Vikings vs Broncos Head-to-Head History

Vikings and Dobbs Just Keep Winning
Minnesota started the season just 1-4 and looked dead in the water when starting quarterback Kirk Cousins went down with an Achilles injury.
But Cardinals’ cast-off Josh Dobbs came in at the trade deadline and has led the Vikings to back-to-back wins. Minnesota has now won five in a row, are 6-4 and well in the hunt for the NFC North title with Detroit leading at 7-2.
With Dobbs at QB, Minnesota has won 31-28 and 27-19. He’s thrown for three touchdowns and run in two more on the ground in those two games.

Will Lutz Winning Field Goal Extends Denver Winning Streak
Denver is coming in off a comeback 24-22 road win in Buffalo on Monday Night Football with Will Lutz kicking the game-winning field goal. Denver was aided by two Josh Allen interceptions as well as two lost fumbles by the Bills. They were also aided by a 12th man on the field penalty to Buffalo which allowed Lutz a do-over on the game-winning kick.
They were out-gained 369-300 in total yards, but held a huge advantage in total plays (71-52) and time of possession (37:21-22:39).
The win brings Denver to 4-5 and sees them riding a three-game winning streak after also winning 24-9 over Kansas City and 19-17 over Green Bay.

Vikings vs Broncos Prediction
Both teams have been Under teams this season with Minnesota 7-3 to the Under and Denver 5-4.
While Minnesota has been an Under machine overall when looking at NFL team trends, they are 2-0 to the Over their past two games. They’re also scorching hot from an against-the-spread perspective, having gone 5-0 ATS in their past five, all wins.
Since Denver’s defense has tightend up, so too have Under bets been cashing in their games. The Broncos are riding a 4-0 Under run. All three of their ATS wins have also come in their past three games, all wins.
A prime-time game finally went Over the total on TNF, but that still makes the Under 25-8.
When it comes to our Vikings vs Broncos picks we’ll go with the road underdog Vikings. Dobbs has been incredibly efficient with the football this season only throwing five interceptions and none so far with Minnesota. He, as well as tight end TJ Hockenson just had career days last week and star WR Justin Jefferson could make a return.
Brian Flores has the Vikings blitzing at the highest rate in the league (49%) and Russell Wilson has not performed well in that setting this season. The Broncos have also been a poor team to back in a favorites role being 2-10-1 ATS as a favorite in their last 13 games and 7-15-1 ATS as a favorite in their past 23.
Vikings vs Broncos Picks: Vikings +2.5
