This time, the ones from Minnesota head to London to take on the Saints, two NFC wild card hopefuls, to open Sunday's NFL Week 4 slate. 

The Vikings just eked out a win over the division-rival Lions in Week 3, holding onto a four-point lead late in the game to seal the win and moving on to a 2-1 record early in the season. Kirk Cousins has had quite the go of it early in 2022 under new head coach Kevin O'Connell: Cousins washed away a forgettable "Monday Night Football" performance against the Eagles the a bounce-back win.

The Saints are dealing with plenty of issues of their own. After a Week 1 win over the Falcons, New Orleans has dropped two in a row, including a loss to the hapless Panthers in Week 3. Jameis Winston has been trending in the opposite direction to Cousins: The veteran passer threw two more interceptions on Sunday, bringing his very early season total up to five through three games.
