NFL Week 6 Picks & Predictions: Vikings vs. Dolphins

Points will be easy to come by in this inter-conference matchup. Two of the worst defenses in the league will square off in a game that should go over.

The Dolphins come into this matchup short-handed at the quarterback position. With injuries to both Tua Tagovailoa and Teddy Bridgewater, Skylar Thompson will get his first NFL start. He struggled when forced into action against the Jets, but a matchup with a struggling Vikings defense could be just what he and the Dolphin offense needs to get going.

Minnesota’s offense has a similar advantage with a Dolphin defense that just gave up 40 points to the Jets. Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota passing attack should have a field day against the last ranked pass defense per DVOA.

Minnesota should be the play on the spread but with Cousins on the road, it’s tough to take over a field goal.

Lean Vikings -3.5, o45.5
