Chris’ Pick

I’m rolling with the under here. I just don’t trust either team here as I’m still trying to figure out the Falcons and there’s no real telling what the Vikings will look like in their first game with Josh Dobbs as the starting QB. This just has stay away written all over it in my opinion, but if forced to pick, I’ll roll with the under.
