   Green Bay is clearly the better team coming into Soldier Field.  Da Bears played unusally sloppy D in ending the last game against  Seattle, making Chicago backers sweat out the cover. Phew! I'm really concerned about laying  -3.5 with the Pack, in what figures to be more like a lot of their divisional contest results. Because I see Green Bay advancing to the SB, I'm jumping on a good thing before the number moves up.

GREEN BAY  -  3.5

Best Interperspective Vegas Line of The Year ......

However, Don't let ""THE LINE PLAY YOU"".......

Lay Lady Lay, Lay Out Across on My Big Brass Bed.

Well its going to be a balmy 25 in Chicago so the weather is not a factor in this game. All the hype is on Green Bay which is great for Chicago

I see both QB'S getting sacked and pressured alot more in this game then the last games they played. So i look at the running game and cant see Jackson or Starks measuring up to Forte thats a huge edge with the Bears playing a more controlled time possesion offense with Martz the last 5weeks.

A huge advantage on the receiving corps fpr GB but with tha cove rage 2 the only time Seattle could throw was when there were down by 25

Special Teams Hester in a land  slide and same wih kicking game. Defensivelely both are = the Bears are Healthier

So the oddsmakers made a mistake and put the wrong team the favorite because of the win against a bad Falcon team DA Bears win this game 19 -17 and the Super Bowl Shuffle lives on again and coach Dikta come out to lead the parade against the Jets

Packers   -3

STFU Joe6Pack. Vue is a respected capper and does very well in the NFL & CFB. The reason I'm leaning towards Chicago this weekend because it's a divisional rivalry game and I believe it's going to be a lot closer than the betting public expect.

2 excellent defenses but i think GB is younger and a little better. Rogers is a rising star Cutler a known quantity. Have PIT xxlarge, small par with GB.

Rogers had the second highest completion percentage in a 300 yard passing game in NFL postseason history. Thats not hype that the real deal.  He wont do that in Chicago but he will score touchdowns and keep the Chicago D on the field for a long time. Besides that its not Cutlers time yet.

GB -3

Green Bay all the way. 

Green Bay -3 & under 43.5

CHI 14   GB 13

You mean CHI +3............

gonna take the packers here early at -3.... 

only see this line rising as it has gone to 3.5 on most books...

will look to buy back if the line get much higher... expecially if it hits 4.5...
