Minnesota Vikings vs Denver Broncos Odds

• Opening point spread: Broncos -2
• Opening moneyline: Broncos -130/Vikings +110
• Opening total: Over/Under 43.5 points scored
• Time: 8:20 p.m. ET Sunday (NBC)

UPDATE 2:30 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: PointsBet dipped from Broncos -2.5 to -1.5 in short order Sunday night. Denver returned to -2.5 Tuesday, and the line has since bounced between -2.5 and -2 a couple times. It's now at Broncos -2.5.

Early ticket count is 2/1-plus Minnesota, while early money is 3/1 Denver.

The total rose from 42.5 to 43.5 by Monday morning, then receded to 43 Tuesday. The Under is landing 61% of tickets/90% of money.

UPDATE 11 P.M. ET SUNDAY: Minnesota (6-4 SU/6-3-1 ATS) continues to get it done without QB Kirk Cousins and wideout Justin Jefferson. In Week 10, the Vikes stormed to a 27-3 lead against New Orleans and held on for a 27-19 win giving 3 points at home.

Minnesota is on a 5-0 SU and ATS spree.

Denver (3-5 SU/2-5-1 ATS) still has Week 10 work remaining. The Broncos travel to Buffalo for the Monday night game, so they'll be playing in back-to-back prime-time games.

"Lots of disagreement here in the risk room," Michaelson said of the Vikings-Broncos line. "Josh Dobbs is playing good football, and the Vikings are undefeated since Justin Jefferson was injured. But this is still a road game, and Denver has been improved lately."

The spread and total are unchanged tonight.

Vikings vs Broncos Pick, Prediction

Action Network NFL betting expert Brandon Anderson offers this prediction:

Minnesota's defense has been one of the most surprising units in football this season under Brian Flores. The Vikings rank top 12 against the run and the pass and eighth overall. The Vikings have done a great job limiting opposing WR1s, but have bled yardage against WR2s, perhaps by design. Minnesota ranks 31st in DVOA against opposing WR2s.

It's clear at this point that Courtland Sutton is the go-to guy in this passing attack, but this could be a Jerry Jeudy game. Minnesota has allowed the opposing WR2 to go over 43.5 yards in eight of 10 games this season (80%), and Jeudy has gone over that line in five of eight games (63%). He could be a nice outlet for some short passes if Wilson is under pressure all game.

Pick: Jerry Jeudy Over 43.5 Receiving Yards (-115)
