The Minnesota Vikings (5-7) host the New York Jets (2-10) this afternoon at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis (Radio: AM 1240 WJON, TV: CBS). The kickoff is set for Noon, as the Vikes look to tie last year's win total today against Eric Decker and the New York Jets.

The Jets hold an 8-1 edge in the all-time series, and have won the last seven meetings between the two teams dating back to 1979. The Vikings only win over the Jets was back in 1975, a game played in Minnesota with Bud Grant’s team claiming a 29-21 win.

The Vikings are wrapping up a a three-game home stand and looking for their second straight win after beating the Panthers, 31-13 last Sunday. The Jets are looking to bounce back from a 16-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Monday night.

Today's game will be a reunion between Percy Harvin and his old team, originally drafted by the Vikings in the 1st-round in 2009 -- a year when he was crowned NFL Rookie of the Year. Minnesota traded Harvin to the Seattle Seahawks in 2013, who in turn dealt him to the Jets earlier this season.

The Vikings are 6 point favorites.

Skol Vikings!
