Pick by Gambling Analyst Sam Panayotovich
Two of the best offenses in football captained by two of the brightest young head coaches will share the spotlight Monday night in Philly.
I can’t wait for the firework show.
The point total has already risen from 48 to 51.5, and that probably keeps running as we get through the weekend. If you’re looking to bet the “Under,” you might as well wait. Either way, it would be silly not to expect offense with all the skill and speed that will be on display.
Minnesota is extremely appealing as a short-road underdog, but I want more points. Let’s throw the Vikings into a teaser with the Steelers and get both teams north of touchdown. You’ll appreciate the extra security.
PICK: Vikings +7.5 to Steelers +7.5 (-122) at FOX Bet
