    Green Bay-Atlanta Total

    Can anyone tell me why I should not take the Over in the Green Bay-Atlanta game? It currently sits at 53. Green Bay has by far, the best offense in the NFC, averaging 37 points per game. Their defense is another story, giving up over 24 points per game. Atlanta has put up 30 or more points in two of their 4 games, and is giving up an average of over 26 points per game. I see a 45-31 type game here. Thoughts?

    They played to a total of 37 in the regular season last year. But I'm on the over as well. Both offenses are too good in the air for this one to go under.

    Over would be the logical play in this game. I'd be surprised if it stayed Under the number.

    Only reason the over is not the obvious choice is that both teams will try and run the ball and play a ball control style of offense just to keep the ball out of each others hands. I think this would certainly apply to ATL more than GB. When this happens the clock runs alot and game goes by quick.
    But if I bet the total I would still be on the over.

    I think it will be an under. Green Bay will put up points of course but I don't think ATL will be able to do the same. Look at Atlantas only games over 50 points this year, they played a philly team who looked like they were playing high school football, and a seahawks team who are god awful. Rest of their games were all under 50 against and a game against a weak bucs team where they only put up 13 points, GB has a good D and I think theyll be able to hold it under in this game.

    Looking at Sbr's match up in the head to head section, the over is 6-2. You have a 75% chance of the game going over. GL.

    Over rests on GB putting up lots of points. Cant see ATL scoring too many - might as well bet on dem packers
