Week 2 of Thursday Night Football threatens to host one of the best match ups on the season for a second week in a row. By that I mean, of course, two teams that are actually expected to end the season with a winning record are playing each other early enough in the season that a short week of rest shouldn’t affect the on field product overmuch.

The Minnesota Vikings (+6)

are heading to Pennsylvania to take on the Last year’s Super Bowl runner-up Philadelphia Eagles (-6). The Eagles are favored by a mile and are the easy consensus pick amongst the staff here at Cat Scratch Reader, but anything can happen in the NFL and often the strangest results come on Thursday nights.
