Saints Face Key Injuries
Going upwardly against Vikings’ QB Kirk Cousins, who place upward 458 yards the last clip he was inwards London, the Saints feature a disadvantage. Safety Marcus Maye is out and although New siege of Orleans has additional strength on defense, his absence seizure will live felt.
The offense is in trouble, with broad receiving system Michael doubting Thomas and guard Andrus Peat out. Running endorse Alvin Kamara is also questionable. The good word for the offensive is that wide-cut receiver Chris Olave proved finally hebdomad that he tin break up up the slack without any problems. He’s having a solid state season, pick upward 268 receiving yards crosswise the first-class honours degree triplet weeks.
It’s not the likes of the Vikings are overwhelming higher-up this harden – they only when scarce survived against the Motown Lions utmost week. It took a strong fourth-quarter travail and a little chance to get over a 24-14 shortage to win the game.
However, MN is inward a improve position offensively and defensively. The Saints feature taken ii losses, still with the asterisk powerfulness that is equitation the bench today. DraftKings and FanDuel springiness the Vikings -180 to the Saints’ +152, and there’s small reason to look the Saints to win.
The 3.5-point scatter on an over/under of around 42 isn’t often of an option. The Vikings should overlook by at least ane TD. Taking the over, which has bang eight times in Minnesota’s endure 11, seems safe.
Da Bears Spend Da Clarence Day In New Jersey
The Chicago Bears (2-1) are taking a line of business activate to MetLife Stadium inwards New island of Jersey today to face the New York Giants (2-1). Both teams feature given surprises already this season, including New York’s red ink to the Dallas Cowboys.

The Bears are slithering further, too, on offense. They are dealing with several injuries that will wallop their ability today. The Giants feature had their own, including Sterling Shepard, but they feature also been able-bodied to stay put at home. This offers improve chances to heal.
These ii teams are well-matched to human face to each one other today. It’s sledding to be a tight, close-scoring contest, but the -145 Giants win at home. The over/under is around 38.5 and, regular though it’s already low, the under is to a greater extent potential to hit. It’s done so inwards iv of the in conclusion quintuplet New House of York has played against Chicago, and cipher indicates a blow-out is coming today.
Bucs Bend To The Chiefs
Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady testament receive once again for the foremost time since Super Bowl LV. This could be unity of the shoemaker's last times they share the same field.
Mahomes is come out to show something today for Kaw River City. After a vituperative describe inward the Kansas City Star accused him of beingness a “selfish” player, he wants to set the track record straight. On the other side, Diamond Jim and the Buccaneers are representing Tampa Bay inwards the viewing of the desolation left wing by Hurricane Ian.
The Bucs stifled the Chiefs when they faced turned inwards Super Bowl LV and are 8-6 inward this matchup overall. However, Mathew B. Brady has been having some difficulties lately, on and away the field, that are changing the tide.
