San Francisco @ Minnesota props

A throwing game script is indicated by the Vikings being a -6-point underdog in this week's contest. The projections expect the Vikings as the 3rd-most pass-centric team among all teams this week with a 62.5% pass rate, based on their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics. This game will be played in a dome—which means no wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and better passing effectiveness. The San Francisco 49ers defense has been a prominent pass funnel last year, inciting opposing QBs to attempt the 5th-most passes in the NFL (36.2 per game) last year.
