The Vikings will be hoping to build on their Week 2 victory over the Detroit Lions. That 26-16 win will have restored a lot of the confidence lost in Minnesota's season opener, which was a nightmare start to the season.

Today's game against the Chargers has a lot of divisional implications, and Minnesota will be urgent not to let themselves slip backwards into any kind of performance like their 3-20 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 1.

The Chargers meanwhile will be looking to bounce back from a defeat to the Cincinnati Bengals last week, and know how important it is not to slip to 1-2 this early in the season if they want to be competing for the division title.

Week 3 is already crunch time for a number of NFL teams. Earlier this week on NFL Thursday Night Football, the New York Giants faced a massive game against the Washington Redskins. The Giants were 0-2 after their opening two games, and they knew if they slipped to 0-3 their season was almost guaranteed to be over before it had even got going.

The 1-1 Washington Redskins were hoping to move to 2-1 to compete with the NFC East division leading Dallas Cowboys, and at the same time all but eliminate one of their main rivals from contention for the postseason.

But when the push came to shove the Giants showed that they are still alive and kicking. New York came out of the blocks fast, building a 12-0 lead after the first quarter, and it was a lead they would refuse to give up despite some strong pressure from the Redskins in the fourth.

The Giants had lost their opening two games after getting themselves into winning positions and some must have thought they were heading the same way on Thursday. However, they finally held on to a second half lead and clinched a 32-21 win, with the highlight being a 30 yard Odell Beckham Jr touchdown catch.

The Redskins must have seen how the Giants collapsed under pressure in the fourth quarter against the Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Falcons in Weeks 1 and 2. But even though the Redskins pushed hard in the fourth, scoring 15 points in the final quarter, the Giants responded to the pressure and recorded 14 points themselves to keep themselves in front.
