Will Vikings Massive D-Lineman Linval Joseph Get A Chance To Hit Aaron Rodgers Like He Hit Derek Carr? [VIDEO]

At 6'4" and 329 pounds Minnesota Vikings defensive lineman Linval Joseph is a massive man. His play this season has been key to the success the Vikings have been able to enjoy this season. A guy his size is tough to block, and he has not made it easy for opposing offenses to game plan for. He certainly didn't make it easy on the Raiders last week and made Derek Carr pay the price at least once.

What Vikings fans probably want to know is whether he can do it to Aaron Rodgers come Sunday.

Green Bay's running game has been awful so the Vikings know the Packers will have to pass often. So far this season the Packers offensive line has given up 22 sacks (13th highest in the league) and has let Rodgers get hit 51 times (No. 16). They also now know that Rodgers has been banged up as well.

So--will Joseph get to Rodgers this week?

Chances are good that he will. Green Bay will pass early and often giving Joseph and he est of the defense many opportunities to get to him. With the Packers offensive line not playing particularly well the Vikings will look to do whatever possibly to disrupt them and keep them from getting into a groove.

Should they do so--yes, Joseph will sandwich Rodgers at least once come Sunday.
