NFL Odds Update As Vikings Host Packers - 10-05-09
October 5 - NFL Week Four betting activity will culminate with a much-anticipated Monday Night Football match up between two bitter NFC North rivals, the Minnesota Vikings and the Green Bay Packers. Both teams look good so far, and the latest odds updates reflect that it should be a tough game to handicap from an ATS point of view.

The Packers are 2-1 but might still have to improve in order to compete with the undefeated Vikings, who are off to an impressive 3-0 start. Their aged QB is likely to fade down the stretch, as is his habit, but he is hard to beat in the warmer months and the bookies made the Vikings -3 point favorites at the opening of betting earlier this week.
The public is betting on the home team to cover, however, and the odds are now Vikings -4 points.
The Over/Under for the game opened at 47 combined points but the Under is surprisingly attracting plenty of play and the total has dropped down to 45.5 points.
We recommend a bet on the Over and the Packers, since those big Vegas hotels didn't get built on smart sports bettors.
