Patriots at Vikings Depth Chart Preview 2022
How will the Vikings rebound from an absolute drubbing from the Cowboys? They face the best head coach in recent memory and a top heavy team that is firing on all cylinders defensively, but is a mess on offense. Will our Vikings be able to prevent the first losing streak of the season?

Line: Vikings -2.5 (66% of bets on Vikings)
Super Sim Calculated Line: Vikings -4.5
Prediction: Patriots 23, Vikings 13
Give me the team that is better in the trenches, and right now that is the Patriots. While their OL also has some problems, I am afraid that their defense can do similar things that the Cowboys can. While their pass rush isn't as ferocious, Belichick's unit is great at covering up the pass game with their 6 DB sets. Running the ball at them is a must. On offense, NE should be spamming the ball to their RBs after seeing what Pollard was able to do. Their passing offense is flat-out bad and they will be in big trouble if they fall behind. In the end, I think the Vikings' injuries and short break between games will cost them this one.
Any thoughts?
