Expert Picks
The Packers are a massive public side here and for good reason. The Giants stink. Also, to be honest, Green Bay has kinda stunk over the last few weeks, which is why this is the perfect get-right spot for Aaron Rodgers & Co. The Packers have lost two of their last three and got absolutely embarrassed by the 49ers. New York neither has the playmakers to keep up nor the defense to stop Rodgers consistently. Double-digit win for the Pack.
The Green Bay offense has been stalled the last three weeks against quality defenses in San Francisco, Carolina and the Chargers. Before that three-game stretch, the Packers scored 27 or more points in five of their previous six games. The Giants defense ranks 24th in yards per play allowed. New York went under last week against Chicago's defense after going over in four of their previous five games. Green Bay's defense ranks 31st in yards per play allowed.
The Packers looked awful last week in San Francisco and have lost two of their last three games by a combined 63-19. That was against two of the top four pass defenses in the league, though. The Giants (27th vs. the pass) are a far cry from that, and without Golden Tate and Evan Engram, it's hard to envision N.Y. being able to keep up, even if Green Bay is a bit overrated. The Giants are 1-4 ATS at home. Lay the points.
This is a get-right spot for the Packers, who should bounce back strong from their humiliation in San Francisco. The Giants are seriously banged-up while the injury news is better for Green Bay. The G-Men also have failed to cover their last four versus winning teams. Back Green Bay to improve to 6-0 ATS in its last six games following an ATS loss.
Until Giants rookie QB Daniel Jones learns to protect the football, it's hard to trust the team offensively. New York now faces a Green Bay defense that can flood the pocket in a variety of ways. Look for a massive bounce-back performance from QB Aaron Rodgers and the Packers' offense.
