Las Vegas - The number on the Celtics/76ers game could flop around, but thinking that WITHOUT Joel Embiid, Boston is worth a tumble. We're talking double revenge here.

The Cajuns went Over 6 times and Under 7 times.

If Cook is a go, we're on Minnesota, light. Love Drew Brees, love Michael Thomas and the rest of the offense, but lets dig a little deeper. Most folks are looking at last week, when the Saints crushed the Panthers, 42-14, and the Vikings lost to the Bears, 21-19. Not a big surprise.
