Mike Sherman and Lovie Smith match wits in Packers/Bears game
If revenge is for suckers, the Bears will be looking to suck it up against the Packers, who beat them 31-14 in their last meeting.
The Bears look to avenge an earlier 31-14 loss at the hands of the Packers.
Oddsmakers like the Bears in this one, opening the line at 6.5 in favor of Chicago. They are 7-3-1 ATS this season, while the Packers are 5-6. The total, which is 5-6 to the OVER in Bears games and 4-7 to the OVER in Packers games, has been set at 32.
The Packers come off a 19-14 loss against Philadelphia, a game where they were 4-point underdogs. The game went under the closing total of 41.5.
Lovie Smith's troops were at Tampa Bay last game and came away with a 13-10 win, a game that went under 31. Oddsmakers had them as 3-point underdogs in that one.
Green Bay's ground game hasn't been much to write home about, averaging just 75.5 yards per game on the season, 31st place in the league. They need a better effort from their running backs to be effective in moving the ball and keeping the Bears offence off the field.
