The Week 2 game hosting the Vikings will say plenty. It's a game the Packers, at least on paper, should win.
San Francisco is supposed to be good this season thanks to their red hot finish last year, but that game will take place in Green Bay.
On the road, the Packers should have a tough time against the Rams, Patriots and Vikings. That actually gives us plenty of wiggle room for an OVER 10. Maybe a loss on the road in Seattle and at home to Atlanta.
2018 Betting Outlook
The Packers fell below the .500 mark for the first time since 2008. This was due to Aaron Rodgers unfortunate injury early on in the season. Still, it doesn't bode well when the rest of the team can't pick up the slack.
The addition of Jimmy Graham from Seattle as a red zone threat. DL Muhammad Wilkerson from the Jets is a solid interior defender.
Losing Morgan Burnett will be hard on the Packers but the new additions should offset this. CB Tramon Williams (from the Cardinals) will help boost the secondary.
If they can win one or more of what should be three tough road games, they will have a chance to go all the way. Just stay healthy Aaron Rodgers.
