The Vikes have a decent pass defense, but Derek Carr is tearing it up
since the bye week. Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree are seeing lots of
the pill and making some plays out wide.
Terry Bridgewater goes tonight despite taking a cheap shot from
Lamarcus Joyner last week (any guesses who was on the defensive
clipboard?) and I suspect Minnesota will try to keep him clean by
pounding the ball with the ageless Adrian Peterson. Oakland know this of
course, and will likely stack the box (they're not that bad against the
run anyway) and that might allow Terry to take the occasional cheeky
shot vertically against an underwhelming Raiders' pass defense.
This could be a good game. I'll give the FG with the rolling Raiders.
Pick: Oakland Raiders -3 @ 2
Pick: 1st TD Amari Cooper @ 9
Pick: Anytime TD Stefon Diggs @ 2.6
