Here’s the latest installment of the Play of the Day, which uses odds from the South Point. Our three sports writers started with a $10,000 bankroll — fictional, of course.

Minnesota Vikings at Kansas City Chiefs under-45 points: $330 to win $300

I caught the end of last week’s Cleveland Browns game and got pretty excited at seeing a hail mary touchdown with no time on the clock…until I realized the under was my Play of the Day. I was on the right side until that pass, so I’m owed a total sooner or later. Hopefully I can take it tonight.

The Chiefs’ defense concerns me a bit but there’s no way they score two touchdowns on interception returns like a couple weeks ago against the Cincinnati Bengals. Offensively I think both of these teams are capable of combining to go under the total. As long as the defenses play along — be decent, but not so good you’re scoring points — we should be fine.

Standings: Bern (42-33-1, $12,617), Keefer (37-39, $10,092), Brewer (30-43-3, $1,800)
