Game of the Year
Green Bay Packers vs San Diego Chargers 4pm
10-Units Chargers +5.5 @EasyStreetSports
The Packers are a great team, but they are not one of the best teams ever. I know they one they Super Bowl last year but don't forget the Packers were the 6 seed coming out of the NFC. This isn't a team that has established themselves as one of the greatest, they certainly do not deserve to be a 6 point favorite versus the Chargers on the Road! The Packers have actually been outgained in 4 of their 7 games this year! You absolutely can move the ball against this team. The Packers give up the 4th most "explosive" passing plays in the league, meaning plays that go for more than 20 yards. They are one of the worst. The Packers are vulnerable to down the field attacks. Here is the difference in this game: Packers cornerbacks Woodson 6'1, Williams 5'11, Shields 5'11. I could continue through the 3rd string and you will only find 1 corner on this entire team bigger than 6'. Vincent Jackson 6'5, Antonio Gates 6'4. And that doesn't include Malcolm Floyd 6'5 who is doubtful for this team. I like Woodson as a corner a lot, but it's not going to be easier for him against Jackson today. Philip Rivers is going to attack and challenge this Green Bay defense. I know the Chargers haven't looked great yet, but the Chargers were on a awful 3 consecutive road games. Any team will struggle with that. Saints went 1-2 ATS on their 3 game road trip, Jets went 0-3, and Colts went 0-3 also. It was a poor schedule for the Chargers, but teams are perfect in their first home game coming off that 3 game road trip. Chargers haven't been a home underdog since 2003, and quite frankly, they shouldn't be today.
