Monday Night Football Week 7: 49ers at Vikings

The San Francisco 49ers were shocked last week by the Cleveland Browns, but they still sport one of the NFL’s best rushing attacks and best defenses. They should be able to keep this game close and lower scoring against the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings just need to let it fly in the passing game and try to catch the 49ers sleeping. This game has the potential to be a fun one.

MNF Week 7

San Francisco 49ers (5-1) at Minnesota Vikings (2-3)
Kickoff: 6:15 PM MT on Oct. 23, 2023
Location: U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota

My Prediction

In partnership with DraftKings Sportsbook, we will get to do a lot of picks this year. Straight-up, against the spread, and over/under picks. While I think the 49ers are clearly the better team here, I think the Vikings make a game of it. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if they somehow won this game outright. I played it conservative on the pick’em, but did go with the Vikings to cover here.
