In Green Bay (TOP PLAY):
“Do you see any similarities between Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers and how they’ve elevated their games?”
Belichick: They both wear number 12. Quote [Belichick leaves the building].
Bill Belichick has always been vague with the media. Never inciting anything and just showing up and whooping ass. Might as well have said that they’re both quarterbacks, they sometimes make touchdowns and throw balls. I was surprised to see his team as underdogs here as they’re ranked first in the league on the Sagarin USA today chart, their opponent, the Packers struggled this season and with a fairly easy schedule comparatively, Patriots are leading the league in points scored adjusted to non defensive scoring, Packers are second to last in the league for offensive possessions after the Saints (troubles on defense?), Patriots 1st in the league for average scoring possessions, they’re in the top five in the league for fewest QB getting sacked’s, Packers second in the league next to the over rated Eagles for non-offensive touchdowns scored, over on defense, the Packers are struggling averaging a top 10 bad ty’s per game at 369.8 while the Patriots are over in the top 15. The Packers are in the top 5 in the league for worst rushing yards per attempt defenses. If there has ever been somebody who could be versatile in a tough game, it is Bill Belichick. If somehow the sky falls and Brady can’t make it to beast Gronkowski, there is plenty of room to hit the Packers shoddy rush defense up for some extra pickup yards.
Alright, now hold on tight:
*Tom Brady is 13-4 ATS as an underdog. 10-6 SU 12-4 ATS with a line of -0.5 to +6.5.
**Bill Belichick and the Patriots are 50-9 SU (+8.76 ppg, 84.7%) after allowing 10 or fewer points last game.
**The Patriots are on fire right now, and Bill Belichick and the Patriots are 35-2-0 (+10.78 ppg, 94.6%) SU after covering the spread in 6 or more of their last 8 games.
Based on those things getting the Patriots at +152 right now how they’re playing if a bettor’s dream come true.
I am aware of the level that Rodgers is playing at inthe home game; however, the Patriots’ secondary is unlike the teams Rodgers has been up against: Eagles, Saints, Vikings, Bears, Panthers. The Patriots defense has dealt with the Lions (“best defense in NFL”), Colts, and Broncos in their last 3. Also interesting: the most similar offense we’ve seen the Packers defense go up against was theNew Orleans Saints, in which they allowed a massive 44 points and lost the game.
