the Buffalo Bills, though, people are starting to wonder if they’re worth the buzz that surrounded them throughout the offseason.

As for the Rams, they’ve been stellar through three games. Not only do they head into Week 4 in possession of a 3-0 record, but they’ve done it in dominant fashion. Los Angeles has steamrolled every opponent they’ve run into up to this point, including a 34-0 shellacking of the Arizona Cardinals a couple of weekends ago.

So what can we expect tonight? I don’t know. I’m here to make bold predictions, not realistic ones.

With that in mind, let’s dive right into my bold predictions for the Rams-Vikings TNF game. It’s going to be a great one, even if none of these glances into an unlikely future actually come true.
