In support of Green Bay
In 2003, Monday Night hosts went 5-11 SU and ATS.
Green Bay in the season?s opening month are 28-12 SU last 10 years.
Favre owns an 125-64 SU record as a starter.
Cheeseheads under the Monday Night lights are 9-2 ATS including 4-0 SU and ATS in their last four as a guest in that role.
In support of Carolina
Dating back to 1980, Monday Night non-division hosts stand a respectable 118-85 ATS (58%) including 80-45 (64%) priced from -5 to +5.
Since 1987, game one underdogs that had 10 or more victories last season are 7-26 SU and 12-19-2 ATS, including 4-16 SU and 5-13-2 ATS record priced at +3 or less. Against an opponent that won seven or more games last season, game one road teams are 1-14 SU and 2-11-2 ATS.
Finally, the Super Bowl loser is 0-4 SU and ATS record in their season opener since 2000. It should be noted that the last four Super Bowl losers Tennessee, New York Giants, St. Louis and Oakland all opened up on the road. However, over the past 23 years, the Super Bowl loser is 8-4 SU and ATS when opening the season at home.
The Packers have struggled in road openers going 2-5 SU and 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven. Green Bay when they have Chicago on deck, are 16-27 ATS.
It all points to Carolina covering this line. The Packers will watch helplessly as Panthers QB Jake Delhomme, RB Stephen Davis and WR Steve Smith make Swiss cheese out of this unit.
