This week's spread suggests a throwing game script for the Vikings, who are -4.5-point underdogs.Given their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics, the projections expect the Minnesota Vikings to run on 37.8% of their downs: the 2nd-lowest rate among all teams this week.The projections expect the Vikings to be the 3rd-slowest paced defense in the NFL (adjusted for context) right now, leading opposing offenses to average 29.50 seconds per play.This game will be played in a dome—which means no wind, higher pass volume, higher touchdown potential, and increased passing efficiency.While Jordan Mason has accounted for 57.3% of his team's carries in games he has played this year, the projections expect him to be much less involved in Minnesota's running game in this contest at 40.5%.
