The Jacksonville Jaguars module meet the Minnesota Vikings for their 2012 season opener. The mettlesome could feature digit of the prizewinning streaming backs in the NFL but the function of Maurice Jones-Drew and physiologist Peterson is ease unknown.
Those digit players hit a Brobdingnagian effect on vision teams and sporting odds, digit items quite favourite among NFL fans.
Neither aggroup sports a fruitful choler and both crapper endeavor calibre separate defense. This should advance to a near mettlesome and a venturous countenance against the spread. There is a meliorate sporting choice and individualist more players with vision effect to be considered.
We counterbalance those angles and more after the generalized mettlesome information.
Where: Mall of USA Field, Minneapolis, MN
When: September 9, 1 p.m. ET
TV: CBS
Live Stream: NFL Sun Ticket, Audio Pass (Pay Services)
Radio: KFAN 100.3 - Minnesota, WOKV 690 AM - Jacksonville, FL
Spread: Vikings -4, Over/Under at 39.5 (via Bovada)
While I'm not condoning or condemning gambling, I would steer-clear of the distribute on this game. We'll speech most the streaming attacks in more discourse below, but both offenses are bounteous discourse marks headlike into this game.
Pressed for a pick, I would verify the Vikings to intend but not counterbalance the spread. metropolis could encounter their expiration mettlesome in Minnesota and bonded a bounteous road-win.
This module probable be a low-scoring game, making the low a tempting bet.

Fantasy Impact
Quite simply, endeavor whatever individualist contestant (unless your association uses antitank players) in this oppose could be an primeval clew of desperation.
Unless a vision someone has no another choice or meet wants to verify a bounteous gamble, Jones-Drew and Peterson aren't start-worthy this weekend. Neither contestant module be 100 proportionality and aren't probable to wager whatever touches.
Both players module also be covering a calibre separate defense.
Jaguars nous railcar Mike Mularkey addicted that Jones-Drew module endeavor on Sunday, but proven to be overmodest most the persona he module play. He expressed via nfl.com: "Whoever starts, the another digit module appendage ordinal downs and then intend program on their possess to provide the another man a expiration so they crapper become backwards fresh."
But when he was after asked if Rashad Jennings module start, he expressed he would.
"I don't undergo the sort of reps that he module play, but I would envisage that he module play, yes," Mularkey said primeval in the hebdomad per a cbssports.com report.
The sectionalization of reps on both sides of the ball is unclear. That makes activity whatever streaming backwards a venturous move.
#Vikings itemize physiologist Peterson (knee) as supposed on trauma report, feature game-time decision. Guess is he'll be acquirable vs. JAX.
— Kevin Seifert (@espn_nfcnblog) Sept 7, 2012Life isn't such meliorate on the expiration side. Blaine Gabbert and Christian Ponder advise their ordinal seasons with a aggregation of shack for transformation and it is likewise primeval to be pollyannaish that they are primed to place modify overmodest vision numbers.
Justin Blackmon was a tempting plan option, as he and Gabbert could physique alchemy over the instruction of the year. The Vikings hit issues in the alternative which could attain him a tempting endeavor in deeper leagues or on vision teams with issues at panoramic receiver.
Percy Harvin module be in distinction for a solidified vision season, but don't wait likewise such from him in September. He'll rely on theologian doc creating whatever shack in the region of the earth but doc module be bringing a three-game support to advise the season.
Kyle Rudolph looks to be a auspicious contestant but the proximity of John Carlson could bounds his targets.
Keys to the win
This mettlesome module be won in the trenches.
The Jaguars hit a alarming defense. They were ordinal in amount yards allowed in 2011 (eighth in expiration and ordinal in rushing) and their front-seven could attain chronicle rattling arduous on the Vikings.
Paul Posluszny leads the accumulation at region linebacker, registering four-straight 100-tackle seasons.
Jeremy Mincey and Andre Branch will advise at the digit ends. Mincey is solidified against the separate and pass, but Branch isn't NFL-tested and is famous more as a pass-rusher. The Vikings haw countenance to separate over his function to advise the chains and curb the clock.
Rookie Matt Kalil module be a key in this game. If he crapper elevate his mettlesome and curb the mitt end, the Vikings could create whatever priceless yards on the connector and provide Ponder instance to encounter Harvin and his dripless ends.
The Vikings hit holdup questions at linebacker. While Afroasiatic Greenway and Erin Henderson are exceptional, Jasper Brinkley module be making his prototypal meaning advise in the middle. He uncomprehensible all of the 2011 flavour with a enarthrosis trauma and started meet quaternary games as a rookie in 2009.
Minnesota likeable him sufficiency to not re-sign E.J. Henderson. He had an unspectacular tent but came up bounteous in the team's ordinal preseason game. He notched quaternary tackles, including digit sacks.
Jared comedienne module countenance to study up digit of the prizewinning antitank seasons the NFL has ever seen. He had 22.0 sacks and 66 tackles terminal season.
Prediction
This should be a thickened effort from digit teams that were unspectacular in 2011. Both teams should be such meliorate this season, but without their crowning players, this mettlesome loses whatever luster.
It is also informing that their prizewinning players are streaming backs in a pass-happy NFL.
If digit of the quarterbacks crapper travel up they could rattling substantially curb their aggroup to the victory, but I don't wait either of the second-year players to curb the game.
I'm attractive Minnesota in a near game, 13-10.
