Coming into this NFL regular season, the Green Bay Packers were considered Super Bowl title contenders and for good reason as they have one of the most potent offenses and arguably one of the best defenses in the league.
Even though the Packers have a relatively easy schedule compared to other Super Bowl title contenders like the Indianapolis Colts, Dallas Cowboys and the Minnesota Vikings, Aaron Rodgers and company were tested right out of the gate against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1.
They must be doing some thing right in the eyes of the online sportsbooks odds makers as they have the Packers at -12.5 over the Bills. That’s as large a line as we have seen this season.
Unfortunately for the Eagles, they saw their starting quarterback Kevin Kolb go down with a concussion early in this matchup, but Michael Vick stepped in and looked like his former self as he ran all over the Packers secondary with 103 rushing yards.
Along with rushing for over a 100+ yards, Vick also threw for 175 yards and a touchdown with no interceptions, but that wasn’t good enough to lead his team to victory as Green Bay went on to win 27-20.
In Week 2, things will only get easier for the Green Bay Packers as they will be at Lambeau Field taking on the lowly Buffalo Bills. Even though the Bills were thought to have one of the better running games in the league with running backs Fred Jackson, Marshawn Lynch and rookie C.J. Spiller coming out of the backfield, the Buffalo was disappointing to say the least against the Miami Dolphins in Week 1 as their ground game was just awful.
Against the Green Bay Packers, the Buffalo Bills will be in for another long day as Charles Woodson and the Packers defense will look to dominate from start to finish against the Bills while Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay offense try to put a huge number on the scoreboard. There are a lot of great options for NFL football betting this week, so make sure to get in early. Green Bay Packers crush Buffalo Bills 45-14
