Major
(NFL) Pittsburgh vs. Minnesota,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -115.00 Minnesota (Home)
Result: Win
One of the best under-the-radar suspensions/injuries ends this week. The Minnesota Vikings will get fullback Jerome Felton back from a three-game suspension this week, which could provide a major jolt to their running game. Adrian Peterson averaged 6.9 yards per carry with Felton on the field last season, 4.6 yards per carry without him and only 4.1 in the first three games this season in his absence.

Felton earned a Pro Bowl berth as he paved the way for Peterson's 2,097-yard season in 2012, and at the start of this season, Peterson admitted he's been trying to turn too many of his runs into big gains, rather than hitting the holes that are there. But the Vikings' offensive line has struggled, too, and with Felton there to clear the way for Peterson, things might get simpler for the reigning NFL MVP.

Pittsburgh is legitimately bad. Their terrible OL got worse when they lost Maurkice Pouncey. Key players on offense and defense are ageing. Clearly they miss Mike Wallace the big play threat who bolted in offseason.
