    Green Bay at 12-1 to win SB

    This seems like great value to me. And if GB loses a close game in AZ this Sunday, there'll be even more upside to this bet. To me, the NFC's between Carolina, Arizona, Seattle and GB with them all standing comparable chances. Why not GB?

    I should say that I got NE at 10-1 before the season started, so there's a quasi-hedge at play (with Pittsburgh lurking).

    GB, in my opinion, has no shot. There defense has been injury riddled and there offense is very spotty. They're receivers just can't get open. They struggle against good defenses. Even on bad defenses, they still struggle to get open. There running game is a spotty joke. Eddie lacy will get 100 yards one night and then 4 yards the next 5 games. James Starks becomes the starter and does just as bad. I don't see any value in it because I think it's 99% that it won't cash. That's just my opinion though. Bol!

    If I were a bookie, I'd feel very very comfortable offering this at 25:1, just to get everyone's action. This isn't happening. I'd even go as far as to say 12:1 isn't good enough for me to wager on them just making the super bowl.

    Fair enough. Just seems strange to me. We see it almost every year: team everybody discounts that makes the SB.

    To wager on GB getting to the SB, I'd have to see some consistency. Some type of hot-streak going into the playoffs. They just aren't having any of that. Maybe when the playoffs start, but right now, they are just scraping by. McCarthy is making the play calls now, so maybe that'll change some things.
