According to Week 12 NFL odds and oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com, the Falcons are 1-point favorites over the Packers on Sunday. The over/under total for this game is currently 47.5 points.
The Packers are 7-3 overall this year and 6-4 against the spread according to latest NFL trends. They’re 3-2 on the road this year and have covered in three of their five games away from Lambeau Field this year.
The Falcons are 8-2 straight up and have covered in six of their 10 games this season. They’re a perfect 5-0 at home this year and have covered in three of their five games at the Georgia Dome.
NFL Week 12 Free Pick:
Everyone is expecting fireworks in this game – and for good reason. The Falcons have a ton of weapons on the offensive side of the ball, including quarterback Matt Ryan, running back Michael Turner, outstanding receiver Roddy White and tight end Tony Gonzalez. The Packers have just as many weapons and QB Aaron Rodgers could take advantage of an Atlanta secondary that gives up a ton of yards. That said, the Packers’ defense has been great of late and while the Falcons will allow teams to move the ball, they tighten up when their opponents get inside the red zone. The under is 5-0 in the Packers’ last five road games and 4-0 in their last four road games versus a team with a winning home record. We expect both offenses to come on slowly and both defenses to play well throughout. Our pick is the under 47.5.
