    Lion and Vikings Over 43.5 Easiest Total of the Week

    This line is way too low. Lions D banged up with no Levy, our best defender and a tackling machine. Tulloch is out of shape from missing last year and Ngata is a little banged up. Adrian Peterson should do work. Bridewater should play well too. Also like the Lions to dominate through the air and Abdullah should get in the mix with Calvin, Tate, and Ebron. Each team scores a minimum of 3 tds. Stafford leads us to victory in the end.

    Lions allowed a lot of points in week 1. Vikings figure to run with ap and kill clock.

    Go to espn, look up score from lions @ vikings from last season, check back in.

    Few player changes but majority of the same matchups.

    This. It has nothing to do with racism! Certain ethnicity's are good at certain sports/positions, it really is as simple as that. Certain countries are great at certain sports, it is just the way it is.

    But this year I have to put my faith is Tyrod Taylor, as a bills fan, which is tough, but may god give him strength and allow him to truly become Vick 2.0

    certain countries are better at certain sports because that is what they have grown up playing.

    Lions are my team as well, but they suck. Minny wins.

    You want your qb to run a dog fighting ring?

    Bridgewater is not a natural quarterback and just seems to not look right throwing the ball

    Typical

    Inaccurate
    Good athlete

    The underdog wins most of the time between these two divisional rivals. Take the Lions spread.

    Vikings have won like last 15 of 17 vs Lions at home boys. 2 of those losses coming in the last 4 home games. Detroit has won 3 of last 4 overall vs Vikings..Lions in a must win game here take it over an over-rated Vikings team in a low scoring game...

    Um Detroit shut them out 17-3 in Minny last year without Calvin and Reggie.

    Original poster is correct, this game goes over 43.5

    i have no clue how anyone could be confident in a explosive offensive game here? wasnt this gm a total shit fest last season? im just going off memory and could be wrong but i thought this was a fg fest on one side and the other not scoring much.. ill always respect a zimmer defense and lions d banged up or not no slouches. rushing the ball gonna be the way both teams make their money along with teddy b never take a chance complete a bunch of 4 yard passes ass. obviously it doesnt have to be a shootout as 43.5 kinda low these days but hell 23-20 almost feels like the high side to me..

    im with you tho, i think this one of the tougher games on the whole slate. i tried the whole believing in det thing last week, that looked great till i woke up from my nap (lol). really didnt understand the minny love last week but i do think they gonna be a solid squad. really hard to say here, my only real thought here is in a week 2 after everyone clubbed the books week 1 is that minny prob the play based off them being favs and the foul taste they left in most mouths monday night.

    Vikings O-Line was very average against the 49ers and allowed some easy sacks. I know Detroit don't have Suh anymore but at least Stafford can convert his first downs and find his receivers.
    Very concerning first game for the Vikings even though they are now at home.

    yea i dont disagree with any of that but that kinda the point in the nfl, especially this early. you really have to be cautious about taking away too much from week 1. especially when you consider minny was playing at a historically tough place to win in primetime and against a team that been shit on all off season that still has plenty left on the defensive side. sf controlled that gm with the ground attack, that simply not lions mo and you cant expect that here. teddy be still completed most his passes, id assume they adjust and get him to actually look past the sticks which will allow ap more chances to run if they convert some 3rd downs. like i said i think this a really tough gm and i really dont want any part of it. just as a wek 2 rule of mine it would be minny or nothing based of the line and public perception of both teams after one week. however i think pass is better, especially when you consider how scary lions upcoming schedule is, they really need this win and i did project them better than minny so nothing for me.

    only reason i even chimed in is cause i really dont understand ppl thinking this a slam dunk over.zimmer teams rarely get torched over the top for big plays. last year they played 2 games where neither broke 30 and they only managed 20 in minny. minny gonna run and throw short passes which burns clock, on other side they will make lions earn their scores. honestly under makes far more sense than over here.

    Yeah without a doubt, I did learn the hard way last year that teams like Oakland will suck early on and there's not much that suggest that will change this year, much like Jacksonville. Other teams are capable of bouncing back. But myself like these sort of closer lined games...and especially division games I can't really see myself pulling the trigger.

    Yeah I am normally reserved for overs and unders early myself but I think there are better games to choose from.

    The Lions look like shit again. The offense can't move the ball at all.

    The over may hit just because of the Vikings. This Lions defense is lost out there.
