Eagles at Vikings live stream: How to watch, TV channel, date, time
Both the Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings sit at 3-2, and – though each of them play in different divisions – their matchup Sunday is significant for each cannot afford to drop a game and potentially fall behind in their respective quests for division titles.
The Vikings have been inconsistent, alternating between victories and losses in each of their first five weeks. Philadelphia, meanwhile, has won two in a row after they had dropped games in Weeks 2 and 3, but this tilt in Minnesota could be invaluable. This is the first contest of a three-game road trip that ends with the Cowboys (3-2) and Bills (4-1), so getting started on the right foot and building momentum is paramount.

The Vikings typically go as their quarterback, Kirk Cousins, goes. In losses, Cousins has completed 60.3 % of his passes for an average of 6.8 yards a reception with one touchdown and two picks, giving him a QB rating of 73.3. In victories, those numbers are astronomically better, as he had completed 77.6 % of throws for an average of 10 yards a catch with four scores and no interceptions, with a QB rating of 131.2.
The Eagles, in their first four games, generated three sacks. Last week against the Jets, the devoured New York’s offensive line for 10. If Philadelphia can compete with a much better Viking offensive line, there could be chances to get to Cousins, since he holds the ball longer than any quarterback in the league. His average time of snap to throw of 3.07 seconds is highest in the NFL.
