If the Packers don't win this, they'll miss the playoffs.

I don't know that they would miss the playoffs. But that would be one gianormous hole to dig out of. And it isn't like they are playing with any level of confidence.

So yeah. They had better beat the Bears.

Wow, I think I am taking the under dog tonight. No Starks, no Lacy, no Jarrod Cook, no Sam Shields, Adams in concussion protocol and Rodgers still playing like ****. I can see Jefferies and Meredith having a big night. For fantasy lovers though, Knile Davis might be a fantasy stud soon for the Packers.

and yet the Packers are still 9 to 7.5 favorites.

all you say is true and yet they are 3-2 and beat a superior Giants team and their receivers with back up corners.
its all a mess in the league. This is the Packs 3rd home game in a row and Hoyer is still not that great.
I'll take pack.

now..did you mean straight up or against spread?
thursday games tend to be blow outs or at the least above the spread.
in the realgm I'll take Bears to cover but Pack to still win.

...and so that will mean a sack fumble is coming for Hoyer and the Pack will win by 14 lol

I'm not totally comfortable with the game so I am only doing a $75.00 tease taking the Bears +16 and the over of 41.5.

I just want Merendith to have a great game that's all.

That Hoyer injury looks bad.

Post #10 » by **jwise44** » Fri Oct 21, 2016 1:21 am

Maybe it's cause I'm kind of tired after a long day, but this game is almost unbearably boring

Seriously thinking about seeing what's on demand or asking my roommates if they want to have a ping pong tournament

Hard to believe that Rodgers and the Packers offense can only muster up 3 pts at home against the Bears in a half.

Post #12 » by **HMFFL** » Fri Oct 21, 2016 4:30 am

The injury Hoyer suffered did look bad.

Green Bay showed up strong during the 1st but failed at scoring a couple of times due to dropped passes and foot placement in the end zone. They came out during the second half and scored to pull from Chicago. I had my money on Green Bay tonight.

ErnieDiGregorio · Post #13 » by **ErnieDiGregorio** » Fri Oct 21, 2016 5:58 am

Packers won yay!

Bears didnt cover,booooo !

Packers should give Jerry Jones a call. McFadden is healthy.

Well, at least somebody won tonight. I sure as hell didn't. Oh well, that's gambling. Had the under in a tease but lost the extra points I was getting thanks to Hoyer getting his arm broken. Only contribution the Bear's got from Barkley was 3 int's. Couldn't even get a **** T.D. after the game was over so I could cover. Barkley sucked so bad in his first series I knew the game was over by then and switched over to watch the Bruins game. That's what I get once in a while betting on a **** team. I guess unlike Ernie, I have to admit I called that one wrong. Plus I was extremely surprised D. Adams played. I was under the impression he was in concussion protocol.

Packer's are not much in the trading dept. I believe Knile Davis is the first player since 2010 that they actually traded for, but I could be wrong.

Probably right. But they aren't going anywhere until they get some semblance of a running game. Rodgers passing 60 times a game is a recipe for missing the playoffs. At the very least, you and I both know DMF still has a little left in the tank. And he's not getting any playing time here. A 2018 7th pick that could go to a 6 based on performance would seem reasonable to me.

Many people unsure about that game all week before the kickoff.
I had 3 solo betting tickets on Green Bay ML and a parlay that involved Green Bay and Minnesota.

So was I. that's why I went conservative and did a teaser. By I was also under the impression Adams was still in concussion protocol and I wasn't expecting Hoyer to go down with a broken arm. that was the killer for me on that night. Oh well, that's gambling sometimes.

Very true.
You can never predict injuries.
How often do you bet?
