‘Tis the season for NFL games getting flexed into Sunday Night from 黄剑's blog

 Football Youth Everson Griffen Jersey , and it appears that the next time we see the Minnesota Vikings, it will be after we’ve waited all day for Sunday Night.Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune points out that the NFL’s official scheduling page shows that the Vikings’ Week 11 contest at Soldier Field against the Chicago Bears has been moved to Sunday Night Football. The game that had previously been in that slot was the contest between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Jacksonville Jaguars, but it appears that NBC and the NFL have made the decision to swap games for that day.If this is the case, that could mean two consecutive Sunday Night Football contests for the Vikings, as their Week 12 matchup with the Green Bay Packers at U.S. Bank Stadium is also scheduled to be on Sunday Night Football. There don’t appear to be a lot of attractive candidates to replace that game, so it looks like two straight prime-time contests for the Vikings.What do you think about the decision to move Vikings/Bears to Sunday Night Football http://www.thevikingsfootballauthentic.com/xavier-rhodes-jersey-authentic , folks?UPDATE: The NFL has made it official as well through a press release.Bills/Vikings odds: Big point spread good news for Minnesota, not so good for gamblers We don’t generally talk about gambling odds or anything like that as a part of our lead-up to Minnesota Vikings games, but given the circumstances behind this one I thought it was something that merited a look.In their game against the Buffalo Bills this week, the Vikings are ridiculously huge favorites. They opened as a 16.5-point favorite over the Bills, and that number has climbed to 17 since then. According to CBS Sports, this is the third time in the last 30 years that the Vikings have been favored over an opponent by at least 16 points. In November of 2009 Youth Harrison Smith Jersey , they were favored by 17 points over the Detroit Lions, and they won that game by. . .17 points, 27-10, making it a push for gamblers everywhere. Back in 1998, they were a 16-point favorite over the Chicago Bears, and won that one by a final score of 48-22 Youth Anthony Barr Jersey , giving them an easy cover.As most of you out there aren’t gambling types. . .at least, I don’t think you are, anyway. . .I’ll give you the most important number about this sort of thing from the CBS Sports article.Since the start of the 2008 season, there have been 20 games where a team was favored to win by at least 16 points. In those 20 games, the favored teams have a record of 20-0. Sure, they’re just 8-11-1 against the spread in those games Youth Kirk Cousins Jersey , but at last check the NFL doesn’t figure records against the spread into potential divisional and playoff tiebreakers, so who cares?So, if you’re planning on putting a wager down on the Vikings for Sunday’s contest, be wary of such a huge point spread. However, if history is any indication. . .and this is where I start knocking on every wooden object in my house. . .it seems pretty likely that by about 3:00 PM Central on Sunday afternoon we’ll be celebrating the Vikings moving their record to 2-0-1 on the young 2018 season.
