I blame the holder. Is this even close to a decent hold? The best Blair could do is try to make contact where the ball met the ground
any higher on the ball it would have hit long snapper in the azz. WTF points the ball away from the kicker with the lases in?

Should have had this kid holding. He knows the right angle to hold it.

Seattle's home field is arguably more than 3, some cappers rate it as high as a 4.   So -2.5 is saying the Vikings are as much as 1.5 points better on a neutral field.   As mentioned earlier Seattle's margin of victory in most games has been 1-4 points.   Like Green Bay their record is somewhat deceiving. 

I think the line is accurate, opened 3 and dropped so the market is now saying 2.5.   I would rather take 3 if I were betting the Vikings.  Typically favorites get bet up near game time though not always, 3's might be available come Sunday, hard to say, sometimes it swings in unpredictable directions.

I think your right. I expect the line to go back to 3 but not until late. There isn't a real good bet to make here.

Here's the problem facing Russell Wilson: if it stays close, that guy is going to make the plays to win the game at the end. He's clutch. I don't trust the Vikings or Cousins to make plays in crunch time in a high profile game like this. Love to be wrong.
