Minnesota Vikings @ Dallas Cowboys (October 21, 3:15PM CST)
Cowboys are going to force Jackson to beat them
Time: 3:15PM CST
TV: Fox
Line: Dallas by 9.5
Scouts Inc.:
RB Adrian Peterson is coming off his 224-yard, three touchdown performance last week and looks like one of the more special rookies to come along in some time. Dallas is coming off a loss in a big game the Patriots at home last weekend and even though they did not perform as they would have liked, it is just one game and they need to come back this week and show they are still one of the best teams in the NFL. Plus, Minnesota is still very much alive in Wild Card discussions in the not so impressive NFC. Dallas' pass defense struggled last week, but should be able to regain some confidence this week versus Minnesota QB Tarvaris Jackson who struggled last week despite their road win in Chicago.

i think dallas wins 41-17
peterson takes advantage of the boys' poor tackling for two touchdowns (1 on a sweep and 1 on a check down pass)

Dallas wins but does not cover 9.5. Minny is a running team and will control the clock but dallas has way too much talent to lose.

-9.5 is a lot, on the road, against ANY team. <--- I'm an idiot. Apparently they play at home yet again.
What a weird line.
They "should" win by that many for sure, but....that's quite a bit.

I think it's based off of our amazing pass offense, and Minny's horrendous pass defense.
btw, we have a horrendous pass defense too!

Wasn't -10 the spread against Buffalo?

I would like to also say that they aren't on the road this week. The game is in Dallas.
