Fixture: Vikings @ Commanders
Date and Time: Sunday, November 6 (1:00pm EST)
Venue: FedExField
NFL Parlay Leg #1: Dalvin Cook Anytime TD (-125)
Dalvin Cook has a total of five touchdowns this season and continues to win the ball. He is tied for eighth in rushing attempts. In his only other game against Washington, the man scored a touchdown and that memory can only serve him well on Sunday. Having scored a touchdown in each of his last three games, he is the obvious choice here. Back him to find the end zone once again against the Commanders who are struggling to stop most of the opposing running this season.

NFL Parlay Leg 2: Taylor Heinicke Under 1.5 Passing Touchdowns (-150)
Getting this right is crucial as passing touchdowns can be more challenging to predict. Taylor Heinicke is facing a solid Minnesota defense which will put him under a lot of pressure. He managed a solitary touchdown pass last week against Indianapolis, so it is a fair assumption that the Vikings have a chance to limit the quarterback from finding the end zone twice through the air.
NFL Parlay Leg 3: Joey Slye Under 5.5 Kicking Points (+105)
This could turn out to be a game where the Washington Commanders could struggle to move the football against a stellar Minnesota Vikings defense. Washington's kicker Joey Slye has been struggling with a mere 2-for-4 from 40+ yards away and unless he knocks down a field goal, this is definitely going under. The fans have no complaints simply because he has put up 16 points in his last two games, but this Commanders team is going to struggle with field positions against a top-tier team and have to punt.
