This match won’t exactly qualify as a high-end contest on the surface, and it’s due to the Atlanta Falcons’ record. The Falcons permit a middling 7.24 yards per target and 72.0 catch percentage to opposing tight ends; they also haven’t encountered many top receivers at the position. Fans can expect Atlanta to lean on the run to shorten the match and sideline Vikings offense.
Bijan Robinson has topped 70% snap share in four straight, and he can deliver a solid 3.37 yards after contact per attempt and 34.1 breakaway percentage for the season. Supporters can have confidence in Robinson and Atlanta’s offensive line. The team is sixth in PFF run blocking grade, and the second-year rusher has cleared his total in 6 of the past seven matches, while averaging 85.7 rushing yards per and 4.8 yards per carry.
MatchPlug Prediction For Minnesota Vikings VS Atlanta Falcons
The Vikings continue to win close matches, and they have a superior coaching staff. In addition, Minnesota knows Kirk Cousins well, and he has turned the ball over six times during the Falcons three-game skid. The Vikings enter Week 14 with a 2-4-1 record against the spread, so expect them to cover today.
Final Prediction: Minnesota Vikings Spread.
