Vikings vs. Packers Player Prop

As Jaren Hall gears up for the game against Green Bay, his passing yards over/under sits at 214.5. At the moment, the payout for exceeding this mark is -119, in contrast to -115 for falling short of it.

For the season, he has accumulated 101 yards, completing 80% of his passes in a partial game (before leaving with injury) at the Atlanta Falcons. With the Packers’ defense performing below average in getting off the field on third downs, I’m going with the over Hall’s passing yards prop, which is set at 214.5.

  • The Prop: Jaren Hall Over 214.5 Passing Yards (-119)

Vikings VS. Packers Predictions

Minnesota started as 3-point favorites at home, and their lines on the spread have moved to -0.5.

I like the matchup between the Vikings’ offense vs. the Packers’ defense in this matchup. In their most recent game, the Packers gave up 26 first downs and should struggle once again. I like the Vikings to cover at home with a spread of -0.5.
