why get oft the tenn money train?
perfect straight up and against the spread. ailing qb and def in gb. i know tenny is on a short week and pack are off the bye but tenn is playing old school great football. is it that everyone is betting against perfection? i know they'll lose eventually but at home to the pack i dont see it. anything i'm missing? gb bad run def tenn loves to run. tenn creating TO's.

better team at home seems like the play to me

the whole board was all about indy on monday so i guess you guys dont like tenn. gb is only beating bad teams as far as i can tell and beat indy on a ton of TO's. i dont think tenn will TO nearly as much.

Have you forgotten who the Titan's have played? Let me show you...

Jax- Who were severly beat up at the time.
Cincy- Nuff said...
Tex- Slow start...
Minny- Ugh!!
Balt- Tough D, but have just recently been able to put up a few points.
KC- Nuff said....
Indy- Not the Indy were used to seeing...frustrated, banged up ....

Dont get me wrong. Tenn is very solid. VERY!!! However, GB has a very good chance to pull off the upset. At least the cover. Harris, Bigby are almost back to good health and will likely play which imo could make a big difference. Extra week for planning and A-Rod to get a bit healthier cant hurt. Plus short week for Tenn after a big Div win. I sense a flat spot here and thats why I dropped a big chunk on em.

GL with whoever you pick

You will never be king, if you cant handle the swing.

I was introduced to variance once. That's exactly the time I stopped betting over my head.

Hmm...an "ailing" shoulder will make the difference?

Rodgers vs ATL: 37 attempts (313 YDS, 3 TD, 1 INT - 6 Rushes, 23 YDS, 1 TD)
Rodgers @ SEA: 30 attempts (208 YDS, 2 TD, 0 INT)
Rodgers vs IND: 28 attempts (186 YDS, 1 TD, 0 INT)

As long as he can throw more than 25 times a game, I'm quite happy putting my money on Rodgers and the Pack. I'm not disputing that Tennessee's D isn't that good. What I am disputing is that their QB is "ailing", when he's put up over 600+ YDS, 6 TD and only 1 INT in the 3 weeks he's been "ailing". Not to mention the pack are 2-1.

The only thing that does worry me is that his numbers have dropped each week. I'm happy with 0 picks in 2 weeks, and a BYE week never hurts anyone who needs healing, but I'm just calling into question how "hurt" that shoulder really is. I think GB may be using it to try and get coaches to gameplan a little different for them. Ever since he got hurt, Grant's touches have gone up.

18 vs ATL (83 YDS)
33 @ SEA (90 YDS)
31 vs IND (105 YDS, 1 TD)

The perfect record is in jeopardy this week.

In general, the board loves underdogs and doesn't like teams with gaudy ATS records.

I'll be on the Pack.
