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

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

The Green Bay Packers (0-1) will welcome the New Orleans Saints (0-1) to Lambeau Field Friday. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Saints vs. Packers odds, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Packers come into thr game after a 28-21 loss to San Francisco in Week 1. Jordan Love played the majority of the game, throwing 24 passes and completing 13 for 176 yards, 2 touchdowns and 3 interceptions.

Reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers recently criticized his young receiving corps, which is drastically different from last season following the trade of superstar WR Devante Adams. Whether Rogers plays Friday is unknown.

As for the Saints, they were without their starting QB Jameis Winston down the stretch last season and eventually missed the playoffs. Winston didn’t play in the preseason opener.

Fourth-round draft pick Ian Book was the main option, going 15-for-22 for 121 yards and an interception. Veteran backup QB Andy Dalton went 5-for-5 for 51 yards and a touchdown in the team’s 17-13 loss to Houston.

Saints at Packers picks and predictions

Prediction

Saints 24, Packers 20

Money line

LEAN SAINTS (+130).

If Rodgers does play, I don’t expect him to get multiple series. This should be the Jordan Love preseason show, and he wasn’t impressive in their opening game.

Meanwhile, Green Bay’s defense allowed every 49ers quarterback to score a touchdown. The Saints are going to have a more aggressive trio of quarterbacks with Dalton as the top backup.

New Orleans also had a much better defensive showing, holding Houston to 17 as opposed to Green Bay, which allowed 28.

Neither team had their starting running back play either with the Packers resting both RB Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. With New Orleans backup skill players better, I’ll take them at plus-money value.

Against the spread

PASS.

If you feel more comfortable with the points then fine, but the value is on the money line here.

Over/Under

BET OVER 39.5 (-105).

Week 1 for New Orleans was the Ian Book show. I expect Dalton and Winston to get some action in this game as we inch closer to the regular season. Both should have a good command over the offense.

As for Green Bay, Love was a wild card and had 2 TDs. His 3 interceptions also set up the 49ers well in a few possessions, and he’ll be playing a talented secondary again.

Put it all together, and I like the Over 39.5 (-105) here.

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

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

The Green Bay Packers and San Francisco 49ers meet in their preseason opener Friday. Kickoff from Levi’s Stadium for 8:30 p.m. ET (NFL Network). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Packers vs. 49ers odds, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Packers will have their starting offensive line in action Friday, although MVP QB Aaron Rodgers will not play. Backup QB Jordan Love is expected to draw the start and will likely play plenty.

The 49ers might potentially start QB Nate Sudfeld, with former Iowa State product QB Brock Purdy as the backup. If new starter QB Trey Lance does play, it likely will be a cameo, and the team is unlikely to use QB Jimmy Garoppolo and risk a potential injury that would crush his possible trade value. WR/RB Deebo Samuel is also unlikely to suit up.

Money line (ML): Packers +115 (bet $100 to win $115) | 49ers -140 (bet $140 to win $100)
Against the spread (ATS): Packers +2.5 (+100) | 49ers -2.5 (-120)
Over/Under (O/U): 33.5 (O: -103 | U: -117)

Packers at 49ers picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 19, 49ers 13

Money line

The PACKERS (+115) are a value play on the road in their opener, as Love is a talented player who should be able to run the offense well in his time on the field. The 49ers are likely to have plenty of star players on the offensive side of the football resting, while the Pack will have most starters going.

Against the spread

The PACKERS +2.5 (+100) are an okay play at even-money, although my preference would be playing them straight up for the better payout. I don’t expect to see Lance play for the 49ers, and Jimmy G is unlikely to play, too. If it’s Sudfeld and Purdy handling the offense, it won’t end well for the home side.

Over/Under

The UNDER 33.5 (-117) is the play. The Packers defense is nasty, and they’re likely to be facing a third- and fourth-string quarterback. The 49ers will struggle to put points on the board. The first preseason game is traditionally low-scoring, and these teams will give the Under bettors what they want.

Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions odds, picks and prediction

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

The Green Bay Packers (13-3) and Detroit Lions (2-13-1) wrap up their regular seasons with a Week 18 meeting Sunday at Ford Field in the Motor City. The kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Packers vs. Lions odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

Green Bay clinched a first-round bye and a home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs after crushing a QB Kirk Cousins-less Minnesota Vikings 37-10 on Sunday Night Football last weekend.

It’s unclear how long the Packers will play MVP frontrunner Aaron Rodgers, RB Aaron Jones and superstar WR Davante Adams. Green Bay is 12-4 ATS and 7-9 O/U.

Detroit was eliminated from playoff contention long ago and got rolled 51-29 in Week 17 by the Seattle Seahawks.

Lions QB Jared Goff has missed the last two games and his status for Week 18 is up in the air. The Lions are 10-6 ATS and 6-10 O/U.

The Packers stormed past the Lions 35-17 at Lambeau Field as 11.5-point favorites in Week 2 with 21 unanswered second-half points.

Packers at Lions odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Lions 24, Packers 17

Money line

PASS with a slight “lean” to the Lions (+140) since I like Detroit plus the points and will typically sprinkle on an underdog’s money line when betting them to cover.

However, this just isn’t a good enough payout to take the Lions outright since we still don’t know Goff’s status.

Green Bay is reportedly planning to send its starters out for at least a few series. I don’t trust Detroit backup QB Tim Boyle enough to lead the Lions past the Packers, even against Green Bay’s second-string defense.

Against the spread

BET the LIONS +3.5 (-125) for 1 unit because they are one of the best ATS teams in the NFL despite being mathematically eliminated from the playoffs for a long time.

Detroit first-year head coach Dan Campbell has done an awesome job having his team prepped every week and the Lions have played hard in most games this season.

Also, the Packers are 0-4 ATS in their last four games in Detroit and 2-7 ATS in their last nine games versus the Lions.

Detroit was ahead of Green Bay at the end of the first half in their Week 2 meeting before squandering the game after halftime.

The Lions outgained the Packers 344-323 but lost the turnover battle 2-0, committed nine penalties for 78 yards and were stopped on both fourth-down attempts.

I expect Detroit to have a better 60-minute performance against a Green Bay team that’ll probably rest its good players after a few series.

The LIONS +3.5 (-125) is my favorite wager in this game.

Over/Under

“LEAN” to the UNDER 44.5 (-110) for a half-unit because Detroit plays at the second-slowest pace in the NFL (seconds per snap) and Green Bay plays the third-slowest pace, according to Football Outsiders.

Lastly, there’s been some reverse line movement headed south of the total. Nearly 70% of the action is on the Over but this total has been lowered from the 45.5-point opener according to pregame.com. It’s a red flag whenever we see sportsbooks make the more popular side cheaper.

Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Minnesota Vikings (7-8) have their playoff hopes hanging in the balance when they travel to meet the Green Bay Packers (12-3) for Sunday Night Football. Kickoff from Lambeau field is set for 8:20 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Vikings vs. Packers odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Vikings have not been above .500 all season, but have numerous tie-breaker advantages in their favor. However, the line jumped by six points when it was learned that QB Kirk Cousins had tested positive for COVID-19 Friday and won’t be available for Sunday’s game.

Minnesota is in a huge hole since it doesn’t have a quality backup and will turn to QB Sean Mannion with its season on the line.

The Vikings are one of only three teams to beat Green Bay this season despite the Packers going 12-2 since a humbling loss to New Orleans in Week 1.

Green Bay controls its own destiny to earn the No. 1 seed in the NFC and make any Super Bowl run go through Lambeau Field in late January — a huge advantage for the Packers since the only teams that can catch them are all warm-weather squads.

Vikings at Packers odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Packers 34, Vikings 10

Money line

Since the announcement that Cousins won’t be playing the money line has exploded. Nobody should ever make a bet when your investment is seven times the return and throwing money at Minnesota is simply wasting it.

AVOID.

Against the spread

The team with the best record in the league is going up against a team that prepared all week that it would have Cousins and now have to turn to Mannion, who was on the practice squad until Friday morning.

The spread is big at 12.5 points, but I’m convinced the Packers can double that number. TAKE the PACKERS -12.5 (-117).

Over/Under

The hardest part about this line is whether Minnesota can score enough points to hold up its end of the bargain. RB Dalvin Cook and WR Justin Jefferson will likely do enough to get the Vikings in scoring position a couple of times, but Green Bay is more than capable of scoring the 34 points we’re projecting. BET the OVER 42.5 points (-112)

Cleveland Browns at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Cleveland Browns at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Cleveland Browns (7-7) travel to meet the Green Bay Packers (11-3) for a Week 16 game Saturday at Lambeau Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Browns vs. Packers odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Browns head to Lambeau on a short week after having last Saturday’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders pushed to Monday due to COVID concerns in Cleveland. The team is starting to get some players back, and head coach Kevin Stefanski has also returned, but some key players are still working their way back.

The Packers locked up the NFC North Division title with a win against the Baltimore Ravens last Sunday. The Packers are 11-3 SU/ATS overall on the season, and the OVER has cashed in each of their last four outings.

Browns at Packers odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Packers 31, Browns 20

Money line

The Packers (-370) have wrapped up the division, but they’re still up just one game on a handful of teams in the NFC. Green Bay is trying to secure home-field advantage so the road to the Super Bowl goes through frigid Wisconsin and they won’t be taking it easy on the visiting Browns.

However, you have to PASS though, as risking nearly four times your potential return is risky business.

Against the spread

The PACKERS -7.5 (-105) are a good play at home. Green Bay has posted three straight victories while going 2-1 ATS during the span. The Packers are averaging 37.3 PPG across their last three games and a struggling Cleveland team will have a hard time keeping up at that rate.

Over/Under

The OVER 45.5 (-115) is the play in this Saturday game. The Browns haven’t had a lot of success on offense lately and compounded with all of the COVID issues lately that’s a bit of a concern.

However, the greatest threat to the Browns might be the health of Garrett, who has missed practice this week with a groin injury. QB Aaron Rodgers will pick them apart and Green Bay will score at will if Garrett is forced to sit and no one can get pressure on him.

Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Chicago Bears (4-8) face the Green Bay Packers (9-3) on the road for an old NFC North rivalry on Sunday Night Football in Week 14. Kickoff is 8:20 p.m. ET at Lambeau Field. Below, we look at the Bears vs. Packers odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Packers are coming off their bye week. They split their four games before the bye, beating the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks and losing to the Minnesota Vikings and Kansas City Chiefs. QB Aaron Rodgers has thrown 23 touchdown passes this season and only 4 interceptions.

The Bears are struggling and have recorded six losses in their last seven games; the one win was a last-second victory over the Detroit Lions. They are coming off a 33-22 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13 and lost 24-14 to the Packers in Week 6.

Bears at Packers odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Packers 24, Bears 17

Money line

PASS on the money line as there is no value in betting more than seven times your return. A Bears win would make a big payout, but their only win since Oct. 10 was beating the Lions and Rodgers is 21-5 in 26 career starts against them.

Against the spread

The Bears are 4-8 ATS on the season and the Packers lead the NFL at 10-2 ATS. The Packers won by 10 points in the Week 6 meeting in Chicago but were only favored by 5.5 points in that game.

Division games are always tough and it’s hard to beat a team twice in a season. The Packers will almost certainly win this game, but I believe it will be a one-score game, even if Green Bay controls the clock.

Take the BEARS +11.5 (-112).

Over/Under

Both Green Bay and Chicago are 4-8 O/U on the season and combined for only 38 points in their first meeting.

The Packers’ last two games went Over the projected total, but seven straight games went Under before that.

Take UNDER 42.5 (-108).

Los Angeles Rams at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s Los Angeles Rams at Green Bay Packers odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Los Angeles Rams (7-3) will be on the road off their bye for a meeting with the Green Bay Packers (8-3) Sunday in Week 12. Kickoff from Lambeau Field will be at 4:25 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Rams vs. Packers odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Rams have lost their last two games following a four-game win streak. L.A. still ranks seventh in scoring and sixth in total yards on offense despite putting up just 26 total points across the two-game skid. In the last two weeks, the Rams have allowed 31 and 28 points, struggling mightily to slow down the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10.

The Packers have lost two of their last three games as they suffered losses to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9 and Minnesota Vikings in Week 11. They did beat the Seahawks in between those losses, but Green Bay has dropped to 8-3 on the year after starting 7-1. QB Aaron Rodgers is currently dealing with a toe injury and LT David Bakhtiari and OL Elgton Jenkins will both miss this game.

Rams at Packers odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Rams 24, Packers 21

Money line

The Rams actually opened as underdogs in this one after losing their last two games, but they’re now favored because of how banged up the Packers are. These teams are trending in opposite directions health-wise and there are some serious injury concerns on Green Bay’s side.

I like the RAMS (-130) to take advantage of the shorthanded Packers and win outright on the road.

Against the spread

The Packers’ 9-2 ATS record is the best in the league. The Rams have dropped their last 4 against the spread and are 4-6 ATS on the year. Even though they opened as underdogs, with the line since flipping to Rams -1.5, they’re the healthier team right now, which makes a big difference.

Bet the RAMS -2.5 (-110) to cover and win by at least a couple of points.

Over/Under

Surprisingly, the total has only gone Over in three of the Packers’ 11 games. The Over is 5-4-1 in Rams games, but it’s just 1-3 in their last four. With the Packers being injured and the Rams offense stalling in recent weeks, I don’t see this being a very high-scoring game — especially in colder conditions.

Bet the UNDER 46.5 (-105).

Green Bay Packers at Minnesota Vikings odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s Green Bay Packers at Minnesota Vikings odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Green Bay Packers (8-2) look to bury their closest divisional competition when they visit the Minnesota Vikings (4-5) at 1 p.m. ET Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium. Below, we look at the Packers vs. Vikings odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

The Packers are currently the No. 1 seed in the NFC. Their only loss of the season following a Week 1 defeat came when QB Aaron Rodgers was on the COVID-19 reserve list during a Week 9 loss at the Kansas City Chiefs. However, the Packers have some key injuries that are concerning and even Rodgers has only practiced once this week on a limited basis with a toe injury.

The Vikings, on the other hand, have several of their star defensive players – LB Anthony Barr, CB Patrick Peterson and SS Harrison Smith – coming back from being sidelined and are going to be at as full strength. The timing couldn’t be better.

Packers at Vikings odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Vikings 27, Packers 24

Money line

Since 2015, the Packers are just 5-6-1 against the Vikings, including 2-3 on the road. There are a lot of people jumping on the Packers here, but it seems like every time Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer and GM Rick Spielman are on the hot seat, Minnesota comes away with a signature win. The injuries to Jones and Bakhtiari are important because both are so critical to Green Bay’s offense. You may be the lone wolf in your pack, but BET VIKINGS (-105).

Against the spread

PASS since we’re backing the Vikings’ money line at -105.

Over/Under

The Vikings offense has been hitting its stride, scoring 27 or more points in three of their last four games. Any time you have Rodgers on the other side of the ball, his ability to make plays to get his team instantly into scoring position lends itself to scoring points.

There will be no outside weather influences in this game, so both offenses are likely to be in attack mode. I wouldn’t have been shocked to see this line two or three points higher. TAKE THE OVER 47.5 (-105)

Seattle Seahawks at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and prediction

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

The Seattle Seahawks (3-5) are on the road in Week 10 to take on the Green Bay Packers (7-2) Sunday. Kickoff is 4:25 p.m. at Lambeau Field. Below, we look at the Seahawks vs. Packers odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

Seattle gets QB Russell Wilson back after a three-game stint on injured reserve following surgery on his finger. The Seahawks lost two of three games in his absence and are tied for last place in the NFC West.

The Packers, a week after beating the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8, lost QB Aaron Rodgers for their Week 9 game after he tested positive for COVID-19. He will be back in the lineup Sunday, giving the nation a premier battle between him and Wilson. The Packers lost 13-7 to the Kansas City Chiefs with Rodgers sidelined.

Seahawks at Packers odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Packers 24, Seahawks 21

Money line

The Seahawks get Russell Wilson back but they still are only 2-2 on the road this season, and he won’t fix the fact that the defense allows the second-most yards per game in the league (401.5).

The Packers are 3-0 at home this season, and with Rodgers’ return, he will certainly feel a little extra motivation.

Take the PACKERS (-170).

Against the spread

The Seahawks are 5-3 ATS this season and 3-1 ATS on the road. However, Green Bay is 8-1 ATS and 3-0 ATS at home.

The Seahawks defense is far worse at allowing yards than points. They rank 31st in yards but are a top-10 unit in terms of scoring defense, allowing 21.1 points per game.

With a showdown between Rodgers and Wilson, it is bound to come down to the wire. I don’t see this being decided by more than a field goal.

Take the SEAHAWKS +3.5 (-120).

Over/Under

The Seahawks have only had one game this season finish with a total of at least 50 points, and it was the only game that has hit the Over for them all season.

The Packers have not had a game finish with at least 50 points since Week 3. They have had only two games go Over the projected total.

Take UNDER 49.5 (-110).

Green Bay Packers at Kansas City Chiefs odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Sunday’s Green Bay Packers at Kansas City Chiefs odds and lines, with expert NFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Green Bay Packers (7-1) visit the Kansas City Chiefs (4-4) Sunday for their Week 9 meeting at Arrowhead Stadium. The kickoff is scheduled for 4:25 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Packers vs. Chiefs odds and lines, and make our best NFL picks, predictions and bets.

Obviously, the major storyline entering this Packers-Chiefs showdown is the absence of reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers who will be sidelined Sunday after testing positive for COVID-19 this week.

Green Bay is coming off an impressive 24-21 upset of a then-undefeated Arizona Cardinals on Thursday Night Football last week.

The Packers won outright as 6.5-point road underdogs despite missing superstar Davante Adams and No. 2 WR Allen Lazard who tested positive for COVID-19. Green Bay sits at 7-1 ATS and 2-6 O/U.

K.C. narrowly beat the lowly New York Giants 20-17 as 10.5-point home favorites on Monday Night Football in Week 8. The Chiefs continue to be their own worst enemy as K.C. turned the ball over twice vs. New York and committed 12 penalties. The Chiefs are 2-6 ATS and 4-4 O/U.

Packers at Chiefs odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Chiefs 26, Packers 20

Money line

I was ready to take K.C.’s money line which was priced at nearly even money before the Rodgers-COVID news broke. However, the Chiefs (-350) are unplayable at this number.

The Packers rallying behind a backup quarterback against a Chiefs team that’s been bad this season wouldn’t be a shocker. But, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t entertaining K.C. as a teaser leg.

PASS.

Against the spread

“LEAN” to the PACKERS +7.5 (-120) as more of a fade against a Chiefs -7.5 (+100) that shouldn’t be laying more than 7 points vs. a quality team.

Of course, the loss of Rodgers is awful for Green Bay, hence the lopsided pricing. But, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur is probably the most underrated playcaller in the NFL.

Since LaFleur was hired by Green Bay in 2019, the Packers are 33-7 overall and this is a great spot for them.

For instance, Green Bay is 7-3 ATS as a road underdog and 7-4 ATS when playing with a rest advantage since 2019. Also, K.C. is just 9-11-1 ATS as a home favorite over that span and 15-17-1 ATS following a win.

The football-based logic for my “LEAN” to the PACKERS +7.5 (-120) is Green Bay’s epic run blocking edge in the trenches. Packers RB Aaron Jones is one of the best in the business and Green Bay could certainly control the pace behind a dominant rushing effort.

Over/Under

Slight “LEAN” to the UNDER 47.5 (-108) for a tiny wager if at all because we are getting to the party late. Once the Rodgers’ news broke, the market hammered the Under, which steamed the total from the mid-50s to the current number.

There’s still a smidge of value in the Under for Packers-Chiefs because K.C.’s offense has been mistake-prone all season. Green Bay should be draining the clock to avoid a shootout without the NFL’s best gunslinger (Rodgers).
