Laying 3 dimes on the Vikings +4 on Sunday

It's because the Vikings have beaten the Lions 13 times in a row at Minnesota. That's why Detroit is such a great play here; tremendous value on a team that should be favored by 6 or 7 in this game. Detroit doesn't come into this game big headed because Minnesota has been kicking their asses for so long. This team is all about knocking down walls and proving people wrong and a crappy Minnesota team is in the way. Detroit wins this game EASY IMO, -3 is to good to pass up on this team.

This line was +2 Detroit last week, how is it value now?

favored by 7? are you serious?

The value is on minny and the sharps know it thus the line keeps going down and down.

the public hasn't even started to hit this line yet. The joe's will come out in full force and pound the lions, and don't be surprised if by the time Sunday rolls around the lions are laying 4.5 or 5. Maybe I am wrong, but i doubt the public will bet on the vikings after they only scored 3 points in the second half so far this season. 0 points in 2H against the chargers and 3 against the bucs. If the vikings are going to cover they will need to hold a sizable lead at HT based on those numbers.

I think this thread is too serious, Pavy, both our jokes went unnoticed(and maybe rightfully so).

Ice House · 09-20-11, 05:01 PM

Can the Vikings stop megatron?

can the Vikings play 4 quarters?

Which McNabb will show up?

how hurt is Matthew Stafford? He looked hurt at the end of last game.

Lions will be without Nick Fairley... playing on the road... remember guys they haven't beaten anyone good so far this season. Joe the public is very high on the Lions right now b/c of the 48-3 result. Remember that fellas.

But is Vikings +3 a lock? I mean a real lock? if so i'm going all motherfuking in baby

Ice House · 09-20-11, 05:02 PM

what gets me is ... the vikings collapse last week. actually they have been winning both games they have played and then blew a second half lead.

On a neutral field Detroit should be favored by 8-10 points over Minny, so yes, this line offers great value for Detroit. It's not even close, Detroit has more explosive players on offense and defense compared to Minny. Keep on betting on bad football teams that won't make the playoffs and see how far that gets you. Sharps/squares, I don't care who is on who, Minny doesn't pass the eye test and Detroit clearly does.

the10man · 09-20-11, 06:12 PM

This is a joke.

hope this play hits dont want you to leave, nba season tailing you is cash!!!

Muscles · 09-20-11, 09:12 PM

Detroit should probably be favored in this game but I don't know if I would take Detroit giving away points. Minny still isn't terrible...I'd really be careful on this one. I do think Detroit squeaks out a close one.

Cannot believe you are bettng big on McScrub...

I dont single out certain players. I never let bias get in my way. McNabb is old but he can still produce a good game anytime. Experience is huge.

davidx191 · 09-21-11, 04:02 AM

This is the lock of the week. I am betting big on the Vikings ML. Lions will simply lose steam after peaking so early in the season, they simply don't have the winning culture yet to continue this dominance at a divisional rival's house.

gimpy · 09-21-11, 05:48 AM

The lockout didn't give Mcnabb a whole lot of time to learn the offense, or develop chemistry. He should have it by week 3. I'm waiting until game day to decide whether or not I want to pound the moneyline.

obamaismyuncle · 09-21-11, 05:54 AM

Vikings win this game..they haven't lost to Detroit it home in a long long time..

jjgold · 09-21-11, 05:58 AM

Just remember Lakerboy and most others do not have great records
Proceed with caution

gimpy · 09-21-11, 06:20 AM

LB is phenomenal in hoops wagering. Not quite sure about his NFL plays yet as this is the first season I've paid any attention to it.

Either way, GO LB!

wikkidinsane · 09-21-11, 06:26 AM

Detroit havent won on vikings homegrounds since '93 but I am going to bet the other side here buddy. Detroit will begin a new ERA

no1here · 09-21-11, 07:29 AM

Why are you people not riding the wave? I am 6-0 with the lions now betting 20 units and keying them on parlays.
Minni will not score first in this game and will be lucky to score at all.

I will take all points bets that lakerboy is only a boy and will not leave here. Why this happens amazes me but confident enough to give you 50 to 1. I have 5K to cover my butt so firsts to send 100 gets the bet.

Dont lose all of your points at once.

Lakerboy does have a great record! what is your record old timer?

BigDeem5 · 09-21-11, 09:57 AM

Lakerboy, I could not agree more with this pick.

I may have a personal vendetta against the Lions, but I faded them Week 1 and 2. Told a buddy of mine I'll keep fading them because Stafford is not an 'elite' QB. Best is an average RB. Beside Calvin, their offense stinks.

Their defense is overrated and Peterson will run all over them.

It is a GREAT play imo. Do not quit if you lose. But, ride em like there's no tomorrow babbyy

NardVa · 09-21-11, 10:23 AM

The Lions can't run and Minny is good against the run. If they move the ball on the Vikings it will have to be by air. Detroit can't stop the run and Minny is has a strong ground game. If Detroit hopes to slow down Minny they will have to force Minny to pass.

Its the personal vendetta...its definitely not stats....or reality! Stafford is growing up....13 tds-3 picks in his last 5 games (3 from last year and 2 this year). He went for 305/3 tds in Tampa in week 1 on the road. Tampa won 10 games last year so they're not bad. McNabb is washed up and they let their best WR go in Sidney Rice. AP will see 8 in the box all day long. Minny needs this one more but I don't see Detroit looking past them...ala Baltimore last week.

team A beat team B and team B beat team C, so team A should beat team C

Yea, Lagerrette Blount and the KC RB's just ran circles around them huh?

FindTheLock · 09-21-11, 11:09 AM

the lions weakness is in their secondary not on their D line. Their run defense is the staple of their team right now, and one of their best run stoppers hasn't even played yet. That's a scary thought.

zsr · 09-21-11, 01:31 PM

LOL why is this thread still going? Just another airbet by a guy with 32k posts

The bet will lose and he'll be back the next day

adrian peterson is nasty as hell. he is no lagerrette blount.

lakerboy · 09-21-11, 03:06 PM

McNabbs career is on the line here. He must come up with the goods or he might be done for good. He has to respond to what the skins are doing without him. I fully expect him to have a good game. It might start off tough but as the game goes on i think he will produce the goods. AP has always owned the lions. Those things dont change.
