Packers will rely heavily on two-time selected pro bowl  running back Josh Jacobs  against the eagles number one defense but this kid has quietly been a fierce competitor in his last eight games scoring a touchdown in each of them and will be highly motivated after saying this past week that he doesn't want to win a playoff game he wants to win a Superbowl. 

Say what you will in the thinking that Packers having no chance because of their injuries but good coaches and I think Matt lefleur is one of the most underrated coaches in the NFL will make adjustments filling in spots to accommodate the teams injuries to key players

Packers were eight points underdog and won outright on the road last year in Dallas by over two touchdowns in the wildcard round.

Packers started the year having the youngest teams in football with and average age of 25 years old. 

Also Lefleur in his last three playoff games has lost by no more than five points.

Not taking anything away from Philly believe me but I really believe Packers are going to be the team here to cover and possibly really surprise if they can have themselves a complete graded A game showing.

Packers + 4.5 

(10-5 posted)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know about Watson out and Alexander out both due to knee injuries but I also know that last year in the Wild card games that three favorites won and three dogs won outright with four total dogs covering.

I also know that Matt lafleur past three playoff games have been decided by five points or less and almost made the NFC championship game last season. (I really think that Matt is definitely underrated)

Lot of talk about Saquon Barkley and rightfully so that cat is badass. 

The Packers have a legitimate running back in pro bowl. Select Josh Jacobs who was used lightly against the bears but did score a touchdown and now has eight rushing touchdowns in his last eight games. (Will be a force to reckon with come Sunday afternoon)

And did you know that back in 2010 when the Green Bay Packers won the super bowl that they were the 8th seed going into the wild Card round and ended up winning it all at Cowboys stadium! (Packers 31-Steelers 28)

The line opened at Philly minus 4 and a 1/2 and  remains at four and a half and from what I see many are all over this Philadelphia eagles team and in order For the Packers to win this game they will need to have their A game.

I believe they'll come prepared. I believe that this game will be hard fought and I think that the Green Bay Packers have a shot of winning this game outright. But I will take these points for a bit of insurance in case needed in the end In what I see is a very well fought game from both sides.

Tail or fade your money Your choice I'm just throwing out there the way I see it and for me the play is:

Green Bay Packers and whatever the line is come Sunday morning.

@EastsideBangers

 Thanks for clarifying EsB good luck on your plays this weekend it's just bothersome when people such as this that bring no substance at all to the forum and are posting only to annoy and bash those many including you and myself that are sharing their plays thoughts and reasoning that's upsetting.

@Digitalkarma

 Oh I don't touch that sport no more lol. That league is a joke now. I tried to watch it, it was just laughable after a few minutes I could imagine how frustrating it must be to bet on it!

100% Ditto! 

@Digitalkarma

 Definitely nice to see you back on the Football forum Digi as you always bring great insight and yes it's nice to see ( though we wish it was our beloved bears) most all of our division (except the bears) in the hunt for a spot in the big show coming out of the NFC North

Hey Digi what up bro?

was about to call you M.I.A.

Good to see all is well

I miss your posts bud as You always bring good stuff to the forum 

You've been tied up in the NBA forum?

@lookingtowin

 Good points

Green bay with 4.5 points are worth some attention one would think including myself and thrown into a teaser at a +10.5 seems to be solid as a blowout is something that I really don't see here.

@mcdirtly

Now Why would you start such a delusional thread like this?

It appears that we have several Eagle backers in this thread and if that's the case and in your eyes the Eagles are going to the big show then by all means grab yourself that +600 and good luck.

Are they contenders?.... Absolutely!

Could they make the Superbowl?..... Absolutely!

Could they win the Superbowl? If they get there... Absolutely!

Could the Packers beat them if they are clicking on all cylinders?........ Absolutely!

Never going to happen to consistently make that or any amount to the plus daily gambling.

But with that being said a small return on gambling investments daily for a fortunate winning streak (if your really good at handicapping) is very obtainable but the problem is that the overwhelming majority won't settle for that small return and will go and gamble an additional game and never pull a profit back and then find themselves in chase mode and that's when they find themselves doomed.

It's funny how those same people that are up a hundred for the day are the same people that have cds in the bank for 2000 to generate and wait for seven months or more to profit that same hundred that not only gets taxed but the interest rate would have to be 5% to even put you in that position in the first place and will be awhile before that interest rate is that high again.

But sadly many don't want that Hundred or less daily because to a gambler and it's obsession it's mere pittens! 

Shame on those that think this way and unfortunately there are many.

As we speak the lions are the favorites to win the Superbowl at a +300 the eagles are double that at a +600 

I was all gun hoe with Philadelphia especially Barkleys performance against the cowboys ...but that was the Cowboys.

Now the lions played a top of the league defense last night and manhandled them just the same.

This lions team is for real and have learned a lot from last year and if they continue to get key players back and healthy with the needed rest...watch out!

@UnderdogKing

 Yes Darnold definitely was hurried, rushed, pressured and forced to throw early and cause of it lost the game big.

But still out of character from a team that possessed mostly offense throughout the season and as of late.

But with this kind of adjustment that the lions displayed tonight if it continues going forward they might just be punching their ticket to the big show in a big way.

@RavensOsNHoes

 Absolutely 

That they can play both sides of the ball which surprises me because I have never seen this kind of defensive side of them or any indication that they could do such as I have seen many of games where their defense has been less than desirable in most cases.

Right?

Exclamation point!

I thought it was a good call, and the Vikings were definitely set up and playing the run but it was indeed tipped and therefore not executed which if it would of been would of been a big gainer

Wow! Bears money line Swampy?

If that one comes through for you today that would really be what I call...... draining the Swamp!

Good luck today with your games bud

Atlanta -8

I like Atlanta in the spot because they struggle  with teams above.500 and they have beaten some of those during the regular season but for the most part their wins have come against below 500 teams.

Definitely they don't want to end the season with a losing record and we'll play against the team that they should dominate and I'm expecting they will in front of their hometown fans and end their season with a cover. 

The pick 

Atlanta-8

10-4 (posted)

Good luck whatever you decide to play today and a special knock to those, that justlikeplay.

@Exquisite

 You do realize if Boswell misses that 54 yard field goal that put it within that two points Cincinnati covers correct? 

But since he was told to execute it perfectly and is one of the best if not arguably the best field goal kicker in the league he did so and now you can cry fix.?

No doubt you need to reevaluate your way of thinking to the outcome of this game to something a little more believable.

Good luck Mac
