This is a 10* SIDE PLAY on the Green Bay Packers.

The Rams are injured. LA managed to beat the Seahawks last weekend, but I don't expect to see lightning strike twice. Jared Goff is ready to go under center for the visiting side, but he's still nursing a broken thumb.

Aaron Rodgers and the Packers are coming off an MVP season and I expect a full four-quarter effort here.

Yes, the Rams slowed down division rival Russell Westbrook effecitvely last weekend, but the injury to defensive standout Aaron Donald is significant.

Donald should play today, but clearly he wont be at 100% health.

It's difficult to win on the road in the NFL. It's even more diffiuclt to win and cover on the road. And it's super hard to win and cover back-to-back road games in the playoffs.

It's not happening today for the overachieving Rams. I'm laying the points and expecting a blowout of epic proportions!

Good luck, NP
