NFL Betting – Minnesota Vikings at Seattle Seahawks

NFL Betting – Minnesota Vikings at Seattle Seahawks

One of four unbeaten teams through their first four games of the 2020 NFL season, the Seattle Seahawks look for the first 5-0 start in franchise history when they host the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football. Riding the electric play of Russell Wilson, Seattle has scored at least 31 points in every game and boasts the league’s second-highest scoring offense. And they’ve needed it all with a defense that’s been as bad as the offense has been good. And with a Vikings team loaded with playmakers that’s scored 30 or more points in three of four outings, you can see why the total is currently the highest on the Week 5 board.
