Pro Bowler Sidney Rice won’t be able to play for almost half the season, following his hip surgery on Monday. Rice had injured his hip in the NFC championship game against New Orleans Saints, the Super Bowl champions. The news of Rice’s absence from the team has left all the Minnesota Vikings supporters and NFL Betting fans disappointed.
The NFL betting fans were expecting excellent performance from the player this season. In the first two seasons, Rice had a combination of 46 receptions for 537 yards, along with eight touchdowns. In the last season, he caught 83 passes for 1312 yards along with eight touchdowns, and was successful in capturing a Pro Bowl bid.
Rice’s injury has added to the problems of the Vikes, as they are already dealing with Percy Harvin's migraine problem. Although there are reports about Javon Walker, former teammate of Favre, being chased by the Vikes to fill in for the injured player. But this news has failed to excite the NFL betting enthusiasts. Their NFL Odds to win the championship will be drastically affected if the injury riddled Vikes are not able to overcome the problem soon.
