NFL Underdog Pick Week 8
October 27th 2018 -
Special K
Green Bay Packers (+9.5) vs LA Rams
How often do you see Aaron Rodgers and the Packers as 9.5 points to anyone?
Well, this is the first time ARod has been this large of an underdog in his
career. There were two other games under Rodgers that the Packers have been
underdogs of 7 points or more. On the road at Seattle in the 2014 NFC
Championship (7.5 point underdog) and on the road at Arizona in the 2015
divisional playoffs (7 point underdog). The Packers lost both those games in
overtime.
Rodgers will be shedding his knee brace in this one so he can escape from Aaron
Donald. The Packers are also getting some weapons back on offense in Cobb and
Allison and will need it as this game is expected to be a shootout. Listen, even
if the Packers get down big early, it will be difficult for the Rams to maintain
a double digit lead against ARod. This football game has backdoor cover written
all over it.
Since 2007, the Packers are 10-4 SU following a bye.
