Vikings anxious to break into the win column
The winless Minnesota Vikings will be looking to taste victory for the first time this season on Sunday when they host the New Orleans Saints.
Minnesota brings an 0-2 overall mark (0-0 in the division) into this game versus a New Orleans team carrying a 1-1 record.
Oddsmakers like the Vikings in this one, opening the line at 3.5 in favor of Minnesota. They are 0-2 ATS this season, while the Saints are 1-1. The total, which is 1-1 to the OVER in Vikings games and 0-2 to the OVER in Saints games, has been set at 45.
Jim Haslett's team was busy last game losing to New York 27-10 as 3.5-point underdogs. The 37 points sent that game under the total of 43.5.
The Vikings lost to Cincinnati 37-8 as 3-point underdogs. That contest went under the closing total.
You can't expect much in the way of offensive fireworks from Minnesota. Saddled with the 30th-ranked offence and averaging just 10.5 PPG, the Vikings' offense needs to give its defensive unit some help Sunday in order to have a chance against the Saints.
