The line here is beyond bloated. Minnesota has been struggling, but the Vikings are not bad enough to be nine-point underdogs in NFL odds this Sunday. Looks like J.J. McCarthy will return and displace Carson Wentz. Think Kevin O’Connell rues letting Sam Darnold walk?
Vikings fans sure wish they had him at quarterback. Someone has to be able to get the ball to Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. The Lions have dismantled better teams, but this is a division game, and they are usually tense and tight. Take the points.
