Top Packers vs. Patriots predictions

After 10,000 simulations of Patriots vs. Packers, the model is going Under 44.5 points (-105) at betting apps. The last five New England games have gone Over the number, while the last five involving Green Bay have finished Under. 

Love leads the NFL in passing yards (2,246) with 16 TDs and has thrived attacking downfield to Christian Watson and Matthew Golden. The Packers' run game ranks last in the league, however, so the offense is one-dimensional. Green Bay's opportunistic defense (15 takeaways, second in the NFL) will test Drake Maye, who has paced a Pats offense scoring 29.6 ppg the last five outings. 

But New England faces significant headwinds with Brown and Henderson out and Hunter Henry (foot) listed as questionable. The model projects 43 combined points as the Under hits 56% of the time. See which team to back at SportsLine.
