Betting on the late afternoon NFL Week 1 slate
Week 1 of the NFL is always packed with exciting matchups. After the Detroit Lions face off against the Philadelphia Eagles at 1 p.m., new bettors might consider wagering on the 4 p.m. games, which feature the ever-dramatic quarterback Aaron Rodgers and his Green Bay Packers going head-to-head with the Minnesota Vikings, whose quarterback hails from a university in the Mitten State.
The NFL’s Week 1 slate features games scheduled for 4:25 p.m.
- Kansas City at Arizona
- The game between Las Vegas and the L.A. Chargers.
- Green Bay at Minnesota
- The Tennessee Titans will be hosting the New York Giants.
In Michigan, sports bettors have the option to stick with their homegrown favorites and decide between Rodgers (who is disliked by the entire state) and Kirk Cousins (who is only disliked by half of the state*).
On Friday afternoon, the betting lines indicated a close match, with the Packers holding a slight advantage of 1.5 points according to BetMGM Sportsbook. Minnesota had a money line of +100, whereas the Packers’ money line stood at -120. Additionally, the sportsbook set the over/under for the game at 47.
In the previous encounter on Jan. 2, Green Bay emerged victorious with a score of 37-10, although Cousins was unable to participate due to a rib injury. However, in the two matchups prior to that, with Cousins leading the way, the Vikings secured victories against the Packers on Nov. 21, 2021, with a score of 34-31, and on Nov. 1, 2020, with a score of 28-22.
In Detroit, our wish is for both teams to enjoy themselves and not come out as winners.
Our state rivalries are undoubtedly petty, so don’t even try to deny it.
