MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Oddsmakers have the Philadelphia Eagles as 3.5 point underdogs at home against the Minnesota Vikings this weekend.
Both teams are coming off wins they barely eked out. The Eagles held off a late Falcons drive to win 15-10, while the Vikings needed a walk off Stefon Diggs touchdown to overcome a late comeback by the New Orleans Saints.
So, with both teams similarly built (offenses led by backup quarterbacks, strong running games and stout defenses), who are the experts picking in this weekend’s NFC Championship game?
