line went from sf -4 to minnesota -2.5 its amazing how overhyped the vikings are and people will be suprised when the niner defense is very solid this year.  its all about the depth that was drafted over the years.

You have the worst qb in all of football, an atrocious patchwork offensive line. Put your entire bankroll on San Fran so I don't have to see you the rest of the year.


there is no way kaepernick is the worst qb in football come on lets be real

I'm a Lions Fan, trust me when I say the vikes typically open week one strong, you got a hella of a qb, stout and much improved D (most improved last year statistically), a chip on shoulder Adrian, etc versus the mess that is the Niners. Gimme  Zimmerman/Norv all day to bring it. And sorry Frito, Levi stadium has not been too kind to the niners, .500 I believe and that's when they had double the team. My only concern for vikes is pressing a rookie at OT. But defensively this is a team that loves blitzing up the middle and I believe Kap will fold like a chair while his Secondary will have hands full w Peterson, Patterson, Wallace, and Johnson. Again as I say, we only speculate and anything can happen but the Vikings IMO are an 8 win team playing a 4/5 max.

GL all this year!


looks like you have bought into the vikings hype hahaha. Did you really say that the niner defense would have their hands full with coradalle patterson?? guy is garbage

that argument didn't work last year, when they lost to the bears 28-20, when the stadium was ACTUALLY new. bold strategy, cotton.

Solid work, AMD.

Homers GTFO LOL.  So stupid to take offense when somebody places a bet against 'your' team.

Ever since they took away the read option from Kap he has been frozen in the backfield, paralyzed even.

The book is out on him and it is an easy one. Keep him in the pocket and make him deliver the rock. When he has to do that, he just sucks.  If you cannot see that, give up gambling, right now.

Also, Niners just melted down with one of the best coaches in the game. Throw in a new coach and a locker room in disarray and this team is going to have a very, very long and losing year.

Teddy is the real deal and they win, easy.

interesting opinions here we will have to wait and see but either way i cant really see either team blowing the other out. This should be a low scoring game decided by a fg. 20-17 niners.

I liked the Bengals only giving 3 points to a bad Raiders team.  I get they have improved and they are at home with awesome fans, but I actually think with the returning players for the Bengals they have improved more, and to a very high quality on offense?

Liked my pick, until I see you on the other side, any reasoning?

Absolutely agree, Crash. Can't wait for the game. Chaloots, Insatiable and I will be in sec 229, row 1, seat 1-4,  if anyone wants to stop over for a beer

Week 1 in any sport is kinda like throwing darts. Week 1 can humble us quickly. However, I don't really see a week spot in the Oakland offense this season. They went out and paid money to fill holes on the O line and I think Murray has all the tools to have a breakout season especially with the weapons the Raiders have at WR. The Raiders passing game will allow them to move the ball on the ground and vice versa. Janikowski still has one of the strongest legs in the game, he'll kick it from 60. Raiders front 7 are solid. Raiders weak link is secondary but I'm not scared of Dalton and neither are the Raiders. I really like what the Raiders have assembled in their coaching staff. Theyre football players with football minds. They've all played the game and Norton Jr. will do a lot with his front 7 to get in the face of Dalton. The Raiders will be much improved. We say this every year about the Raiders and Lions but this year, I believe it. The Raiders have a very difficult schedule as they play in the second most difficult division in football so I'm not sure what their season win/loss will be but betting them against the spread should be a profitable year since they will be dogs 90% of the time. The Bengals are an enigma, they go as Dalton goes. I've studied them a little bit in the offseason and as of now, I can only wager based on Dalton tendencies. Yes, the Bengals will be solid this season bit in this matchup, I like what the Raiders bring to the table in terms of X/O's.
