Can Vikings Really Steal #1 Seed in NFC

Can Vikings Really Steal #1 Seed in NFC

The Minnesota Vikings secured the 2022-23 NFC North crown weeks ago. They are in the upcoming playoff bracket, but the quality of opponent and the number of home games they get is yet to be determined.

Vikings are trying to become the #1 seed in NFC. They need to win both of their next two games and the Eagles to lose both theirs. The Vikings also need the win against the Packers and Bears on the road.

The Eagles are -5.5 points favorites to beat the Saints in Philadelphia on Sunday. Jalen Hurts is doubtful to play. Gardner Minshew is expected to start under center for the second-straight game.

The Minnesota Vikings are +3.5 points underdogs against the 7-8 Green Bay Packers this weekend. The Vikings and Packers are playing for the #1 seed in the NFC. San Francisco 49ers are chasing the Vikings for #2 seed.

The Vikings will play in Chicago vs the Bears next week. The Eagles will be playing at home against the New York Giants. Both of Philly's losses this season were against division rivals.

The Vikings have a 2% chance of winning the NFC and the Eagles have 94%. FanDuel gives the Vikings +2700 odds to win the #1 seed. FiveThirtyEight.com gives them -1450.

NFL Betting: Week 9 Best Picks and Advice

Panthers (+2.5) over Colts: One of two bets I made early this week was Panthers+3. I was on Carolina last week because HC Frank Reich gave up play calling to OC Thomas Brown, and I thought that would spark the Panthers offense. That didn't play out how I expected, but Bryce Young led an 86-yard drive for the Panthers to kick a game-winning field…
