    SNF: Packers or Lions?

    I'm leaning towards Packers. Rodgers hot right now. Any thoughts?

    If Giants win - it won't matter, since pack and lions would both be in the playoffs. Which I would think makes the game hard to bet.

    Redskins losing means even the loser of this game is in playoffs. A first round home game is what's at stake. I like taking dogs in these type games. Home dogs that are playoff teams are even better.

    I'm a "don't bet against a hot hand" kind of guy so I'm leaning GB, but going against home team here feels wrong. Very tough game.

    well, lets look at the tape:

    Packers -3.5, r facing a
    9-6 team tonite, on the road
    so heres the packer ROAD performances:

    week 1 - only a 4 pt win @ awful 3-13 jax
    week 2 - LOSE by 3 @ 8-8 minnesota
    week 8 - LOSE by 1 @ 11-5 atlanta
    week10 - LOSE by 22 @ 9-7 tennessee
    week11 - LOSE by 18 @ 8-7-1 wash
    week12 - win by 14 @ 7-9 philly
    week15 - only a 3 pt win @ awful 3-13 chic

    have to ask ourselves: how many of the above listed
    ROAD performances - against those quality teams -
    likely result in covering -3.5 pts @ a 9-6 detroit team
    which is 6-1 on home turf and seeking revenge for
    an earlier loss @ GB ?
    u make da call

    No play is the only play. Maybe bet live.
