    Carolina is one of the worst defending team is rushing yards. Peterson is 1st in the NFL in rushing yards 1st in Rushing TD coming off 175 rushing yards last week,against GB, While Rookie QB through 220 yards and 2 touch downs. Expect Minni run the ball all day. AP getting 3 or 4 touchdowns. High scoring game but I believe Minni Wins.
