2012 NFL Schedule: Vikings head home, host Cardinals in Week 7 clash

The Minnesota Vikings are back home this week after a tough loss to the Redskins and will try to get right against a reeling Cardinals team. Minnesota lost, 38-26, to Washington and fought hard to get back into the game in the second half before Robert Griffin III slammed the door. The team will try to keep building on its surprising 4-2 start with a win over Arizona.

The Cardinals started the season 4-0 with impressive wins over Seattle and New England, but Arizona has lost two straight games to St. Louis and Buffalo. The Cardinals are going through quarterback issues and have possibly the worst offensive line in the NFL. The Vikings' pass rush should be looking forward to a productive game.
