12/26/21 Best Bet: Minnesota Vikings +3.5 (-120)

So let me see if I have this correct. The Rams are 3.5 point favorites (lay the juice for the hook) in Minnesota. Minnesota is one of the few locations in the NFL that I give a full 3 points for homefield. So this line would be 6.5 in LA? Would you lay that in LA? 6.5? And why did the line go up when Dalvin Cook was ruled out? Is the drop off from Cook to Mattison 1 full point? You can run on the Rams much easier than you can throw on them. I’m getting Kirk Cousins in the early window, where he seems to excel. I’m getting a desperate Minnesota team fighting for their playoff lives. I’m getting over a field goal, the most key number in the NFL. I’m getting a fat and happy Rams team that thinks they are good coming off of three wins (that are nothing to brag about). (Yes, they beat the Cardinals but that game should have been much closer). Anyways, Skoooooooooool!
