Transcript

00:02 - DRS Minnesota, a 13 win football team a season ago.
00:09 Some thought it was by hook and crook
00:11 and they are going to regress this year.
00:14 Well, it's already happened for the Vikings
00:15 if you look at the odds,
00:17 a full touchdown underdog nearly,
00:19 tonight in week number two.
00:21 And despite a buck 50 through the air
00:23 for that guy, Justin Jefferson,
00:25 week number one against Tampa Bay,
00:27 they lost outright.
00:29 Their win total DRS entering the year was eight and a half.
00:32 Pretty crazy for a team that won 13 games a season ago.
00:35 After week number one
00:37 and the outright defeat against Tampa Bay at home,
00:40 that win total for the Vikings
00:42 already down to seven and a half updated,
00:44 plus 160 to see the playoffs,
00:46 not favored to get in any longer DRS.
00:49 - And you're right,
00:50 they didn't suffer any devastating injuries on opening day.
00:53 They were supposed to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
00:55 and they didn't.
00:56 And also coming into the season,
00:57 the high aspirations for the Vikings for me
00:59 just weren't there.
01:00 I had them placed third place years,
01:02 what I thought they would be,
01:03 which is exactly where they sit on the odds market
01:05 at the FanBlue Sportsbook behind the Detroit Lions
01:07 and the Green Bay Packers.
01:09 So we're getting what we're getting tonight
01:10 from the Vikings.
01:11 And also what's that going to look like
01:13 if the Vikings start O and two
01:14 on their season outlook as well?
01:16 Not good.
01:17 And that's probably what they're going to be
01:18 at the end of tonight.
