This week we have the longest rivalry in the NFL, two teams that give it their all every time they play each other.   The Bears still have a shot at the playoffs but the Packers would like nothing more than to spoil their hopes.   These two teams are equal in talent but the edge has to go to the Bears.   Look for the Bears to just find a way to win, with a true team effort.  

Point Spread 27-18 Bears

Monday Night Guarantee

So it hasn’t been a good year for me this year on my Monday Night picks but it still looks like my Superbowl choices have a chance (check out my pre-season prediction in the football section.)  This week is another tough one but… “I got this.”  Green Bay takes on New Orleans or “Norlens if ya from the bayou”.  These are two teams that can put up some points, so I am going to have to go with the team that is more complete and that is Green Bay.  Both teams will put points on the board, but while Green Bay’s defense is not playing that well it is still better than the Saints and that is going to be the difference.  Look for Green Bay’s defense to come up big late in second half and then again late in the fourth. 

Point spread Green Bay wins in a shootout (38-33)
