Total: 56.00 | -112.00 Under
Result: Win
Total: 56.00 | -112.00 Under
Result: Win
I don't get why this total is so high?
The Packers' defense isn't elite, but it's decent. Pass rusher Za'Darius Smith and cornerback Jaire Alexander are among the best at their respective positions.
No Vita Vea for Tampa Bay. He's a tremendous run-stuffer. But Tampa Bay still has the No. 1 defense in the NFC. The Buccaneers give up the second-fewest yards per game in the NFL.
Green Bay leads the NFL in scoring averaging 38 points. The Packers also have gone against all soft defenses - Vikings, Lions, Saints and Falcons. Every one of those teams rank among the bottom seven in points allowed. Aaron Rodgers has yet to face a pass rushing tandem the equal of Shaquil Barrett and Jason Pierre-Paul.
As for Tampa Bay's offense, we've yet to see vintage Tom Brady. Heck, Brady showed his age, having a senior moment by forgetting it was fourth down on the Bucs' final possession last week against the Bears. The Buccaneers' wideouts are banged-up and Leonard Fournette isn't likely to play leaving the running up to mediocre Ronald Jones.
