5. Tennessee at Green Bay

LINE: Green Bay -3
ATS PICK: Under on the 54
Bet on this, BetMGM latest line

We start this week with a bit of a curveball.

Yes, like Green Bay -3 at home with the No. 1 seed in the playoffs all ready to be wrapped up, but this game will be about the total.

More to the point, this game is about the snow, the cold, and the frozen field – no, I won’t use frozen tundra, because by its very definition tundra is already frozen, at least at one sub-level, and I’m sticking with my belief to not use the repetitive term even though I’ve been honked at by geography and geology types that tundra doesn’t have to be frozen, and …

Sorry.

It’s going to (bleep)ing snow.

The forecast is for about a 90% chance of snow and around 15 mph winds by the time this thing kicks off. It’s going to be freezing, neither team will be happy, and this isn’t going to be a high-scoring shootout.

Now, the one concern when it comes to games like this will be field goals – neither side will want to kick them. Even so, even in normal conditions there might be a shot that these two could make it a wee bit more of a defensive slugfest than it might seem.

But get in fast if you’re getting in at all – this total is going to go down fast.

NEXT: Cincinnati at Houston
