Minnesota Vikings vs St Louis Rams NFL Predictions Week 5

Minnesota Vikings vs. St Louis Rams NFL Predictions Week 5: After their impressive performance against the Green Bay Packers last Monday night, the undefeated (4-0) Minnesota Vikings [-10½] travel to Edward Jones Dome to take on the winless, sports betting odds underdog (0-4) St. Louis Rams [+10½].

This Vikes-Rams NFC showdown has an opening kickoff set for 1 PM ET (10 AM PT) and it will be broadcasted live on FOX. The OVER/UNDER for this, Minnesota Vikings vs St Louis Rams NFL Predictions Week 5 game has been projected at a combined total of 40 points scored at day’s end.

For the visiting Vikings, Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre (85/125, 837 yards, 8 TDs, 1 INT, QB-Rating: 104.6) has left very little doubters and skeptics that thought brining him out of retirement two months ago was a mistake. The 19-year-old vet has not only proven that he can still play, but he has shown the world he has plenty left in the old tank.

"(Favre's) still got great command of the football," Vikings coach Brad Childress said. "Whether command is touch, or velocity, or being able to pump it-let it go, he still has great command of the football."

Coming into this game, this will be Favre’s first NFL action in the forties, as he left the 30s-club behind on Saturday when he turned the big 4-0. "My arm feels great," said Favre. "It didn't feel very good last year. I'm not going to make excuses… But my arm feels a lot better and I think it's showing."

For the Rams, they really don’t stand much of a chance against this team on either side of the ball, as their 5-31 record since 2007 will likely take another hit. St. Louis gameplan for this game is very simple: hold on to dear life, here comes the Vikings "D" and the Adrian Peterson Hurricane! "We have to give ourselves a chance. We're not doing that," Rams fullback Mike Karney said.
