With a 6.5-point advantage, the Vikings are favored in this week's contest, suggesting more of a focus on running than their usual game plan.Windy weather conditions (like the 12-mph being forecasted in this game) generally cause lessened passing efficiency, lower pass volume, and higher run volume.Cam Akers's 3.9 adjusted yards per carry this season represents a noteworthy improvement in his running skills over last season's 2.7 rate.
