Will St Louis Rams make the spread against Minnesota Vikings in week 15?

Who will win the Minnesota Vikings against the St Louis Rams football game in week 15?

Most of the sportsbooks have the line on this game with the St Louis Rams winning by 2.5 points. Let’s take a closer look at why they picked the Rams.

Overall the Vikings offense is ranked 24th and the Rams are 25th. The Vikings have struggled getting much going on with their passing game, but it is more about them not going to the air very often more then them not being able to.

Quarterback Christian Ponder is completing over 62%, and looking at the numbers he is having a better year then he is being given credit for since they mostly concentrate on their running game. They will likely run the ball a lot in this game too, since that is their strength.

The Rams have not been very dominating either on the ground or in the air, until their last few games. They have won their last 3 games and have been playing better in the latter part of the season; I am just not sure it is enough to win against the Vikings.

Can the St Louis Rams cover the point spread in the game against the Minnesota Vikings?

No I really don’t think they can. In fact I am picking the Minnesota Vikings to win over the St Louis Rams. I am sure a lot will not agree with me here, especially the sports books.

I could be wrong on this but I am sticking with my picks. I think the Vikings have the edge in this game. Some will say that running back Adrian Peterson is not up to it since he has had limited practice this week but I think he will have another big game.

He just keeps turning in big numbers and is averaging 6 yards per carry and has 10 touchdowns. He currently has 1600 yards and is looking at cracking the single season record of 2105 set my Eric Dickerson in 1984. He could actually break that record by averaging 170 yards per game.
St Louis will be looking to try and stop him from doing that, but I do not think they can.

If the Rams can play today like they did against San Francisco 2 weeks ago, they have a good shot at giving the Vikings a hard time, but in the end I think the Vikings will win. I am picking the Minnesota Vikings over the St Louis Rams by 2 points.
