Premium Pick

Minnesota has scored the second-fewest points (16) in two preseason games. They come off a 12-10 home loss to the Colts. The Vikings won't be playing QB Kirk Cousins in this meaningless road game, so backups Jake Browning and Kellen Mond will go. The two have not thrown a TD pass yet with one pick, two sacks, while the team is 7-of-25 on third down. In Minnesota's last three preseason finales they've averaged 15 points as coach Mike Zimmer historically shows nothing on offense. Kansas City won't risk injury to franchise QB Patrick Mahomes, so below-average backups Shane Buechele, Chad Henne, and Anthony Gordon will split time. The Chiefs haven't topped 20 points in their two games as the quarterbacks have combined for three TDs and three picks, while the defense has been very good allowing an average of 13 points. Take the UNDER.
