Minnesota -5.5@ San Diego; is this stealing?

jgerson · Nov 6, 2003

I couldn't believe Vikings were only 5.5 point favorites. Can anybody give me any reason not to like San Diego this Sunday?

A reason to like minny or SD?

I apologize it should be a reason not to like Minnesota. I can't come up with one besides the game being played in San Diego.

Minny is coming of two straight home loses to average teams IM0

You will have to overcome a huge public backing behind you

When something looks to good to be true it usually is

Seems like a nice TRAP line to me!

You need to look at what Minn defense has given up the last two weeks. NYG & GB were able to move the ball as if the Minn defense were practicing dummies. If you are going to bet Minn, bet it now. The squares are going to move that line to at least 6 by game time.

Tomlinson will run for 150 yards or more on Sunday, in fact we could see 200 yards. Ahman Green ran through the middle of the line like there was nothing there, first hit on him was usually about 5 yards downfield. Tomlinson has to be salivating at this opportunity, as long as they don't turn it over and get forced to throw the ball I see something like a 35 carry, 180 yard effort.

I am not going to back SD, but hard to bet Vikes off two home losses to just decent competition and then facing this particular matchup which could hurt them badly.

I'm a die-hard VIKES fan, and I gotta say this week they will pull it off. The Giants and Packers beat us up, but this team is for real. The D is the only question mark. Yes, it is a big ???? but with the likes of Randy Moss and now Michael Bennett, they will pound SD by 10.

The player count on this game is about 40-1 in favor of minni here. Every player and their mother is coming out of the woodwork for this one. If minni covers, this game will hurt most books.

If Minny covering means the books get killed, then Minny will cover.

I noticed this season that the books have been cleaning up in college ball but getting killed on the NFL. Unfortuantely, your average square does not play much college, so that means the books have been getting a little hurt overall.
