The surprisingly undefeated Minnesota Vikings still have their doubters but they are gradually converting them. And that includes the betting market.

For the first time this season, Minnesota is the betting favorite to win the NFC North. Additionally, the odds are -105 at DraftKings, which means the betting market projects them as having higher than 50% odds.

The Detroit Lions began the season as the favorite and held that position until the Vikings improved to 4-0 on Sunday. The Lions host the Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football as four-point favorites.

The Vikings defeated the Green Bay Packers on the road. At 2-2, the Pack is now +650 to win the division, while Detroit is +175. The Bears are a +1400 longshot.

Elsewhere, Minnesota is +1400 to win the Super Bowl, which classifies them as tied for the sixth favorite.

Minnesota coach Kevin O’Connell is the +200 betting favorite to win Coach of the Year. Plus, quarterback Sam Darnold is now the fifth MVP favorite with +1300 odds.
