Vikings-Packers Betting Preview

Leave a comment


Earlier today, we took a look at against the spread
betting trends for the Vikings-Packers and Broncos-Raiders. Now let’s
review some sports betting news and notes. NFL betting odds see Green
Bay laying 2.5 with a total of 37.5.

If you haven’t already heard that Aaron Rogers takes over
for Brett Favre at QB for Green Bay,
then perhaps you should not be betting.

Green Bay is
17-3 their last 20 regular season games straight up.

This could easily be a low scoring game reports Bob Warner
of ScoresOddsPicks.com. He notes that
Green Bay allowed just 18.2 points
per game last year and Minnesota’s
tremendous run defense got better in the offseason with the addition of Jared
Allen.

He will be matched up against Chad Clifton who is a top
pass blocker though.

However, the Vikings are without suspended defensive
tackle Bryant McKinnie, starting Artis
Hicks instead.

For those who weigh preseason results, note that Vikings
superstar running back Adrian Peterson averaged just 2.6 yards per carry on 20
rushing attempts in the preseason.

Minnesota is
just 14-18 under head coach Brad Childress.

Grandmaster sports
handicapper Joe Duffy leads the staple of
handicappers with picks on tonight’s MNF doubleheader.

Scouts Inc. believes that the game films dictate that the
Vikings are vulnerable against the slant pass.

Who To Bet On For the MNF Games

Leave a comment

As promised, the first full weekend of regular season football was a godsend (literally) for sharp players. The Vikings-Packers plus Raiders-Broncos offers sports bettors a great chance to increase on their winnings.

Here is the objective rundown of who is hot and who has the big play for Monday Night Football action.

We start out with the best, hottest and biggest play: GodsTips, anchor of OffshoreInsiders.com.

Oh baby. All we do is win. Promises made, promises delivered has had winning weeks 5-of-6 in football so far. We finish this week 18-7 as we nail both Monday Night Football sides Vikings-Packers and Broncos-Raiders. The first game is a Wise Guy!

Yesterday, we nail Wise Guy plays on blowouts Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. We are 6-2 in the NFL regular season, which is smack-dab the norm. It’s the last day for our full-season passes. We have added a Major play side in MLB. Click now to purchase or get more information and a free pick from GodsTips, the top all-time football betting service.

While Duffy is clearly the best of the sports handicappers, he is clearly a tremendous political handicapper as well. The latest Gallup/USA Today poll confirms what Duffy told us last week, that John McCain is now the favorite in the election.  Duffy was so far ahead of the curve.

Now that MSNBC rid of left-wingers Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews on their election coverage team, they may want to hire a true fair and balanced political handicapper like Joe Duffy, CEO of OffshoreInsiders.com 

However, the political betting odds still have Obama and Biden favorites over McCain and Palin.

Sportsbooks generally take down futures bets before Sunday kickoff and bring them back no earlier than Tuesdays, but we look forward to seeing how the Tom Brady injury affects the Super Bowl futures. BetUs Sportsbook is generally the most accurate.

Onward to the power of 620 sports services behind every selection. Here is what is on the MasterLockLine menu.  

There is a clear cut No. 1 tipster in football this season. A handicapper out of Boston is No. 1 in all of the following categories: NFL regular season, NCAA regular season, NFL overall and football overall. Already 2-0 with “Highest Confidence” best bets, a rare one goes tonight for the Vikings/Packers side.  

MasterLockLine exclusive:  The top computer play combines several of the top programs such as Accuscore and power ratings from RPI/BCS simulators, Sagarin, Dunkel, SportsLine and many others to come up with the most accurate computer plays. Top computer play in college or pro football so far goes on the Broncos/Raiders side.  

On a 9-0 run with all totals and 15-2 their last 17 overall, Kongpop Sukhibomrong, head of the famed Pan-Asian Syndicate which dominated Asian and European soccer for years has now taken over the North American sports scene. His group has now merged with Danny Ying of SuperLockLine fame. Pop’s syndicate is the most requested source of winners in the history of the SuperLockLine and MasterLockLine.  Today get both NFL totals.  

Bo Eason is the No. 2 ranked handicapper all sports combined since 1990.  His 10*s have turned a profit in every sport (college and pro counted separately) literally ever year since 1990. On a 9-0 run with 10* he has one that agrees with the Denver/Oakland top computer play, plus he adds an MLB side to make it 11-0

16-7 THIS WEEK IN FOOTBALL, WINNING WEEK 5-OF-6 IN FOOTBALL LONG CLINCHED; BOTH MNF SIDES

Oh baby. All we do is win. Promises made, promises delivered has had winning weeks 5-of-6 in football so far. We finish this week 18-7 as we nail both Monday Night Football sides Vikings-Packers and Broncos-Raiders. The first game is a Wise Guy! We added MLB as well.

Yesterday, we nail Wise Guy plays on blowouts Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. We are 6-2 in the NFL regular season, which is smack-dab that norm. It’s the last day for our full-season passes. You get all of today’s Joe Duffy’s GodsTips  $17 at OffshoreInsiders.com.    

NFL

Denver-Oakland UNDER 41

Both teams are depleted at wide receiver.  As reported in the Press-Democrat: “The Raiders’ receiving corps was already thin before Drew Carter tore his left ACL in the third exhibition game. He’ll miss the entire season. That left the team with Ronald Curry, Javon Walker and a collection of young guys with little NFL experience to their credit.

Curry, though he lacks game-breaking speed, has been a valuable part of the Raiders’ offense for several years. Walker, however, has been plagued by injuries, off-field peculiarities and poor conditioning; few are counting on him having a huge season.”

The newspaper further states, “The Raiders also have Johnnie Lee Higgins, Todd Watkins and Chaz Schilens for JaMarcus Russell to throw to. Their combined NFL reception total: six catches, all by Higgins last year. Schilens is a rookie, and Watkins is getting his first NFL action after bouncing around a few teams.”

Finally, in Phil Barber’s article he states, “And the situation is nearly as dire for the Broncos.

They have one top-flight receiver, big Brandon Marshall, who exploded for 102 catches and 1,325 yards last season. The league, however, suspended Marshall for violating its code of conduct after he was arrested three times in 2007 and 2008. The suspension was cut from three games to one, but he’ll still sit this one out.

Jay Cutler’s other options at wide receiver include a couple of solid possession receivers in Brandon Stokley and Keary Colbert, veteran Darrell Jackson (let go by the 49ers after he dropped numerous passes in 2007), rookie Eddie Royal and Edell Shepherd, who has 13 receptions in four NFL seasons.”

Conversely, as reported in the Mercury News, the cornerbacks are top notch. “Denver‘s Champ Bailey is the best cornerback in the NFL, the Raiders’ DeAngelo Hall says.

But when it comes to the top cornerback tandem, Hall and Nnamdi Asomugha get the nod over the Broncos’ Bailey and Dre‘ Bly, as well as the league’s 30 other pairs, Hall and the Raiders say.

Raiders defensive coordinator Rob Ryan doesn’t hesitate when asked if Hall and Asomugha merit top billing. But why stop there? Throw in nickel back Stanford Routt, and the Raiders claim to have the best trio of cornerbacks.

‘We’re going to prove it Monday night,’ Ryan said.

Bly begs to differ. He said the longevity and statistics associated with Bly and Bailey make any comparison an open-and-shut case.”

As Bob Warner of ScoresOddsPicks.com tells us, “Simply put, it’s two of the best DBs corps are going against two of the weakest WR corps.”

The respective quarterbacks are in the bottom 10 as well. We see a lot of running and a lot of punting.
