johnson_brad051101.jpgThat’s the sentiment according to Covers, which says that the 1 1/2 points the Vikings are getting as home underdogs this week against Detroit is something to look into—even without quarterback Daunte Culpepper. Covers makes a point that when Culpepper was absent for three games in 2003. Minnesota won and covered all three contests. However, this is a different Vikings team since then, but a home underdog against a (weak) division rival is not the worst thing in the world. Even with Brad Johnson at quarterback.
