Point Spread: 3.00 | -115.00 Minnesota (Home)
Result: Win
Play: Minnesota Vikings
Rating: 8*
The Minnesota Twins will host the Green Bay Packers for an early NFC North showdown Sunday night. It's still unclear whether Shaun Hill or Sam Bradford will start behind center for the Vikes, but I think either will do a good enough job to beat the Packers.
The Vikings' D came through big time with two TDs in a 25-16 win at Tennessee in Week 1 where they trailed 10-0 at halftime. Adrian Peterson managed only 31 yards rushing on 19 carries but we can note that the Vikings are 8-0 ATS in their last eight games after accumulating less than 90 yards rushing in their previous game, so I expect a big bounce back game from Peterson tonight.
The Packers opened the season with a 27-23 victory at Jacksonville. They held the Jaguars to 48 yards rushing but allowed 320 yards through the air. They're 2-5 ATS in their last seven games after allowing more than 250 yards passing in their previous game and I think they'll struggle with Minnesota on both sides of the ball tonight.
