    Guy looked explosive as a rookie, but coming off a torn ACL, only 4 games played last season, and the addition of Kirk Cousins, give me the under all day long.

    Hopefully that injury didn't mess his career up. He has power but his cuts and speed were the things that made him most dangerous. You just never know with those types of injuries if they will be the same.

    Unfortunately, that is the risk that you take with these kind of props.

    No different than betting Green Bay to win the division and then Aaron Rodgers breaks his collarbone in week 5 screwing you for the rest of the season.

    Guy should easily carry the over if healthy.

    Reports are are good on his return.

    I’d rather take the Vikings team total wins over 10 just in case.

    Cook was red flagged medically coming out of college, why he dropped to the 2nd round, Minnesota also has multiple running backs than can carry the load and Cook has had issues with fumbles. I think the under is a good bet.

    Big time talent. Would stay away from it due to the ACL. I see Dalvin having a nice season. Take him in your fantasy leagues.

    A lot of steam locally on Cook

    Addition of Cousins means more 3rd down conversations, more rushes

    I'd look to Vikings run performances of 09 w Favre at QB for comparison

    If he plays 13 games the over hits

    Elliot is a smart runner tho (He runs low to the ground with great vision) - cook running style is kinda reckless

    It will boil down to his health. He will get the touches. Not helping his cause is the fact that Cousins is a garbage qb. I wouldn't touch it because I don't see much value on either side.

    Brady won a SB vs Atl with no weapons. Cousins apologists need to admit that he is trash and move on. His deal in Minny ended any chance they had of making a SB.

    Would you say he’s a upgrade from Keenum?

    True...and his health is a huge part of the value on the under

    Cousins is better at standing in the pocket and making difficult throws while Keenum is better at evading pressure and keeping plays alive.

    One of the most important stat lines that is contributing to the surge of Kirk Cousins hype among fans of the Vikings and other teams with a question mark at quarterback is his consistency in the passing game. For three straight years, Kirk Cousins has passed for over four thousand yards. On the other hand, Keenum has yet to record a four thousand yard season

    Not a real great argument considering Keenum only started 1 season for a team not coached by Jeff Fisher. Had Keenum started all 16 games last season instead of 14 he breaks 4000 yds.

    I'm not sold on Keenum being anything special but you aren't winning in playoffs with Cousins at qb. Factor in that albatross of a contract and Minny is screwed for years.

    Vikings well balance team - cousin doesn’t need to throw 30x a game

    Seems like taking unders on RBs in all of these props could be a winning strategy

    Teams passing more, RBs constantly banged up, teams also using more RB rotations

    The line is probably lower because of this but still...id never be comfortable betting an Over. One bad or even decent injury that knocks them out for a few weeks and you lose
