Stephen Nover's Sunday Night Blockbuster
(NFL) NY Giants vs. Green Bay,
Total: 47.50 | -105.00 Under
Result: Loss
Aaron Rodgers is very good at any venue, but he's an absolute monster at Lambeau Field where since 2014 he has thrown 46 touchdown passes and been picked off just four times. The Giants' defense is improved, but not nearly enough to slow down Green Bay's offense, which showed definite improvement in its last game and is coming off a bye. Jordy Nelson is nearing 100 percent, making a big difference for Green Bay.

The Giants only have four sacks. They are weak defensively inside with below average linebackers and their secondary is beat-up with slot cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and cornerback Eli Apple looking like they're going to miss a second straight game. Free safety Darian Thompson may not play either due to a foot injury. That would mean New York would be missing three of its top five secondary people.

Kirk Cousins had a 106.4 passer rating against the Giants two weeks ago and Sam Bradford turned in a 101.9 quarterback rating this past Monday against New York. This bodes well for a huge game from Rodgers.

The Giants are due for a breakout game on offense - and I see that coming here against a 29th-ranked Packers secondary giving up a 66 percent completion rate and 307 yards through the air. The Packers won't have Sam Shields, their best cornerback, and may also be missing their next best cornerback, Demarious Randall. The Giants have a strong passing attack they've just been slowed by turnovers.

Giants coach Ben McAdoo knows the Packers well having been an offensive assistant in Green Bay from 2006-2013. The Packers haven't faced a wide receiver the caliber of Odell Beckham Jr. yet. Stefon Diggs lit up the Packers secondary for 182 yards on nine receptions three weeks ago. Then in their last game, the Packers surrendered 205 receiving yards and two touchdowns to Marvin Jones. Those were easily career-bests for Diggs and Jones.

Weather won't be a factor with clear skies, no wind and temperatures in the low 50s.
