Brock Purdy has to do something he’s never done before in the NFL in the 49ers vs Vikings week 7 matchup, and that’s come back from a bad game. Purdy was just 12/27 last week in a 19-17 loss to Cleveland for his first regular season loss as 49ers quarterback, but can Minnesota build on that to get the upset in this spot?

Before Betting on 49ers vs Vikings Week 7

While Purdy had a bad week vs. a very good Browns defense last Sunday, Minnesota QB knows a thing or two about struggles – especially in primetime as he is just 2-10 on Monday Night Football in his career. Those issues have a pretty good chance of continuing vs. a 49ers team that leads the NFL with just 14.5 ppg allowed and has held opponents to a 67.2 QB passer rating which is also a league low.

The Vikings have beaten the Panthers (21-13) and the Bears (19-13) this season – arguably the two worst teams in the NFL. Minnesota has also gone 0-3 at home so although the 49ers are dealing with injuries to RB Christian McCaffrey (oblique), OT Trent Williams (ankle), and WR Deebo Samuel – the Vikings will also be without Justin Jefferson for a second straight game and might just be a bad team altogether.

49ers vs Vikings Week 7 Prediction & Pick

Minnesota has a tendency to play one score games – whether they are wins or losses – which makes taking the points very tempting. That being said, Cousins is absolutely atrocious on Monday Night Football and you can’t bet on him against this very, very good 49ers defense that is going to be a bit chippy coming off last week’s loss to the Browns.  

Pick: 49ers -6.5
