Last week, the Green Bay Packers lost a game in which they were favored against the Cleveland Browns by 7.5 points. It was painfully close for the first 57 minutes and then ended with a cavalcade of huge, embarrassing failures.
Speaking of huge, embarrassing failures: The Dallas Cowboys just got blown out by the Chicago Bears. After weeks of speculation about the future of Caleb Williams, the Cowboys sure gave him a big boost to his confidence. Williams gashed Los Vaqueros for a career-high 142.6 passer rating.
This is great news for the Packers, as Jordan Love hasn’t had multiple exposés written about his lack of ability or potential of having a learning disability. Instead, Jordan was one game shy of setting a franchise record for games without an interception.
The folks over at Fanduel agreed. They had the Packers open as 5.5-point favorites as the visitors to Jerruh World. The confidence has continued to rise over the last few days as the line has moved to Green Bay -6.5.
Here’s hoping that the faith is not misplaced and the Pack can continue their undefeated streak in the house that Jones Oil and Land Lease built.
