Week 6: Detroit Lions (3-2) @ Minnesota Vikings (2-3)

It's an NFC North division collision.

Vikings coming off an embarrassing loss, and 10 days of rest. I assume Teddy will be back, we can only hope.

Last 6 meetings:

Lions 26-23 OT
Lions 34-28
Vikings 20-13
Vikings 34-24
Lions 34-24
Vikings 14-13

If Bridgewater plays I think the Vikings will take this one. Is Calvin definitely out?

On the radio this morning they were talking like Calvin is not going to play and Reggie Bush is more 50/50.

Hmm. I was hearing Bell was closer to playing this week than Bush but both were up in the air.

I hope it's Bell. Bush has gone off on us in the past.

Looks like Calvin Johnson and Bush didn't practice today. Bell did.

Apparently Johnson said he would need "a lot of treatment" to play.

I think the Lions take this one regardless of Teddy/Calvin playing or not. I think Bell, Riddick and Winn will work well enough for us in the running game (if the former two are playing this week). I actually have confidence in the receivers this year even when Johnson is out with Tate and Ross. Stafford is probably going to win or lose us this game.

Pretty sure you can scratch Riddick off that list.

Official prediction (assuming Teddy plays and Calvin does not):

Vikings - 27
Lions - 23

How has the Lions D been this year?
