4 on grass, 11 on artifical turf
Much has been brought up on how the Vikes have lost 4 games on the road. I would like to point out that all four of those losses were on grass. Where as the Vikes are perfect 11-0 on artifical turf.
BTW, the Cards do play on grass, their field is on a huge tray that is moved outside when not in use. You can't say the same since you lost 2 at home. Just a stat, nothing more. I'm not out to trash talk, just letting you know how this game is leaning if favor of the Vikings. |

Vegas and their -3.5 spread thinks the lean is the other way.

Maybe you should kill a chicken and read its entrails.

Re: 4 on grass, 11 on artifical turf
Betting lines are simply based on how much $$$ is bet on a side so they can cover the losses. The 3.5 goes to the home team, as that is where most betters will go if the teams are pretty much even. Home field is the Saints biggest advantage given the crowd noise. But I have belief that the Vikes can and will handle the crowd noise. A couple long drives, lots of effective rushing, and a couple resulting in TD and the crowd will see the writing on the wall.

Re: 4 on grass, 11 on artifical turf
Well then if you want to bring stats into the conversation, then let's take a look at the other two road teams who play in a dome............The Lions and the Rams!?!?!?!?!? A combined 3-29. Oh my that is what I would call a defining win. So let's just say being 2-0 away in a dome vs. the cellar of the NFL doesn't count. That is like saying, "The Saints destroyed the Cards, and they beat up on the Vikes......Saints will win."

Of all the stats to bring up you pick this one? Useless.

Entrails would be better plus you could eat the chicken.
