The Minnesota Vikings could force Daniel Jones into tough decisions if Brian Flores exploits the Indianapolis Colts' pass-blocking issues.

Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen confirmed that Daniel Jones will start against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 7. Allison Koehler of The Viking Age argues that Indianapolis' struggling pass protection provides an ideal opportunity for Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores to exploit. Jones has suffered 15 sacks in six games, including six sacks and two interceptions during a 26-20 loss to the Tennessee Titans.
The unbeaten 5-0 Vikings enter following a bye week, featuring edge rushers Dallas Turner and Andrew Van Ginkel. Koehler notes that while running back Jonathan Taylor offers a counter to aggressive blitz schemes, building an early lead would allow Minnesota to pressure Jones into predictable throwing situations.
