Week 1 Free NFL Picks: Minnesota Vikings @ San Diego Chargers 2011 NFL Week 1 Vegas Odds, Free Picks, and Expert Predictions on CBS 9/11/11: Quarterback Donovan McNabb will make his debut for the Minnesota Vikings on the road at Qualcomm Stadium to take on quarterback Philip Rivers and his San Diego Chargers on Sunday afternoon at 4:15 PM ET and can be seen on FOX Sports. After winning their divisions in 2009 both of these teams started 2-5 last season and neither made the playoffs. San Diego won 7 of their last 9 and finished first overall on offense and defense in the NFL but the notorious slow starts under head football coach Norm Turner have seemed to hinder the team toward the end of the season and in the playoffs have certainly not been successful. Starting the season at home against a non-playoff team with a new quarterback and effectively a first year head coach as Leslie Frazier filled in for Chilly as interim head coach last season as was just named full time in the off season should help the Chargers start faster but it’s no guarantee. The odds makers at Bodog have the San Diego Chargers -9 point favorite at home against the Minnesota Vikings.
The San Diego Chargers finished the preseason 2-2 with a 20-17 loss to the San Francisco 49ers but those games don’t mean anything now. Quarterback Phillip Rivers had an awesome year individually last season completing 357 of 541 passes for over 4,700 yards and 30 touchdowns with 13 interceptions but he needs to convert those stats into wins that count. The Chargers are hoping to get full healthy seasons from tight end Antonio Gates and wide out Vincent Jackson to help in key situations. The total has gone OVER in 5 of San Diego’s last 6 games when playing Minnesota. Vegas odds makers have the San Diego Chargers as +750 odds to win the 2012 Super Bowl.
The Vikings quarterback Brett Favre has finally it seems retired, they traded Tavaris Jackson to Seattle and picked up an aging Donavan McNabb from Washington who didn’t want him after he threw more picks than touchdowns for them last season. The Vikings do have the most prolific running back over the past 4 seasons in Adrian Peterson with over 5,700 yards during that period. Vegas odds makers have the over/under for the total score at 42 points combined of the Minnesota Vikings and San Diego Chargers.
I like the Vikings to cover on the road!
