Bonus Pick: MJM Sportsline is excited to “officially” launch our website service as a premier provider of NFL winning picks. We are providing an additional “Free Pick” for Week 1 action of the 2010 season. Don’t forget to sign up for other free picks on our Home page or Contact Us page. Good luck to all of our clients and to those interested in using our service in the future.
Our bonus “free pick” is:
Take the MINNESOTA VIKINGS plus the points in the season opener vs. the New Orleans Saints. Vegas odds have the game fluctuating between 4 1/2 and 5 points with the Saints being the favorites. The Over and Under total opened at 48 1/2 points and hasn’t moved much all week.
Here are some trends that support our recommendation:
- Minnesota is 5-2 straight up and 6-1 vs. the spread against New Orleans over the last 10 years.
- The games have gone 5-1-1 for the OVER the last 7 match ups.
- New Orleans games have gone OVER the total points (20-13-1) at HOME since Sean Payton was hired as head coach four years ago.
- Intangibles: Minnesota has revenge on its mind. Minnesota completely outplayed New Orleans in last year’s Championship game and nearly outgained New Orleans by a two to one margin. Regardless of what’s been said by both teams, Brett Favre was on the receiving end of cheap shots. Minnesota will remember this and send a few “remember me” hits towards New Orleans in honor of Gregg Williams and his cheap shot philosophy.
MJM typically offers 5 preferred or top plays on a weekly basis for purchasers of our packages. Keep in mind that this should be considered a good average with some weeks having more or less picks for a particular week. Top plays may also involve Over and Under selections.
