Vikings currently sit at +3000 to win the NFC and +5000 to win the Super Bowl. To that, Warren Sharp adds this...
Best Sleeper Bet to win the NFC: Minnesota Vikings (+3000)
The Vikings were arguably just a quarterback away in 2025. Their defense was third in yards per play allowed (4.7) and fourth in points per drive allowed (1.69) while getting pressure at the highest rate in the league (44.5%). There are more issues on offense outside of just J.J. McCarthy, but a veteran upgrade or just a step forward from McCarthy would put the Vikings in a great spot in 2026.
