Vikings vs. Bears: Monday Night Football Betting Tips

  • last year
Transcript
00:00 the Vikings had won five straight prior to last Sunday night in Mile High against the Broncos.
00:06 A one-point game decided at the very end. Denver wins 21-20, ending that five-game win streak
00:13 for Minnesota. But they covered in that game, they've covered in six straight. The Vikings
00:18 actually one of the best cover teams in the National Football League here, Donny, through
00:21 their first 11 games, seven, three, and one ATS. The Bears have been booked as an underdog
00:27 in nine of their 11 games so far this year. They'll be the three-point underdog tonight
00:31 on the road in Minneapolis. The over-under currently stands, Donny, at 43-and-a-half.
00:36 As you look at this game, spread, money line, over-under, Donny, what do you think the flow
00:42 looks like tonight in Minneapolis? Let's be honest with it. It's two teams that we know a lot about,
00:48 why? Because we watch them play. But obviously, inserting of different quarterbacks here. Tyson
00:53 Bajent, lead Bears, you get Justin Fields back in the fold. Hey, looks like he can make the
00:58 chains move with just his legs. You take a look at Kirk Cousins, more of an aerial assault. Then
01:02 you take a look at Josh Dobbs, more of, I'll just do what it takes to get a first down at every play,
01:06 whether it's running or throwing today. So if we're looking at the prime time,
01:10 20-23 statistics, you probably look at the 43-and-a-half and say, yeah, it should be 23-and-a-half.
01:16 We know this game is going to end up. But quite honestly, there's nothing for the Chicago Bears
01:20 to play for this season, unless they want to say, yes, Justin Fields is our franchise guy. Let's
01:25 open the playbook. Let's stay aggressive. Let's see what he can do. They should have beaten the
01:28 Detroit Lions last time out here, which is an epic collapse from their defense and a great
01:32 performance by the Detroit Lions down the stretch. I'm looking for that type of Chicago Bears
01:37 offense to be on the offensive tonight against an average Minnesota defense. And if we take a look
01:42 at the Minnesota Vikings, nothing to shake a stick at here going up against that Chicago Bears
01:45 defense. Yeah, they play decent football against the run, but they're susceptible to the pass.
01:49 Now, granted, we would have loved to have had Justin Jefferson in this football game. This
01:53 would have lengthened the football field and open up everything underneath. But I don't even think
01:57 that's going to be the case. If you're asking me for one singular bet tonight, I do like the
02:01 Chicago Bears getting the three points, but I think the total actually goes over tonight. It's
02:06 in Minnesota. It's in a dome. We're not worried about any weather conditions creeping in. Why not
02:10 the Chicago Bears stay aggressive tonight and force the Minnesota Vikings to keep up with them
02:14 as well? I think we go over the total tonight, even though that's really not the way to go here
02:18 with the props market, particularly over the past couple of weeks here in the NFL.
02:22 Prime time's been brutal to the unders.
