Simply put, Minnesota is better than its 3-4 record. However, the Vikings' record is probably going to get worse following Sunday's game. Not only are the Lions simply a better team, they're also the fresher one as they are coming off their bye week. Pick: Lions -8.5; Over 48.5

The Vikings return home full of energy after their upset of the Lions to face a Baltimore team ready to bully them in the trenches.
