Packers vs. Bears Betting Line – Week 1: DFS Players Need to Watch Davante Adams
The Packers vs. Bears betting line for 2015 Week 1 had Bears as a +6.5 home underdog early on.
The Packers haven’t lost that much steam despite losing a key player for much of the season to a knee injury, that being Jordy Nelson. Green Bay can ill-afford to lose any more difference makers. They were still the favorites to win the 2016 Super Bowl at just shy of 7-1 odds.
As Gambling911.com noted last week, the Packers organization plan to utilize Davante Adams more in Nelson’s place, just making him a top star for Daily Fantasy Sports players the first few weeks of the season at least.
"When you go back and watch the film from last year, I mentioned in the spring, Davante was open a lot," Rodgers said. "Davante ran some great routes, and he's a talented guy. I think his opportunities go up, and everybody else kind of falls in line there. The third receiver's going to get some opportunities. We have a talented two-headed run game, a great offensive line. We're going to have good balance this year. There's going to be some one-on-ones outside, and we look for matchups, so that third guy could get the matchup and is going to need to produce."
