Philly got some help last week with Dallas losing at home. The two teams are now tied atop the NFC East at 3-2. The Eagles are an interesting team in the NFC right now, having been up and down.
Minnesota is also 3-2 but find themselves tied at the bottom of the NFC North standings. They have not lost a home game this season and as long as they keep that up they will be in the race.
Philadelphia Eagles
After a spirited Thursday night win over Green Bay the Eagles got a layup last week against the Jets at home. They did what they were supposed to do, getting up early and then cruising for an easy win.

They did score 31 points but I would have liked to see the offense be more efficient. They got one score on an interception for a touchdown from Nathan Gerry and another on a fumble recovery by Orlando Scandrick.
Carson Wentz has not thrown an interception in the last three games but his numbers have been ordinary. Even in the Green Bay win where he tossed 3 TD passes he did not break even 200 yards through the air. They need more from him, or they will.
Philadelphia has the stingiest defense in the NFL against the run – just 63ypg. That is going to be critical for them in this one as Minnesota loves to run the ball with Dalvin Cook.
The defense has been soft against the pass which could be a problem against the Vikings even though Kirk Cousins is much maligned for his numbers against good teams.
Minnesota Vikings
Minnesota has gone win-loss-win-loss-win through five games. Last week they got an easy one against the Giants on the road but taking on on the Eagles at home will be much tougher.

The Vikings have been winning despite mediocre to bad quarterback play. They are 29th in the league in passing offense but have survived thanks to the third best rushing attack in the league.
Dalvin Cook looks healthy and strong and is averaging more than 100 yards per game this season. Only once has he rushed for under 100 yards in a game.
The Minnesota defense has been one of the best in the league through the first quarter of the season. When you are 4th in yards and 4th in points allowed your offense does not have to do too much.
Philly is a diverse offense so the Vikings will be challenged to keep them off the board. If they can hold them to 21 points or less I like the Vikings chances.

4* Free NFL Betting Prediction: Vikings -3
On the surface this looks like a pretty simple handicap – these teams are even so give the Vikings a nod for being at home. I do expect a close game in this one.
NFL Free Week 6 Score Prediction: Minnesota 24 – Philadelphia 20
The key on the Minnesota side is playing with the lead so they can really lean on Cook. The defense will have to play well to but they have been getting that combination all season long.
