Don't these totals seem low?

[BuffaloBill]

GB/CHI 30.5

JAX/CLEV 33.5

Both of these seem really low to me.

I think I will be playing the over in both.

All opinions are appreciated.

Thanks.

Depends on the weather in both places--I think Gb can score an so will Chi--?? GL

Yeah they do, but consider the offense on all four teams...Chicago's games have only gone over twice this year...but I think Chicago will rout in this one...I'm staying away for that reason...thinking like 28-3

Bill,

I think the Jax/Cle total is low just because Leftwich isn't playing and Cleveland probably won't be able to put many points on the board against Jax's D. With the other game, I think it's two things... Chicago's D could realistically shut GB out, and the weather could be pretty bad this time of year in CHI. I wouldn't be surprised to see a snowstorm. I would guess that at least one of those games will stay under. Just my opinion... good luck whatever you choose.

no total in a bears game seems low...in fact at 30-33 each week they seem high.....

will we see our first total lower than 28 when the snowstorm hits sunday in chicago???

Yeah they want it aroun 20 degrees at gametime.....Bears Games have been a combined 32 or lower in 9 of 11 games!! Last 3: 26,16,23. So no, the total doesnt seem too low.

Bears have made me money this year, but I will stay away from them on the side this week. Packers have won at Soldier Field 11 straight times. I will not lay the 7, I will just enjoy it.

i like the seven points, possibly even a money line play with green bay...not cause they are any good though...they have won how ever many straight at soldier field, they also have been tough against the run this year, and we all know how well the bears pass...i see a 13-10 game, and wouldn't be surprised at all if gb leaves with an upset...bears got one they shouldn't have last week, and now everyone is chalking this one up already!

The over in Green Bay

The over in Green Bay

Becareful that Packer offense is playing with receivers and running backs who can't even play in NFL Europe. Teams just double team Driver who is average at best. Special team return units are awful. Last week the running game was deceptive as Gado had one big run for 33 yards take that away and he only averaged 2.7 yards per carry. The only hole he can find is one with hair around it. The field goal unit has been poor this season as BJ Sanders has been a flop as a holder and Longwell has lost confidence in him. The Packer defense has played well until the game is on the line expect them to get worn down late in the game and the Bears will win a close one . I would be surprised to see a high scoring game because the weakness of the packer defense is the safeties and linebackers. The Packers have been burned by good tight ends and good 3rd wide outs which the Bears do not have. This will be very low scoring. I see quite a few people ready to jump on the total because it is so low but this Packer offense is really bad right now and would be surprised to see them score more than 10 in less than ideal weather conditions.
