NFL- Green Bay Packers -3 -110 at Detroit Lions (5dimes)
“It’s Aaron Rodgers, bro”
Lions safety Glover Quin courtesy the Detroit Free Press (who by the way will be many of the banged up guys who will try to give it a go tonight).
Not only is Quin, more wrong than right in this instance, why would another ignorant professional athlete give a team and QB like A.Rodgers any extra motivation to light them up on prime time in the first place? As if Green Bay's 18-16 loss from around 3 weeks ago wasn’t enough either? Injuries are part of the game so teams have to deal with it but the eye test can sometimes be beneficial in these sort of spots.
Our eyes (me and my friend) know it’s not the end of the world in Packer land because 2 of their losses we’re against two of the stingiest defenses in the league (1 of which is still undefeated in Carolina) and the other 2 (Det,Chi), with as bad as they played they were still within one play of winning each game.
The improvement of Eddie Lacy should test this impenetrable rush defense of Detroit tonight.
