MNF

Green Bay @ Minnesota - Line is Minnesota -5 - It is scary how many people are all over the purple bandwagon following Favre's latest miracle. I'm hearing expert after expert call for a blowout in Minnesota tonight. Trent Dilfer, who I think is a really, really good NFL analyst (much better than he ever was at QB) said he could see the Vikings winning tonight by 3 touchdowns. WOW! All this is bad news for the Locks 'fantasy team. We're trailing by 9 points heading into tonight's game and only have the Packers D left to go against Ryan Longwell. Feels like a loss to us. While we don't necessarily see this being a blowout, we certainly see why people like the Vikings here. The Pack defense is not very good. Sure they make some big plays. However, play in and play out, they are exploitable. You don't want an exploitable defense facing Adrian Peterson on MNF. So, it doesn't look like the Vikings will have too much trouble moving the ball or scoring points. Another concern for the Pack is what will Ryan Grant be able to do against that scary run D? We don't think too much. The onus of the offense will fall on Aaron Rodgers right arm. Whether GB can/will stay in this game will be determined by him. We like Rodgers and give him a fighting chance. The special teams here are another wild card. Both teams can break big-time returns and it will be interesting to see if that factors in on this game. At the end of the day, we think Peterson wears out the Pack D, Favre refrains from doing anything stupid and the Vikings cover the line. Take Minny -5 to win 31-24. LOCK IT UP
