You have to be almost crazy to pick a side in the game in this one. Yes, Jauron is quality coming into a game off the bye week. But they have no offensive line, no true stud RB even though A-Train is a decent North - South banger. The only quality on the team is Dez White and David Terrell. Only if they had the personnel to get them the ball.
Green Bay on the other hand is an after thought as a SuperBowl contender, with injuries to their reciving core, below average "O" line play, and Favre just not connecting on the big play as of yet.
One team is going to break out, one will hang tough because of the division rivalry. I have no clue as to who will break out, but if forced on a side I would lean to the home team, opening a new renovated stadium on MNF. Plus it's off the key number and 4.5 is generous.... so the Bears would be a forced play. (But I will not even make it a personal play as it is still to ugly!!)
But considering that both teams will attempt to open up their virtually non-existent offenses, and both are going against defenses that will allow it to happen, I will chose the points in this...As mentioned earlier one team will break out tonight, and one will stay close...look for 45-48 pts in this one.
I will take the OVER 41½ for 4*
