This is a monster game in the NFC, both for the NFC North and the conference as a whole. Both teams have been tremendous lately, winning in all kinds of different ways. Let’s breakdown this NFC North showdown.
Green Bay Packers at Minnesota Vikings (Sunday 4:25pm ET)
Minnesota won this matchup on the road earlier this season, in a game that began a blowout, but wound up being just a two-point margin. The Packers look like they figured something out throughout that game, and even if some of it was desperation, I expect them to carry some confidence into this game.
While he did have to sling it 54 times due to game script, Jordan Love threw for 389 yards and four touchdowns in that matchup. The Vikings, despite all the success this season, have allowed the third-most passing yards per game this season. That includes the big day to Love, as well as over 300 passing yards allowed just last week in Seattle. The pass defense for the Vikings could wind up being a major factor in this game. Ultimately, I feel the Packers are the better team, and get revenge on the road here. To do so, I expect another big game from Love, so I’ll play his passing prop as well as GB on the moneyline.
The Plays: Packers ML (-102) and Jordan Love 250+ Passing Yards (-105) for 1-unit each
