Vikings still not getting respect. Underdogs @ Oakland

[daneblazer]

Oakland -2.5

o/u 42.5

kinda like the under

[jjgold]

Oakland will blow them out

I wonder why guys here drive with plastic on their car windows

[RavensFan2k3]

Oakland def covers

[Booya711]

definitely like Da Raidaaas at home

[Killer_Demo]

Raiders come out with a fire this game. Raiders win

[FlipsideRM]

Gimme the Vikes. Peterson going to have a fuking field day

[jtoler]

I think they are getting respect, its not even -3.

[BIGDAY]

Vikes have been the easiest wager of all NFL this season.

Zimmer has an obvious clue.

[BuckyOne]

Line makes sense if Teddy Bridgewater is out. With Teddy - I think it is a pick or Vikes by 1.

[TheeArchBishop]

Even if Teddy plays, Is he 100%? I have been riding Minny all year but I'm not sure about this one. Carr playing at a high level

[Kermit]

Murray is also injured with some type of concussion. Status up in the air.

[OckertCR]

Vikes at + money should be an auto play for anyone with a clue

[RRNJ13]

QB issue concussion ?

[Bbfromgpt]

Vikes at + money should be an auto play for anyone with a clue

Certainly not true

[GoBlue77]

Gimme the Vikes. Peterson going to have a fuking field day

raiders it is!!!!!!!!!!

[lakerboy]

Stay away from this game.

[FlipsideRM]

raiders it is!!!!!!!!!!

Awww bro you're too cute.

[mpaschal34]

Oak is not a bad team. Minny also struggled the last time to the Bay Area (week 1). If I was betting the game, I'd be on Oak.

[BuckyOne]

Hill did not do much when he was in at QB Sunday. I guess mostly against the win - nobody did anything so I am not sure what he could do against the Raiders. Maybe practice would help?

[runwithit]

That's what I am thinking.

[BrickJames]

Viks barely won their last two games.

[2daBank]

I've been all aboard the minny bandwagon pretty much all season but fact is they not great on the road and their last 2 away from home they were trailing at half vs a terrible lions team and got handed a game they had no business winning in chi. This a great spot to bet oak and a good matchup for them simply cause they far better defending the run and minny passing offense basically stinks no matter who the qb is. I'm a huge fan of minny coaching staff and defense but oak gonna put up 24ish and viks simply can't go to the black hole and match that kind of production.

This. The Vikings have been a covering machine the past two years, in part because they always seem to be under the public's radar and never seem to get adequate respect from the books.

Week 10 will be the first time I bet against the Vikes all year. I have a ton of respect for them and think they are perhaps the most underrated team in the NFL, but I think the Raiders simply out gun them at home.

Good discussion here fellas!

Teddy B passed phased 1 of the concussion protocol and Zimmer says he will be ready. Both teams match up well and are pretty even in the stats dept. I feel the line is exactly where it should. Would be a PK if it was on neutral field but Oak gets the extra 3 for home field. If Teddy B isn't fit for duty, you will see the line climb.

I think he will play but will see how he practices this week, a few of the sharper books have already opened @ -3 so they feel he will be ready.

I feel like this is the week we find out if the Vikes are for real.

Good luck

[jjgold]

Oaklands a very very good football team and Minnesota been squeaking by some games you're a jerk off if you Bet Minnesota Vikings this weekend listen to it from a professional gambler that knows a lot about the game and coached many many years ago

that is a pretty unfair statement. they have played strong football all season outside week 1, went to den and could have easily won, and are prob one of the favorites to nab a wild card. there a lot of good teams that will be going to oak and losing in the black hole for years to come.. at this point we already know who both these teams are and this game wont change that, they both solid teams on the rise. viks defense is stronger but raiders offense is light years ahead of theirs. this a offense league now and oak at home, they should win and imo it doesnt take anything away from what the vikings are..

far as whether teddy b plays i hope he does since now this gm off the board at all my outs and id prefer getting oak at a fg or less. personally for me i dont think the outcome is any different with or without teddy b but i agree line will be less favorable to bet the raiders, wish i wouldnt have been caught snoozing and got on oak-2.5 before game went off the board cause that was a soft line..

[jjgold]

Massive public play this week on Minny

Some of you guys I think are probably shaped like squares

Dont realy see what's unfair about my statement as I said both teams are evenly matched, unless you feel Oak is the better team.

We witnessed Oak play a tough game in Pitts last week and just came up short, while the Vikes needed OT to squeek by the Rams but I feel the Rams are a pretty good team thus far with gurley emerging as a viable back in the league. Based on last week, the Vikes have a tough road game ahead while Oak is happy to be home and hope to keep the machine turning in the right direction.

When I cap games I try to treat every week as a new one and anything can happen the following week! If Teddy is ready, I feel the Vikes have a shot at the upset. Still looking at the matchup as there might be better games on the board.

Better than being shaped like a circle

If the line drops sharply towards the Vikes then yes your right it is a public play but not sure you can determine that at this point in time...

[daneblazer]

Vikings have one of the best defenses in the league, and certainly the most under rated. it sounds like Bridgewater is playing, Murray on the other hand is up in the air. I don't know if the Raiders can run without him. Helu isn't a between the tackles guy and most db's are bigger than Walker. Reece may actually get the ball more than any of them.

[ki dice]

Min inconsistent they beat bad teams at home and lose to less than average teams on the road beat greenbay then we talk

[BeanTownClown88]

NO way Minn even comes close if TB is out..isn't he concussed?

[TonyP]

Vikes it is then

[WWCD]

Minnesota will not have the offensive output to keep up with the Raiders.

Raiders averaging 36 points a game in the last 3 weeks.
