Which wagers are we keeping an eye on this week? These three are ourJordan Addison, 58.5 yards in receptions: Above(-115) or Below(-115)
After what amounted to a coming-out party for Addison last week against San Francisco, the Vikings now have to play a Packers team that currently has some issues in the secondary.

Darnell Savage and Eric Stokes were recently placed on injured reserve, and Jaire Alexander’s participation in practise this week has been restricted.

In this one, Addison is the hot hand, and Kirk Cousins will probably keep feeding him this week. To be honest, I’m shocked that Addison’s projection is so low.

For the first time ever, Akers outran Mattison in carries during a game last week (10 to 8), and it appears that going forward, they may share the carries more fairly. As I’ve said previously, Akers simply seems like the more explosive back, and if given the chance, I believe he can easily surpass this mark on Sunday.

The performance:

Those are the bets we’re looking at for this one, folks. Are there any specific ones that you’ve got your eye on?

Unless there’s an injury, the Green Bay Packers won’t be able to replace Jordan Love this season, so it makes sense for them to acquire his assistance before the NFL trade deadline.Green Bay has an impressive roster of skill-position players, but they are the youngest collective group in the league and have made their share of rookie mistakes this season.

The Packers have struggled to score, or even push the ball down the field in the passing game, since Week 2. The most logical path to relevancy down the stretch then is to add some talent who can spark the offense and help Love develop more confidence.

In this regard, Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton is the best option, according to Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report on Friday, October 27. The Broncos are still 2-5 and among the league’s most likely sellers before the deadline of October 31, despite their victory over the Packers last weekend.

After losing three straight games, it’s becoming increasingly obvious that the Green Bay Packers won’t be competitive in 2023. Their attention should only be on quarterback Jordan Love’s development and evaluation.

The Packers ought to inquire as to whether Denver would be open to trading Courtland Sutton, one of its receivers. Sutton is a very dependable option even though he might not have the upside of a true No. 1 receiver. He has one 1,100-yard season on his record. When targeted, he has produced a passer rating of 125.2 this season. Love’s development may be significantly impacted by Sutton’s dependability.

At age 28, Sutton is on pace for the perhaps the best season of his six-year NFL career. Through seven contests he has caught 31 passes for 351 yards and 5 touchdowns, per Pro Football Reference. Extrapolated out over a 17-game season, Sutton is on pace for a career-high 75 catches and a career-high 12 touchdowns. His pace of 852 receiving yards would be the second-highest total of his career behind the 1,112 he tallied in 2019 — Sutton’s only Pro-Bowl year to this point.
