The Minnesota Vikings are in “The City of Angels” tonight, ready to kick off Week 8 of NFL action against the Los Angeles Rams Thursday night football. The Vikings (5-1) are looking to bounce back from their last-second loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 7. The Rams (2-4) are undoubtedly hoping for a little midseason magic to bounce back from what has been a disappointing season become in the early corridors.

Minnesota enters tonight’s game as a 2.5-point road favorite with FanDuel Sportsbook. Quick glances, as the teams’ data alone makes people think it’s a solid line. However, this evening could be fruitful for the underdog Rams. Wide receiver Cooper Kupp will return to action, and Puka Nacua will also see the field.

Given the week-to-week nature of the NFL, you can never discount a team even if the data says otherwise. That said, the Vikings have been cruising for most of the season and I don’t expect them to lose two games in a row.

Give me the Minnesota Vikings over the Los Angeles Rams, 28-23

This is what your open topic is for Thursday night football. As always, be kind to each other and in all things… Go Bills!
