Nevertheless, quarterback Kirk Cousins played like the mega-buck player that he is, as he passed for 422 yards and three touchdowns without an interception on 36-of-50 completions. But whatever it was that Cousins did for his team, the Vikings\u2019 defense wasted it, as Minnesota allowed Rams signal-Caller Jared Goff have 456 passing yards and six touchdown throws. Four different Rams receivers scored those six touchdowns, showing just how lost Minnesota was against the pass in that contest. So far this season, the Vikings are 23<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">rd<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> against the pass with 277.5 passing yards allowed per game. It hasn\u2019t been this bad defensively for the Vikings since Mike Zimmer took over as the team\u2019s head coach, but at least he has the offense to cover most of the mistakes of the team\u2019s stop unit. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Vikings, who are fifth in passing yards, are 4-5-1 ATS in their last 10 road games.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Betting on the Philadelphia Eagles (2-2)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Eagles failed again in their attempt to win consecutive games this season after suffering a 23-23 overtime loss to the Tennessee Titans. One thing that the Eagles have to improve on is their pass protection. Quarterback Carson Wentz went 33 of 50 and finished with 348 passing yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions, but he was sacked four times for a loss of 33 yards and was also hit 11 times by Tennessee\u2019s defense. The Vikings\u2019 defense is in a rut, but the Eagles can\u2019t afford to give Minnesota as much as a glimpse of hole on its offensive line. The Eagles are also \u00a0getting solid numbers from their tight ends, especially of late. After rookie Dallas Goedert had 73 rushing yards and a touchdown in a win over Indianapolis Colts back in Week 3, it was Zach Ertz\u2019s turn on Sunday to explode, as the veteran finished with 112 receiving yards on 10 catches. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Eagles are 3-1 ATS in their last four home games.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Writer\u2019s Prediction <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minnesota wins, 26-23.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/signup\">Click here to sign up and make your NFL Week 5 picks<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/football\/nfl\">Already a Member?
