Coming off the worst performance of his young NFL career, Brock Purdy is looking to rebound in a big way as the San Francisco 49ers head to Minnesota to take on the Vikings on Monday Night Football as Week 7 comes to a close.
With “Purdy is bad” truthers coming out guns blazing, Mr. Irrelevant might need to shoulder a bigger load with a hobbled Christian McCaffrey, Trent Williams doubtful, and Deebo Samuel out.
You can see how I’m betting on the Brock Purdy odds as we dive into the MNF odds in my free NFL picks below.

The value of hosting an NFL playoff game is on display when the Miami Dolphins visit the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Wild Card Round on Saturday night.
The temperatures in Arrowhead Stadium will be very different from the fun and sun of Miami, with this potentially being one of the coldest games in recent NFL history.
How will those chilly temps impact the Dolphins and their NFL odds?

It’s not been a pretty start to the season for the Denver Broncos, particularly the offense, which ranks among the worst through three weeks.
However, opportunity knocks on Sunday vs. a banged-up Tampa Bay Buccaneers secondary, and my Broncos vs. Buccaneers predictions believe Bo Nix will answer the bell.
Here are my best free NFL picks for this Week 3 showdown on September 22.
Broncos vs Buccaneers prediction
My best betBo Nix Over 184.5 passing yards (-115 at BetMGM)
My analysis
Bo Nix and this highly-regarded crop of rookie quarterbacks has been highly disappointing to start the year. However, the Denver Broncos pivot made big strides from Week 1 to Week 2, and his passing yards prop of 181.5 is …
Brendan Rodgers says Leicester are aiming to achieve “a result that will be heard around the world” when they take on Manchester United on Sunday with qualification for the Champions League on the line.
A Leicester win would lift them back into the top four above United, who would be left hoping Chelsea lose at home against Wolves. Rodgers believes United will go into the showdown at the King Power Stadium with more pressure.

“We want to qualify for the Champions League, they need to,” he said. “If you analyse budgets and everything else, we should actually be nowhere near the position of Manchester United. That’s the reality. This…
“I think I’m technically unemployed, so any managers, hit me up on WhatsApp,” were Adebayo Akinfenwa’s words in a live television pitch-side interview after scoring at Wembley to clinch promotion to League One with AFC Wimbledon six years ago – a come-and-get me-plea if there ever was one – and so it seems fitting that one of the game’s household names will return there for one last kick, one last dance, to bring down the curtain on 22 years as a professional. He ended up fielding offers from from Argentina to Australia but signed for Wycombe Wanderers, where an initial one-year deal has turned into a six-year stay and the best days of his career. “I remember looking in my DMs, there were CEOs and I thought: ‘I should have done this years ago!’”…
Brenden Aaronson scored a 95th-minute equaliser for Leeds United as they began their Championship campaign with a thrilling 3-3 draw versus Portsmouth at Elland Road.
Aaronson, who spent the 2023-24 season on loan at Union Berlin, squeezed his finish into the bottom-left corner deep into stoppage time to deny John Mousinho s newly promoted visitors a dream start to the season.
Pascal Struijk s early penalty gave Leeds the lead but they were quickly pegged back by Elias Sorensen s leveller, and Portsmouth then inched ahead on two occasions.
Callum Lang s stunning strike from distance put them 2-1 up shortly before half-time, only for Wilfried Gnonto to drag Leeds level just 54 seconds into the second half, beating Will Norris with a clever reverse finish.
