NFL Week 2 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Vikings at Eagles

Minnesota Vikings at Philadelphia Eagles

Under new Head Coach Kevin O’Connell, the Vikings absolutely destroyed the Packers in Week 1. Yet they find themselves slight road underdogs against the Eagles in Week 2. The Eagles came out of Detroit with a win, but they did allow 181 rushing yards, with D’Andre Swift averaging 9.6 yards per carry. 

The spread is at Eagles -2, but do not be surprised to see this line move toward the away team as Monday night’s kickoff approaches. To see this move toward the Eagles at any point would be a bit surprising.

What is Betting Against the Spread?

Betting “against the spread” refers to the act of choosing the winning team based on a numeric handicap placed on the team that oddsmakers believe is superior, rather than picking the outright winner. For example, if the Rams face the Bengals, and oddsmakers set the spread at Rams -3.5, you would need Los Angeles to win by 4 or more points in order to cash your Rams bet.

What is an Over/Under Bet?

Over/Under is a wager based on how many points you think will be scored in a specific game. Oddsmakers set the total, and bettors decide whether the final score will be higher or lower than that number. If an Over/Under is set at 44.5 points and you bet Over, you will need the combined score of both teams to be 45 points or higher to win your bet.

What is a Moneyline Bet?

A moneyline bet involves choosing which team you believe will win a specific matchup. The moneyline favorite carries a minus designation, like -130. This means that you need to wager $130 to earn a $100 profit. Conversely, the underdog carries a plus designation, like +110. This means that you win $110 in profit on a $100 bet.
