Eagles Or Saints: Which Dog Is Most Likely To Win Straight Up

[Hman]

Atlanta -145
Philadelphia +135

New Orleans +175
Minnesota -190

[A4K]

Saints. Although the Saints defense is not as good on paper as the Vikings, I think their offensive weapons will be too much.

[Clutchut12]

Saints have bo idea how they are 4 point dogs and thats the only thing that scares me

[jeffchitown]

I have been against Vikings all year and they just somehow keep on winning... I’d still agree saints here better 🐕

[gauchojake]

Both?

[ikid2groove415]

Saints

[MMANick]

I think both have a good chance. I think Philly wins and NO/MIN is a coin flip.

[LT Profits]

Saints, although I wish spread was a tough higher

Line actually seems LIGHT, Vikes have a strong HFA, I was hoping for +6. Minny heavy favorite to win NFC.

[Snowball]

Waiting to see if Minny commits to naming starter QB

What are you talking about? Of course Keenum is starting, who else would it be?

Bradford is playing in practices and Zimmer refuses to name starter

[ikid2groove415]

Lol

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

Saints Philly ML parlay maybe?

Doesn't sound like Bradford will play this season.

Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said the team will "take our time and see how it goes" with Sam Bradford (knee, injured reserve).



Bradford returned to practice last week, opening up a three-week window for him to be activated, but it remains far from a certainty he returns to the active roster this season. Barring an injury, Case Keenum will be under center the rest of the way.

Why would the Vikings play Bradford over Keenum at this point? Keenum has over a 3 to 1 TD to INT ratio and he has thrown for over 3,500 yards.

Saints are solid pick here even ML IMO...Viking beat them earlier but that was a hot Bradford at QB..Viking have had the biggest cream puff schedule NFC north horrible, Dolphins and Browns ect...I think NO defense can hold vikings under 21 pts and if they do they might win straight up

[BigdaddyQH]

I have to go with the Saints because Philly is NOT going to win.

this is a newly updated article as of 10 am EST-
so I'm glad to hear Zimmer finally give some info,
but he is still playing games. also from article:
Case Keenum will start Sunday’s game at U.S. Bank Stadium.
Teddy Bridgewater is expected to be his backup even though Zimmer wouldn’t tip his hand.

“You’ll have to wait until Sunday,’’ Zimmer said.
Bradford is eligible now to be activated.

Right now, I don't have much of an opinion on the side.
I am convinced Pats and Steelers will crush - so don't feel need
to introduce addtl risk.

Vikings | Sam Bradford update Tue Jan 9, 11:44 AM

Updating previous reports, Minnesota Vikings QB Sam Bradford (knee) practiced two days last week and saw one-third of the repetitions, according to head coach Mike Zimmer. He's not expected to be above No. 3 on the depth chart.

Cant be light when u have Drew Brees and they have Case Keenum,yes Keenum has had a good year but but cmon man

Using NFC futures above, no-vig ML translates to about Minny -207, roughly equivalent to -5.5.

[GunShard]

I see a Falcons vs Saints NFC championship game.

[shocka1212]

Saints Philly ML parlay maybe?

I just don't see how nick foles will be able to win a playoff game... Atlantas Linebackers are so athletic that they play the run so well...

I hope you're right.

[Kermit]

Saints

[grease lightnin]

I have Falcons -2.5 and a teaser Saints +10 Steelers -1.5

[cmduchene]

more likely to win straight up, philly. vikes defense gonna be mean to brees

[Crusherrr]

Eagles win by 7+. I'm thinking 21-14.

[frostno98]

I think the favorites go 3-1 on Sunday, pick your poison. I'll take Atlanta and that Superbowl experience over the Eagles.

They wouldn't. Nobody is getting fooled

[jrgum3]

Saints have a very real chance to make the Super Bowl. Drew Brees is playing at an elite level and that is enough to win on the road at Minnesota this weekend.

[HurryUpAndDrink]

Im gonna take the saints, and Im gonna take the falcons.... you decide

[Headsterx]

With Seaweed's "endorsement" it's the Saints... Lol
