    49ers at Vikings

    My new strategy this year is to take the better team regardless of the spread.

    That strategy would have failed miserably on a day like yesterday.

    77% bets and 79% money are on 49ers and yet the line moved from -7 to -6.5 (tiny RLM) according to scoresandodds.

    Pinnacle lean is on the Vikings +7.0-111 as of 2 PM EST. It changes all the time, so who knows where it will end up by the kickoff.

    Actionnetwork has it about the same at 76% on 49ers, but they are showing opening odd at -2.5 (probably wrong) which then moved to -7, which would be the correct line adjustment by the books if they want to induce more betting on the Vikings to even the wagers.

    Then, the SBR odds is showing consensus higher juice for the Vikings at -115. When it's like this, it's the higher juiced team that covers from what I've seen in the past as all books are probably making a stand and want the public to take the 49ers even though it's already lopsided. If anyone disagrees, then let me know.

    The logical choice is to take the 49ers as they are the far superior team.

    But does Any Given Sunday scenario kick in on MNF? It sure did yesterday for a lot of the games.

    When iffy like this, I would wait for black HIPPY to post his pick and tail, but I think he's betting the Over and not the spread.

    Give me the Vikings and the points, especially if you can get the hook. +7.5

    Just saw a post on X that Caesars Sportsbook reported 80% of money on the 49ers and yet they lowered the spread from -7 to -6.5.

    No question that the books are siding with the Vikings, but that doesn't mean they are right.

    The problem is taking a bad team to cover for you.

    Just hate being on the wrong side of a beat down and the Vikings aren't going to beat up the 49ers. If anything, it will be the other way around.

    My strategy is take the better team... check!
    take the better QB... check!
    take the better defense... check!
    take the better x-factor... check!
    And then take it to the BANK!!!

    Gotta lean 49ers. They are the better team. 7 points is alot though. -330 on the ML is heavy also since it is in Minny.

    I honestly don't know how to bet this focker? Alternate lines in favor of the 9ers maybe. Tease that line down to a field goal maybe and pay the chalk perhaps.

    I still haven't figured it out yet?

    The fact that you passed on the Vikings tells me to take the Vikings.

    If you took the Vikings plus money, then the 49ers would have been the lock.

    Was Fishhead any good at betting on football?

    At BMR, Fishhead has the Vikings and jjgold has the 49ers.

    What does that tell you?

    Vikings it is.

    Not that the past history back in 2012 matters, but that is the year the 49ers went to the Super Bowl and lost to Baltimore; meaning they were very good then too.

    It tells you nothing as both of them pound something differently in their own special ways.

    Backing the San Francisco 49ers is one of the most profitable bets in the NFL.

    The 49ers are 13-4 against-the-spread in their last 17 games. Against tonight’s opponent, the Minnesota Vikings, San Francisco has covered 3 of their last 4 meetings. The 49ers are 7-point road favorites tonight, and are being backed by 76% of spread bets.

    The Vikings are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 home games, and have failed to cover 8 of their last 12 games. Minnesota is also just 2-4 ATS in their last 6 appearances on Monday Night Football, while San Francisco has covered 3 in-a-row on the big stage.

    Vikings can't stop a head cold, CMC or no CMC, Deebo or no Deebo, over 43.5 looks like a minor play.
    Or not, I'll be glued to game seven on FOX.

    Best of luck all.

    I forgot about one of my other rules that I follow.

    Never take a team that just lost against another team that won.

    I asked my little girl who she liked and she asked her group of online friends.

    It was unanimous Vikings because it sounds cool.

    This type of capping is Gold Mine and it cannot be beaten.

    Go Vikings!

    That is a SOLID capping strategy. No questions.

    I have no clue why I stray off it sometimes.

    This would be a great script for a personal injury attorney!

    That's an exciting feeling which I have experience several times over the years. All the things that had to go your way in so many games!

    good luck.

    SF self destructing. SOB! Should have took the Vikings and the points! SF looks like garbage tonight on defense as well. Cousins carving the secondary up.

    That TD was possible because O'Connell took 2 time outs to save time when the 49ers were driving.

    I was wondering why bother.

    They said something about Vikings being a dog at home for the first time since 2014.

    So, that's the trick.

    Take Vikings when they are the dog at home.
