Week 7 opens for Minnesota at home, and the Vikings are a 6.5-point favorite for a reason. They are 5-0, they are rested after a bye, and they host a 2-4 Indianapolis team that fired its general manager last week.

Minnesota has been the steadier team all season, and the bye week only helps a 5-0 team at home. Indianapolis has to travel north and solve a Vikings team that has not lost yet.

Betting angle

Vikings -6.5 (-110). Lay the points with the unbeaten home team against a struggling road team in transition. Minnesota wins this game by a touchdown more often than it wins it by a field goal.

Watch Sunday at noon CT from Minnesota.
