Does anyone else think the sportbooks are out of their mind for having GB as a 3 pt dog? Last year I made a killing off of this bet. Detroit came in as a big favorite winning 3 straight and GB had a rough start. The money line was like+400 last year. Even though it isn't nearly as good this year I have to think this is a great play. Detroit's offense is terrible. Flat out terrible. Greenbay will win the game and they won't need the extra 3 points to do it. I have to think the spread and the money line is a great play. Maybe I'm nuts but I'm gonna throw a ton of money at this bet again.

Detroit is the trendy pick to go deep in the playoffs, with their 3 high first round WR. Their offense is hardly "terrible".

There starting offense was terrible in the preseason, and I know its preseason, but intill they show differently its all I've seen.

Betting Packers also.

its not the whole offense...just the worst starting QB in the league this side of the dolphins in Joey Harrington

Detroit is the trendy pick by "TV analysts" that get paid regardless of their foresight...My sportsbook has them at worse than even odds to get into the playoffs, forget getting deep.

OK, I'm just giving some rationale to the other side; you either believe Detroit's offense is the real deal, or you don't. Add that Detroit is at home, and the spread makes sense.
