The 3-4 Minnesota Vikings are taking on the 5-2 Baltimore Ravens. Kene Nwangwu started the second half off with a bang as he went 98 yards for a kick-off return touchdown.

Nwangwu hasn't gotten much playing time this season. The fourth-round pick of this year's draft is a running back who sits behind Dalvin Cook.

The Vikings are in second place in their division. They have a long way to go if they want to catch up to the Green Bay Packers who are 7-1 on the year. Green Bay doesn't look like they're going to slow down and their track record shows that they usually don't.

Baltimore is currently in first place by a game over the Cincinnati Bengals. They are down in this one 24-10. If they want a chance to win they're going to have to figure it out and figure it out quickly.

Baltimore's division is arguably the best in football and one loss could very well be the deciding factor of the team who gets into the playoffs and the team who misses it. The Vikings are going to be doing the same thing as they are going to have to win almost every game from here on out if they want a chance to win their division.

Nwangwu got the second half started off right and the Vikings have to be excited with the way they're playing.
