The big question heading into Sunday\u2019s game is will Jordan Love play after suffering a knee<\/p>\n\n\n\n
injury in the opening game of the season? Even if he doesn\u2019t play Green Bay is still a slight<\/p>\n\n\n\n
favorite at home as the NFC North foes renew their rivalry at Lambeau Field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Green Bay Packers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The coaching staff has done a fabulous job for Willis and the offense. In two games, he is<\/p>\n\n\n\n 25-for-34, 324 yards, and two touchdowns. WIllis also has added to the ground game rushing<\/p>\n\n\n\n for 114 yards and a score in those games. Green Bay is the number one rushing team in the<\/p>\n\n\n\n NFL racking up 204 yards per game. But the Pack face a big challenge as the Vikings are #2 in<\/p>\n\n\n\n the NFL allowing just 71 yards on the ground. The defense has been playing lights out. Last<\/p>\n\n\n\n week, 8 sacks and two interceptions including a pick-6. With or without Love the Packers are<\/p>\n\n\n\n built well to end Sam Darnold\u2019s undefeated run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Minnesota Vikings<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Vikings have been the surprise team of the season thus far as Sam Darnold has revitalized<\/p>\n\n\n\n his career, throwing for 657 yards and 8 touchdowns with just two interceptions through three<\/p>\n\n\n\n games. And he\u2019s looked quite comfortable for the first time in his NFL career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Minnesota sits fifth in rushing success but has faced three of the worst rushing defenses to start<\/p>\n\n\n\n the season. Now they take on one of the better defensive units that has 7 interceptions and two<\/p>\n\n\n\n fumbles, Green Bay\u2019s turnover ratio of +7 is the best in the league. Minnesota\u2019s path to victory<\/p>\n\n\n\n relies heavily on Justin Jefferson having success against the secondary. Over his career, JJ<\/p>\n\n\n\n has been held to 59 or fewer yards in 5 of the 7 games. But in the other two, he had 169 and<\/p>\n\n\n\n 184 yards, and two scores in each game, both wins by the Vikings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Player Prop Best Bets<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Aaron Jones: Over 57.5 Rushing Yards (-118)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Aaron Jones was the heart and soul of the Packers during his 7 seasons in Green Bay. You<\/p>\n\n\n\n know he\u2019ll be looking to impress his former team and has had a great start to the season. Jones<\/p>\n\n\n\n rushed for 102 yards vs the Texans and another 94 against the Giants. He\u2019s also rushed for at<\/p>\n\n\n\n least 51 yards in 8 of his last 9 games and with the extra motivation, he should hit this mark<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sam Darnold: Over 0.5 Interceptions (-139)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This seems like a game where the defense will be too much for Darnold to avoid throwing an<\/p>\n\n\n\n errand pass. The Packers have been all over opposing quarterbacks picking off 7 passes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xavier McKinney leads the league with 3 while Jaire Alexander has 2. Playing in a hostile<\/p>\n\n\n\n environment can only lead to bad decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Game Betting Odds<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Vikings +2.5 (+103)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Packers -2.5 (-117)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Total: 43.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n Recent Trends<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Vikings are 6-3 SU in last 9 road games<\/p>\n\n\n\n Minnesota is 6-2-1 ATS in the last nine games as an underdog<\/p>\n\n\n\n Green Bay is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games at home<\/p>\n\n\n\n Matt Lafleur is 22-8 SU against the NFC North as head coach<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The big question heading into Sunday\u2019s game is will Jordan Love play after suffering a knee injury in the opening…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":24239,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[129],"tags":[146],"class_list":["post-25352","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl","tag-nfl"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
