New Orleans Saints at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s New Orleans Saints at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The New Orleans Saints (5-9) and the Green Bay Packers (10-4) meet for Monday Night Football in Week 16 at Lambeau Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET (ESPN / ABC). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Saints vs. Packers odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Saints were tripped up by the Washington Commanders 20-19 last week, although they were able to cover as 7.5-point underdogs as the Under (44.5) cashed. New Orleans is a respectable 3-2 straight up (SU) and against the spread (ATS) in the past 5 games, while cashing the Under in 3 straight, and 4 of the past 5 outings.

The Packers have picked up 4 wins in the past 5 games, including a 30-13 road victory against the Seattle Seahawks last week. Green Bay has covered 4 in a row, while the Under has cashed in 2 of the past 3 games, and 4 of the previous 6 outings. The Under is also 6-3-1 in the past 10 outings.

Saints at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 30, Saints 12

Moneyline

The Packers (-1000) will set you back 10 times your potential return, which is way too much risk for a standalone wager or as part of your multi-leg parlay. Betting such heavy favorites is not a recommended long-term betting strategy, especially in the NFL.

PASS.

Against the spread

The PACKERS -14 (-110) are worth a look in the cold in Green Bay.

The Saints +14 (-110) are banged up, playing without Carr, Kamara and potentially Valdes-Scantling, who has been the team’s most effective receiver lately. It’s hard to envision where the scoring is going to come from for New Orleans.

The Packers are still jockeying for seeding in the upcoming NFC playoffs, so they’ll have their foot on the gas, taking advantage of a beaten up and beleaguered opponent.

Over/Under

UNDER 42.5 (-110) is the lean, but go with a half-unit play at most.

There is a concern that the Packers could to do most of the heavy lifting against this banged up Saints squad. It’s not hard to see Green Bay getting well into the 30s. But, where will the points come from for New Orleans?

Green Bay Packers at Seattle Seahawks odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Green Bay Packers at Seattle Seahawks odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Green Bay Packers (9-4) take on the Seattle Seahawks (8-5) on Sunday Night Football in Week 15. Kickoff from Lumen Field is set for 8:20 p.m. ET (NBC). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Packers vs. Seahawks odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Packers nearly pulled off the upset over the 12-1 Detroit Lions in a 34-31 loss Dec. 5. They covered as 3.5-point dogs. QB Jordan Love was 12-for-20 for 206 yards, 1 TD and 0 INTs. RB Josh Jacobs ran for 66 yards and 3 TDs. He has TDs in 4 straight games, racking up 8 of his 11 scores of the season during the stretch.

The Seahawks have won 4 straight after taking apart the Arizona Cardinals 30-18 as 3-point dogs. They did it without RB Kenneth Walker III (calf), and they’ll likely have to do it again, as he is doubtful for this one. RB Zach Charbonnet was more than capable filling in with a 22-134-2 line on the ground and 7-59-0 through the air.

Packers at Seahawks picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 31, Seahawks 27

Moneyline

These Packers and Seahawks haven’t faced one another since 2021 when QBs Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson were on the respective teams. The Packers have the 9th-best rushing defense in the league, and that means Seahawks QB Geno Smith is going to have to take care of the football. He has 14 TDs and 12 INTs on the year, and I don’t trust him in a playoff-type game.

I’d rather take the Packers on the spread, though, instead of paying -150 on the ML.

PASS.

Against the spread

Take the PACKERS -2.5 (-115) here, as The Pack have covered in 3 straight and are 7-2-1 ATS in the last 10 against Seattle. Seattle is surprisingly 3-4 straight up at home this year as that 12th man seems to have lost his voice.

Over/Under

This is a small total. The Packers are 7th in the NFL with 26.8 points per game, and Seattle is 14th at 23.2. The Packers have cashed Overs in 2 of the last 3 games, and Seattle has done so in 2 in a row.

Take the OVER 45.5 (-110).

Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

A NFC North rivalry hits Thursday Night Football as the Detroit Lions (11-1) host the Green Bay Packers (9-3). Kickoff is scheduled at 8:15 p.m. ET (Prime Video) from Ford Field in Motown. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Packers vs. Lions odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Two storied franchises in arguably the NFL’s most competitive division showcase their second matchup of the season. The Lions prevailed 24-14 in the first contest during rainy, wet conditions at Lambeau Field in Week 9, on the back of touchdowns by WR Amon-Ra St. Brown and RB Jahmyr Gibbs.

Since its only loss of the season, Week 2 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20-16, Detroit has rattled off 10 straight wins, a streak punctuated by its 23-20 escape in which the Chicago Bears botched a chance to tie or win in Lions territory in the final minutes.

The Packers rolled over the Miami Dolphins 30-17 at chilly Lambeau Field on Thanksgiving night to notch their seventh win in eight games.

Packers at Lions picks and predictions

Prediction

Lions 27, Packers 23

Moneyline

The biggest difference will be whether Alexander can suit up for the Packers and help contain the passing game. The lockdown cornerback has not yet played a divisional opponent this season, and his presence could force Detroit to adjust.

However, the Lions rank 7th in EPA per rush (0.03), so they’re comfortable in adjusting by leaning on Gibbs and RB David Montgomery. Green Bay can, of course, hold its own with Jacobs, as long as he’s healthy.

Even with Green Bay’s offensive stock matching Detroit’s almost position-for-position, siding against the Lions on their home turf would be a mistake.

Detroit’s (-178) ML listed on FanDuel Sportsbook offers better value than BetMGM in this market.

BET LIONS (-178) at FanDuel Sportsbook.

Against the spread

Books and bettors have generally priced Detroit correctly this season; the Lions have compiled a 9-3 record ATS. Green Bay has split the difference at 6-6.

The Packers will naturally keep this close, but in a toss-up, take the lesser juice ATS.

BET LIONS -3.5 (-105).

Over/Under

These squads are an identical 5-6-1 on the O/U, which likely has transpired because of their excellent run games that can slow down the pace and, in turn, scoring totals.

Many will point to the full week of rest for these teams after each played on Thanksgiving to favor a higher-octane offensive performance, and the above prediction credits plenty of touchdowns. This game will also take place indoors instead of in weather elements, which impacted their first meeting this year.

However, especially if Alexander plays, these 2 teams likely will try to eat as much clock as possible on the ground.

BET UNDER 51.5 (-110).

Miami Dolphins at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Miami Dolphins at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Miami Dolphins (5-6) ring in the holidays against the Green Bay Packers (8-3) with a Thanksgiving Day game. Kickoff Thursday from Lambeau Field is set for 8:20 p.m. EST (NBC). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Dolphins vs. Packers odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Phins have won 3 straight after a 34-15 win over the New England Patriots as 7.5-point favorites. QB Tua Tagovailoa is rounding into form as he threw for 317 yards and 4 TDs. WR Jaylen Waddle (8-144-1) and TE Jonnu Smith (9-87-1) balled out in the victory.

The Packers have won 2 straight and 6 of 7 games after a 38-10 beatdown of the beat-up San Francisco 49ers. They were 6-point faves in that one. RB Josh Jacobs controlled the game with 26 carries for 106 yards and 3 TDs. QB Jordan Love didn’t have to do a whole lot as he was 13-for-23 for 163 yards and 2 scores.

Dolphins at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 24, Dolphins 20

Moneyline

It’s slated to be 27 degrees for this game, and Miami is a warm-weather team that will likely flounder in the cold. However, -185 is too steep for me.

JOSH JACOBS OVER 74.5 RUSHING YARDS (-110) is a no-brainer for me. He has hit this mark in 5 straight games, and the cold weather will give Green Bay the advantage to run some clock.

Against the spread

Go easy here, and I would consider paying to scale it back to -2.5 (-150), but I will take the PACKERS -3.5 (-105). The Pack have gone 1-4 ATS over the last 5 games, and the Dolphins’ offense has looked good. But this weather is a different animal.

Over/Under

The Packers are 4-5-1 O/U in the last 10 games, and the Dolphins are 5-5. These teams last met in 2022 in Miami, and the Under hit with the Pack winning 26-20. The last time Miami was in Lambeau was 2018 and it was a 31-12 Packers victory with an Under cash.

I like the UNDER 47.5 (-105).

San Francisco 49ers at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s San Francisco 49ers at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The San Francisco 49ers (5-5) and Green Bay Packers (7-3) meet Sunday in a rematch from last season’s playoffs. Kickoff from Lambeau Field is set for 4:25 p.m. ET (FOX). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the 49ers vs. Packers odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

San Francisco lost 20-17 to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 11 while failing to cover as a 6-point favorite. The 49ers allowed a game-winning drive to the Seahawks to cap off a game where the Niners finished with over 33 minutes of possession. 49ers QB Brock Purdy will miss the game with a shoulder injury.

Green Bay narrowly escaped with a 20-19 win over the Chicago Bears Sunday while failing to cover as a 6-point favorite. The Packers blocked Chicago’s game-winning FG attempt just after QB Jordan Love rushed for a TD to put the Packers ahead.

The 49ers beat the Packers 24-21 in the NFC divisional round last season.

49ers at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 21, 49ers 10

Moneyline

PASS.

The Packers will pick up the win here as -250 favorites and with Purdy out, but they are not worth the risk as such heavy favorites. Pass on this play and bet on the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

LEAN PACKERS -5.5 (-110).

Green Bay is the much healthier team and has played like the better team this season. With how San Francisco has underperformed to this point of the season, and with Purdy’s injury, the Packers should be able to cover here.

This is a lean because the Packers are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games and because San Francisco is still a talented enough team to potentially make this a close game.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 44.5 (-110).

The Under has hit in back-to-back games for Green Bay and is 4-1-1 in the Packers’ last 6 overall. For San Francisco, the Under is also 2-0 in its last 2 overall and is 3-1 in its last 4 outings. The Under has also hit in each of the last 2 matchups between these squads.

With Purdy out, San Francisco’s offense will struggle, which will help this game stay Under 45 total points.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Green Bay Packers (6-3) face the Chicago Bears (4-5) on Sunday in the first of 2 meetings in the final 8 games of the season. Kickoff from Soldier Field is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Packers vs. Bears odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

These NFC North rivals both have endured erratic QB play, but the Packers have survived Jordan Love‘s struggles with health more effectively. Caleb Williams has endured rookie struggles behind a weak Bears offensive line.

Green Bay comes into this important NFC North showdown after a 24-14 loss to the Detroit Lions last week that halted a 4-game win streak. Chicago lost its third straight contest in Week 10 (19-3 to the New England Patriots) and have looked bewildered since falling to a Washington Commanders last-second Hail Mary touchdown in Week 8.

Prediction

Packers 24, Bears 17

Moneyline

I would’ve thrown a sprinkle bet on the Bears if the moneyline were +300 or better. The current +200 is not elevated enough for me to care.

PASS.

Against the spread

Both squads are middling ATS (Chicago 4-4-1, Green Bay 4-5), but I’m going to side with Matt LaFleur’s Pack following a bye week against Matt Eberflus.

Lay the wood. BET GREEN BAY -5.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Even on the back of both teams’ rough QB play and uninspiring Over/Under records (Green Bay 4-4-1, Chicago 3-6), this matchup lines up to surpass what feels like a generous total.

Bettors should readily buy low that the talented skill players on each side will step up, especially the Packers’ crop coming out of their bye week.

Lions at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Lions 31, Packers 27

Moneyline

PASS.

The moneyline has value for both sides, but the preferred side to play the favorite is on the spread as the wager has more bang for your buck. In this case, pass on a moneyline play.

Against the spread

BET LIONS -2.5 (-115).

The Packers are just too banged up to take here. They have their starting RB, CB and QB listed as questionable. The Packers are also just 2-3 ATS in their last 5 games. Love has also been far too turnover-prone, having thrown 9 INTs in 6 starts.

The Lions have covered in 5 straight games, 3 on the road. They are 3-0 ATS as a favorite of 5 or fewer points. QB Jared Goff has a 74.1% completion rate and just 4 turnovers. He’s a more trustworthy option, and the Lions are the less injured side.

Back LIONS -2.5 (-115).

Over/Under

BET OVER 48.5 (-110).

The Lions have been on fire offensively and have scored 47 or more points in 2 of their last 3 games. They have gone Over in 4 straight and are 4-3 O/U on the season. They are 2-1 O/U on the road.

The Packers are 4-3-1 O/U on the season and have scored 30 or more points in 2 of their last 3 games. They have allowed at least 22 popints in 2 straight as well, so their defense has struggled more often than it did earlier in the season.

With that in mind, back OVER 48.5 (-110).

Green Bay Packers at Jacksonville Jaguars odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Green Bay Packers at Jacksonville Jaguars odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Jacksonville Jaguars (2-5) welcome the Green Bay Packers (5-2) to EverBank Stadium Sunday for NFL Week 8 action. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds around the Packers vs. Jaguars odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Packers beat the Houston Texans 24-22 Sunday in Week 7, closing as a 3-point home favorite. They have rattled off 3 straight wins and are 2-0 in true road games.

Packers at Jaguars picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 34, Jaguars 24

Moneyline

PASS.

The Packers have been on a roll and should come out on top against the Jaguars team that is both hurt and struggling to find any consistency. Green Bay is far too expensive to play here though.

Against the spread

BET PACKERS -4 (-110).

The Packers offense has been rolling as of late, and there’s no reason to believe the Jaguars will be able to slow them down. Green Bay has allowed 35 to the Bears and 34 to the Colts in Week 6 and Week 5 respectively.

The Packers have tallied at least 29 points in 3 of their last 5 games and have allowed 22 or fewer in 4 of those. They have 2-1 ATS as a favorite of 3 or more and 1-0 ATS as a favorite of more than 3. The Jags are 0-2 ATS in home games this season with their most recent “home” battle against the Patriots not included.

Considering those trends, back PACKERS -4 (-110).

Over/Under

BET OVER 49.5 (-110).

The Jags have gone Over the projected total in 3 straight games and have found something clicking with their offense and not their defense. Either the Jags or their opponent have scored 32 or more in 3 straight games.

The Packers are 3-3-1 O/U and have had an electric offense. While their defense has performed well, the Jags are coming in with a red-hot offense that should be able to score to some extent. With both teams offenses rolling, back OVER 49.5 (-110).

Texans at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 31, Texans 27

Moneyline

PASS.

The Packers are playable on the moneyline, but their value is better served on the spread. The Texans are worthy of at least a glance, but they are too banged up to really consider to win on the road in Week 7.

Against the spread

BET PACKERS -3 (-105).

Simply put, the Texans are too injured to assume they’ll be able to keep pace here. They’ll be short at least four starting defenders and a couple of their top offensive weapons as well. The Packers are a less banged-up side and should be able to knife through an injured Houston secondary.

Green Bay has won and covered consistently as a favorite this season. It has won 2 in a row and covered both, closing as a favorite in each. The Texans have yet to be an underdog, but they are 0-1 straight up and ATS on the road against teams above .500.

Expect them to struggle short so many talented players. Take PACKERS -3 (-105).

Over/Under

BET OVER 48.5 (-110).

Both teams like to score, and neither defense has been on top of its game as of late. The Texans gave up 21 to QB Drake Maye and the Patriots in his first career start in Week 6. They have allowed at least 20 in 5 of 6 games and in 4 straight.

Houston has scored 23 or more in 3 straight as well. The Packers have gone 2-1-1 O/U in their last 4 and are 3-2-1 O/U on the season. They have scored at least 29 in 3 of their last 4. Considering those trends, back OVER 48.5 (-110).
