Minnesota Vikings 2025 NFL Betting Odds & Picks
For the second time in three seasons, the Minnesota Vikings had a strong regular season that was followed by a playoff flop. In an interesting twist, the Vikings tried to trade quarterback Sam Darnold during the 14-3 season and finally got rid of him after a bad playoff loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Now the Vikings will transition to JJ McCarthy, a first-round draft pick in 2023. Following an ugly final two games in 2024, the Vikings prioritized the offensive line, which failed Darnold at the worst time. McCarthy should have a strong interior with the new arrivals, although that might depend on how quickly left tackle Christian Darrisaw recovers from his knee injury.

2025 Minnesota Vikings Schedule, Results & Record
Minnesota also focused on the interior of the defense, signing veterans Jonathan Allen and Javon Hargrave. But the team took a gamble paying two defensive tackles who have regressed over the past few seasons. On the other hand, Allen and Hargrave could be productive playing for a defense that’s loaded with edge rushers. The Vikings don’t have many roster needs, but the secondary appears a bit thin with Bynum’s departure. Also, this team could use another outside cornerback if defensive coordinator Brian Flores continues to use Byron Murphy Jr. in the slot.
The Minnesota Vikings, who finished second to the Lions in the division, will hand the keys to second-year quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who watched from the sidelines as a rookie due to a knee injury.

The Minnesota Vikings were founded in 1961 as an NFL expansion franchise. They were born as a shot at the American Football League, which intended to place a franchise in the Twin Cities with prospective owner Max Winter. But when Winter was offered an NFL franchise, he left the AFL at the altar.
The Vikings have never won a Super Bowl. However, they had an era of glory from 1968 through 1978 that cemented their bond with the state and its fans. The Vikings made four Super Bowls from 1969 through 1976 but were never able to claim the championship.
Bud Grant coached those great Viking teams and is the most revered name in team history. Grant is in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Grant’s first Super Bowl team was led by the swashbuckling quarterback Joe Kapp. And then QB Fran Tarkenton led the Vikings in their other three Super Bowl appearances.
Most of all, the Vikings were known for their tremendous defenses in those days. Paul Krause, Carl Eller, and Alan Page were Hall of Fame legends on that era's Purple People Eaters defenses.
Since that golden age, the Vikings have had several good teams and some close calls. But they have never made it back to Super Sunday. Since 1998, the Vikings have lost four NFC Conference Championship Games.

Betting Rules & Policies
Free Play Rules
- Free plays cannot be used on proposition bets.

- Free Plays that are left unused for 180 days will be removed from your account.
ROLLOVER
- Did you know that on all deposits made at BookMaker, there is a rollover requirement: an amount of betting action you must fulfill before you are eligible to make a withdrawal.
- Did you know that rollovers are calculated by multiplying the amount initially credited to your account a certain number of times? Yes! If you deposit without claiming any bonus, the rollover will always be 1x (one-time) your deposit amount. If you do claim a deposit bonus, the rollover will be higher and is based on the deposit plus bonus amount.
Wager disputes (claims)
If you disagree with any aspect of a wager you’ve placed, you are welcome to log an official dispute (commonly known as a “claim”). Claims must be reported no later than 15 (fifteen) calendar days following the settlement of the wager.
If following an initial review of the case there remains any doubt regarding the wager type, line, market, amount, or any other detail, the claim will be escalated to the BookMaker management team. All decisions made by them are final.
Wager Cash Out - How it works
With the Cash Out feature you can choose to eliminate a wager that's already been placed, and receive back either a portion, or your full stake amount.
Cash Out is selectively available on certain events, fixtures, and markets.
In order to see if a wager is eligible to be cashed out, simply navigate to your Bet Slip and check the 'My Open Bets' tab. If eligible, the Cash Out button will be displayed.
It’s also important to note that Cash Out is not contributing to any bonus or promotion including Bet Point accumulation and Rollover for releasing bonus cash.
