Monday Night Football brings one of the best matchups of the season to Minneapolis. The 6-1 Bills visit the 6-1 Vikings, with Carson Wentz starting for Minnesota and the NFL’s top defense standing between Buffalo and another win.

Buffalo comes in looking like the best team in the AFC. The Bills buried Baltimore 36-10 last week, and Josh Allen remains the most dangerous dual-threat quarterback in the league. With James Cook carrying the load on the ground, Buffalo has been one of the most efficient offenses in football.
Minnesota had the NFL’s last perfect record until Detroit beat the Vikings last week. They’ll now lean on their defense, the stingiest in the league, and Wentz to get back on track at home.
Odds are subject to change
The defense travels, and it’s home. Minnesota’s defense has kept almost every game it has played this season low-scoring, with only one of seven going over the total. Under the roof at U.S. Bank Stadium with a loud primetime crowd, that unit becomes even tougher to solve.
Buffalo’s last win comes with an asterisk. The 36-10 win over Baltimore looks dominant, but the Ravens lost Lamar Jackson on their first offensive snap and Tyler Huntley later in the game. That result is a big reason the Bills are favored, and it may be inflating the price.
The bounce-back spot. Teams coming off their first loss tend to show up with something to prove. Minnesota will be motivated, at home and playing in front of a national audience.
This is exactly what First Bet Cover is for. You’re getting plus money on a home team with the league’s best defense in a game that should be decided by one score. Bet $100 on Minnesota to win outright and you collect $245 if the Vikings get it done. If Buffalo wins, BetMGM refunds your $100 in bonus bets.
Allen is the one player who can break any defense, and his ability to extend plays with his legs is the biggest threat to Minnesota’s plan. If he gets loose on scrambles, the Vikings will need Wentz to keep pace. That’s the risk, and the safety net is why it’s worth taking.
Two 6-1 teams and a home underdog with real upside. New users can claim up to $1,500 in First Bet Cover on Vikings vs. Bills with BetMGM bonus code FOXNEWS.
