    GB vs New Orleans!!! WTF???
    How is this line moving like everyone is pounding New Orleans??? Am I missing something with this game?? New Orleans just isn't good this year... They need OT at home to beat Tampa Bay... GB is +2.5 now... I grabbed it at +1.5 cause I thought it would shoot the other way...

    Saints are gonna cruise here. This is my biggest bet of the week.

      How do you figure that? What have you seen from the saints that makes you think they can hang with GB defense?

        Green Bay is very beatable on the road. New Orleans is a brutal stadium to play in. Saints have way more to play for. Everyone is high on the Packers right now and low on the Saints.

        Bringing up the Tampa game is silly. Past performances are not nearly as relevant as you think. But if you really wanna play that card, I'll bite. What happened the last time the Packers played in a dome on the road? Or hell, what happened last time they played on the road? Getting raped by the Lions and barely sneaking by the Dolphins are the answers to those questions. Not saying they're relevant, just saying that every team has a game or two that can be used as argument ammo.

        Last season the Seahawks were down 28 or something to Tampa at home before barely winning. They must have been a terrible home team, huh?

          Saints may win the game, very doubtful they "cruise." I wouldn't get to carried away comparing a game in Detroit vs. a tremendously physical defense to the defense the Saints will put on the field. Rodgers is a beast in domes. Should be a damn close game and I would play the over before a side.

            I'm not comparing them. I'm making a mockery of the idea that game comparisons mean much.

              When Tampa scores 31 on your defense in your dome, it means something.

                Uh huh. Tampa scored 24 in Seattle last season, that didn't mean a thing. What's the cutoff on meaning something? 27? 30?

                What it probably means is that New Orleans needed a reality check. They manned up and won that game. They'll win tomorrow.

                It it also means that teams occasionally don't take Tampa Bay seriously.

                  You could be right and I could be totally wrong... Could be a close game but to say that the Saints are one of your biggest bets and that they're gonna cruise past one of the hottest teams in the NFL is crazy to me... One of the best teams in the NFL is getting points, I'll take that all day even if They were playing in Drew Bree's moms backyard

                    Coin flip game to me.

                    If I had to play one though, I would lean GB. Homefield is not enough of a reason for me to ride with the struggling team over the hot hand.

                        Teasing GB might be worth a look, they're sitting on a good number for that.

                        I don't see much difference when Rodgers plays in a dome or not, especially considering that most of his stats were padded @DET & @MIN, not exactly the toughest domes in the NFL. Last time @NO Rodgers threw 3 picks and GB got blown out, granted, that was 6 years ago... Just saying...

                          people believe NO at home is an auto lock but NO can absolutely lose at home...seattle did...why not NO? they barely covered vs Minny and needed a miracle to beat TB...that being said, its a good spot for them to bounce back but ill still be taking the team playing better football at the moment, a bit healthier and getting the points...good luck whatever side youre on especially if its the same as me, HA!

                                  Was also my biggest bet of the weekend I couldn't believe that 85% were on GB, on the road they are just not the same team... The Swiss cheesehead D doesn't help either. First half made me nervous too, but NO did exactly what I thought they would do, win the game.. Nice hit sir..
