And nearly no one thinks we have a chance.

Is their Any chance our Oline can dominate them?

They should just stop playing the games and let Vegas decide every year who wins. No idea why people put so much on what Vegas stays unless you are actually gambling.

Chiefs favored by 9 over Titans (Titans won)
Rams favored by 6 over Falcons (Falcons won)
Jaguars favored by 9 over Bills (Jaguars won but didn't cover)
Saints favored by 7 over Panthers (Saints won but didn't cover)

Falcons favored by 3 over Eagles (Eagles won)
Patriots favored by 13.5 (Patriots won and covered)

In short, Vegas has had a rough go this year as far as prognosticating, though I'm sure they've still made a ton of money

Not without Peat, I don't think.

By kickoff, I will have convinced myself we will win. But make no
mistake, it will be an upset.

Yeah I guess it’s unlikely, but I have hope we are somehow better than them. O needs to have a decent clock eating drive or three and need to make some plays defensively and in special teams.

This.

One day, some people who can't seem to grasp the concept will finally understand what Vegas odds mean and stop whining about it.

Vegas odds represent what the bettors think will be the outcome and are set to get bets laid a way that will maximize the earnings on the bets.

IT DOES NOT INDICATE WHAT THE EXPERTS THINK WILL HAPPEN

Vegas is undefeated. The only time they give a frick about the outcome is when there is unbalanced money. The line helps balance the money.

Home team gets 3 points. So they are 2.5 point favorites.

As long as Saints put up +10pts by half and over 20.5 by the end of the game... then I’m a happy man.

...AND Vikings must score less points in either scenario.
