I'm not sure if you've heard yet but Super Bowl 52 is right around the corner and funny enough it's taking place here in Minnesota! Wouldn't it be cool if the Minnesota Vikings could find a way to participate in the very Super Bowl game that their hosting? It's a longshot, in fact it's never happened, but hey this year could be the year!
With that, we'll be tracking the Vegas odds on the Minnesota Vikings as the season goes along to see how it's changing from the offseason, into the preseason and then each week along the way.
Here's how it's looked so far...
- February 6th, 2017 (opening odds) - 16/1 odds to win Super Bowl
- March 16th, 2017 (after free agency wave) - 33/1 odds to win Super Bowl
- May 3rd, 2017 (post draft) - 33/1 odds to win Super Bowl
- September 7th, 2017 (Opening Day odds) - 33/1 odds to win Super Bowl
- September 14th, 2017 (WEEK 1) - 25/1
- September 21st, 2017 (WEEK 2) - 33/1
- September 27th, 2017 (WEEK 3) - 33/1
Case Keenum did enough to get Vikings fans back on the bandwagon with a big 34-17 win over the Buccaneers last week but the experts in Vegas aren't buying it yet. With that, the team's odds are stuck for a second straight week at 33/1.
Some of that has to do with the lack of drastic drops for team's ahead of the Vikings. That said, this week's opponent, the Lions, did drop back to even odds with Minnesota at 33/1.
