Kinda hoping the Philly line will move a bit to 10.5, but I like that line anyways, to start. Nothing else jumps out at me just yet. Maybe GB/CAR under 37.5, but that's a pretty low total.

Kinda liking Vikes -5.5, even with Purple Jesus out.
The one thing I didn't do last week was look at matchups. Well, Oakland will have trouble scoring points against a very tough run defense (GB game excluded). Also, Taylor's not exactly a rookie, and I expect he'll have a fine day. |

Even without Peterson, Taylor with run over them without hesitation, he just needs to learn to hold on to the ball a bit tighter against a big Oakland frontline. If they get Peterson in the game I think this is a no-brainer to cover the 5.5. Minnesota's coming in with a crush or be mamed attitude, and you have to think they want the W at home right now. I'm in for Minnesota -5.5 on a fine Monday afternoon |

Peterson's out at least a week, probably more.

Yeah, ESPN had it on their site. Guess he tore a ligament.

OK, wagerline had the DET/NYG game open at PK. When I checked it on sportsinteraction.com, it was at Det +3, now wagerline has it at Det +1.5
Weird. I'm not smart enough to know what that means. |

Peterson will be out for more than one week. He tore a ligament in his knee, but not the major one(ACL). Ligament tears are graded from 1 to 3 and his is described as a two plus. His coach seems optimistic he can play this year, but if I was in adrian I would not play for the rest of this season just to be safe.
