Point Spread: 6.50 | -114.00 Minnesota (Away)
Result: Win
Philadelphia (1-0) is coming off a 25-20 win against the New England Patriots on Sunday afternoon. It was far from a perfect performance for the Eagles, but they jumped out to a 16-0 lead and held on for a narrow victory. So does Minnesota (0-1), which lost its season opener 20-17 at home against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Vikings committed three turnovers and had several costly penalties, including one on fourth down that extended a Buccaneers drive and led to a touchdown. We like the Vikings to keep this one close. Remember, there is no bigger reaction in sports than NFL Week 1 overreaction. The Eagles are simply not as good as last year, and the Vikings are not as bad as last week. We like the Vikings to show up and play well tonight.
