Will's pick: Seahawks 38, Vikings 35
I've been impressed with the Vikings' offense over the past two weeks, particularly when it comes to the emergence of rookie wide receiver Justin Jefferson. He looks like the real deal and could be in for another impressive performance on Sunday Night Football. Like most people, I think this is going to be a shootout considering what we've seen from these two defenses. I just trust Wilson more than Kirk Cousins to get the job done late in a close game.
Last week's pick: Texans 34, Vikings 24. Season record: 2-2

Live updates:
Fourth Quarter
Vikings 26, Seahawks 21
7:08: The Vikings just pulled off a 15-play, 97-yard drive to retake the lead in Seattle. It was capped off with Thielen's second touchdown catch of the day (his sixth on the season).
Third Quarter
Seahawks 21, Vikings 19
3:39: Huge response from Cousins after two turnovers. He leads the Vikings down the field and throws a touchdown pass to Adam Thielen. The two-point conversion is unsuccessful. Vikings need their defense to get back to what they did in the first half.
Seahawks 21, Vikings 13
8:02: All of sudden, this is going very poorly. A Kirk Cousins fumble led to an easy touchdown to DK Metcalf. Then a Cousins interception leads to a touchdown run by Chris Carson. Yikes. That's 21 points in just 1:53 of game time.
Vikings 13, Seahawks 7
9:55: This game has taken an unfortunate turn for the Vikings. First Dalvin Cook pulls up limping and heads to the locker room, and then the Seahawks put together their first impressive drive on offense. Wilson caps it with a 19-yard TD pass to Will Dissly.
Second Quarter
Vikings 13, Seahawks 0
0:10: The Vikings get another field goal right before the half. Cousins took a shot to Adam Thielen on the previous play but it was defended well by Shaquille Griffin.
2:00: James Lynch gets a sack in his first career game! Great thing to see from the fourth-round rookie out of Baylor, who was inactive for the first four games. The Vikings' defense has been impressive.
Vikings 10, Seahawks 0
8:39: The Vikings' second drive started as impressively as their first, but then was quickly spoiled by a holding penalty on Dru Samia and a couple short gains. Dan Bailey's 52-yard field goal makes it 10-0.
First Quarter
3:46: The Vikings get a stop on their first defensive possession, with Ifeadi Odenigbo taking down Russell Wilson for his first sack of the season. Great coverage down the field. The offense is coming back out but is pinned at their own 2 after a great punt.
Vikings 7, Seahawks 0
8:52: The Vikings get on the board first with an impressive opening drive. Kirk Cousins completed passes to four different receivers, including finding Justin Jefferson on fourth down. Dalvin Cook goes in virtually untouched for his seventh rushing TD of the year.
