What to Bet
Vikings -115 to win the NFC North
The Vikings So Far This Season
From NFL.com: "This run that Adam Thielen is on, torching the league week in and week out, is edging into historic territory. Thielen recorded 110 yards Sunday, giving him seven straight 100-yard games to start the season, equaling Charley Hennigan's pro football record, set back in 1961 for the AFL's Houston Oilers. And he's threatening more records. There's also the mark for 100-yard receiving performances in a season, which is currently held by Michael Irvin and Calvin Johnson (11), and Marvin Harrison's single-season catch mark (143), set back in 2002. Thielen is on pace for over 150."
The Vikings 2018-2019 Odds
They are at -115 odds to win the NFC North and 15-1 to win the Super Bowl.
Line Movement and Public Backing
The line has gone from Vikings -2.5 to Saints -1.5. Minnesota was seeing 61% of the action on the spread as a +1 home dog.
Saints vs. Vikings Betting Trends, Predictions
The home team has gone 3-0 since 2014 in this series.
AthlonSports says this will be a close one:
The Saints return to the site where last season began and ended for them. Sean Payton and his players have downplayed any notion of revenge against the Vikings. Has his team completely moved past being one miraculous play away from the NFC Championship Game?
The Vikings have righted their ship after a 1-2-1 start. They have reverted to their mode of operation from the mid-80s through the early '90s: a quarterback firing the ball to speedy receivers to offset a mediocre running game complemented with a fierce pass rush on defense. Those teams bedeviled the Saints too.
Prediction: Vikings 31, Saints 30
