Early total bettors have however faded both offenses with the O/U down to 44.5. Detroit has proven to have a vastly improved run defense and enters this tilt off accruing seven sacks.

Green Bay Packers Week 3 Recap

Run Defense had been a major issue for the Packers defense through the first two weeks of the regular season. That however wasn’t a problem area in Sunday’s insane fourth quarter comeback that saw Green Bay rattle off 18 unanswered to log the exhilarating 18-17 outright win and cover against the New Orleans Saints as short 1-point home dogs. Per the closing odds, the end result ended up being a loser for the online sportsbook but the point spread fluctuated all week with Green Bay initially hitting the board 3-point home favorites. The win was much needed for Matt LaFleur’s squad who only last week spit the bit in the fourth quarter and allowed the Atlanta Falcons to battle back from a 24-12 third quarter deficit to score the 25-24 comeback win. In shutting down the run limiting New Orleans to 77 yards on 3.6 yards per carry and knocking Derek Carr out of the game in the third quarter, the defense put the offense in a position to win the game. Rashan Gary was a major contributor and gets a game ball due to the havoc he created that produced a team-high three sacks! Jordan Love and Co. took full advantage even though they were without their RB1 and a number of key cogs along the offensive line. Though Jayden Reed only managed to haul in three of seven targets for 63 yards, each occurred when needed most with the Packers on the comeback trail. Romeo Doubs got in the act as well hauling in the game winner with fewer than three minutes remaining. The extra point earned Green Bay the win after LaFleur elected to go for two and convert it following Love’s 1-yard touchdown plunge. Even so, the 35 combined points fell well short of the closing 41.5-point total which proved to be another loser for those booking the bets.
