<h2>
Chicago at Green Bay Game Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
Chicago has finished last in the NFC North the previous four seasons, but a highly productive offseason of personnel moves and the recent addition of Khalil Mack has raised expectations for much better results following last year’s 5-11 straight-up mark. The Bears went 2-2 SU with a 3-1 record against the spread to close things out last season with the total staying UNDER or ended as a PUSH in their final six games.
</p>
<p>
Mack is a tremendous addition to a Chicago defense that ended 2017 ranked 10th in the NFL in total yards allowed and ninth in points allowed. On the other side of the ball, second-year quarterback Mitch Trubisky will try and pick up where he left off after throwing for 2,193 yards and seven touchdowns those final five games. The Bears added wide receiver Allen Robinson as an added target in the passing game.
</p>
<p>
It was made pretty apparent last season that Green Bay is going to go as far as future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers can take this team. He missed nine starts last year due to injury and the Packers missed the playoffs for the first time in nine seasons at 7-9 both SU and ATS. The total went OVER in seven of their last nine games of the 2017 regular season.
</p>
<p>
Rodgers will be in the lineup on Sunday night, healthy and ready to go. He will have to adjust to life without one of his favorite targets Jordy Nelson, who is now in Oakland. In his place, Davante Adams should play an even more prominent role in the passing game after leading the team in receptions last year with 74 for 885 yards and 10 touchdowns. Jamaal Williams was Green Bay’s top rusher with 556 yards and four touchdowns on 153 rushing attempts.

Chicago at Green Bay Prediction 09/09/2018

Chicago’s bandwagon is starting to get weighed down as a trendy pick to win the NFC North based on the various additions it has made to its roster. Trubisky should take a step forward, and the addition of Mack makes a solid Bears’ defense even better. Green Bay remains a trendy pick to win the division with Rodgers back under center.

When it comes to this Sunday night’s matchup, my lean is towards Green Bay SU at home. However, I love the extra half point on the touchdown spread in the Bears’ favor to make Chicago my top betting pick ATS.
