Prediction
Packers 27, Bears 13
Money line (?)
PASS. The Packers will win, but the -417 price is not worth the risk.
Against the spread (?)
GREEN BAY -8 (-110) is the STRONGEST PLAY – 1.5 times your usual wager. Look for Rodgers to continue his domination of Chicago. Plus, the Packers have had a full week to think about how they blew it at Indy last Sunday – they led 28-14 at the half before losing in OT.
Over/Under (?)
The UNDER 43.5 (-106) is the way to go. The Bears are 3-7 vs. the O/U this season, averaging just 19.1 points per game to rank second-to-last in the NFL. Plus, their defense is a stingy one, allowing 20.9 PPG to rank sixth.
Just beware of the Packers offense, which scores 30.8 PPG, third-best in the league.

Everything was going for the Green Bay Packers this season– Aaron Rodgers secured the NFL MVP award, the Packers clinched home field advantage, and secured a spot in the NFC Championship game. For the 2020-21 season, anything besides a Super Bowl run would be considered a letdown. Unfortunately, a letdown the season was as Green Bay was beaten in the NFC Championship by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. To make things worse, coach Matt LaFleur made a highly-criticized call to kick a field goal instead of attempting to tie the ballgame and Rodgers never got the ball back.
Several key pieces including All Pro center Corey Linsley and a handful of starters are set to become free agents this season. However, storylines will be centered around Rodgers’ future with the Packers. The NFL MVP made comments following their playoff exit indicating his future with the team was “uncertain.” With recently-drafted quarterback Jordan Love waiting, will Green Bay send their franchise guy elsewhere to roll with the youngster?
Either way, the 2021-22 Packers will look different than we’re used to in recent years. Did the Super Bowl window close on Aaron Rodgers? Only time will tell.
Green Bay Packers odds
Best Packers betting site(s)
Packers prop bets
Prop bets are based on individual performance, typically surrounding players. Davante Adams lit the NFL on fire in 2020, making him one of the most popular players for prop betting. For example, Adams’ projected receiving total in the Packers’ Week 9 matchup with the San Francisco 49ers was 106.5 yards. That game, he hauled in 173 yards, giving those who bet over his receiving prop the win.

Packers futures odds
Futures are long-term bets that can range from an offseason to a full season (or beyond). Team win totals, award winners, and player performance are common futures. For example:
2020 Odds to win NFL MVP
- Patrick Mahomes +350
- Lamar Jackson +600
- Russell Wilson +800
- Aaron Rodgers +2500
This line for the league MVP would often be bet before the season starts. Futures allow for bettors to capitalize on players they think are favorites to win awards long before the odds shift away from their favor. For example, Aaron Rodgers opened with odds of +2500 to win the MVP award; his odds quickly shifted as the season developed and Rodgers was the eventual winner of the award.

How to bet on the Green Bay Packers
Packers Bears Game Kickoff
Moneyline
The moneyline is the simplest of bets, decided by the straight-up winner and loser of each game. Consider the following example:
- Packers -245
- Cardinals +190
The Packers are considered heavy favorites in this matchup (indicated by -245), requiring a $245 bet to win $100 (plus the initial bet back). The Cardinals are the underdog in this matchup, paying out $290 total for a $100 bet ($190 in winnings). How much either team wins or loses by does not matter in moneyline betting, the payout remains the same.
Point spread
Betting on the point spread is determinant on how many points a team wins or loses by. Take the following example:
- Packers -8.5 (-110)
- Patriots +8.5 (-110)
Packers Bears Game Video
In this example, Green Bay is favored by 8.5 points, indicated by “-8.5.” If the Packers win the game 31-20, the Packers (-8.5) win the bet and would have a total payout of $19.09 on a $10 bet ($9.09 in profit). If the Patriots keep the game within nine and lose 23-17, the Patriots (+8.5) would win, and the payout would be the same as listed above.
Point total (over/under)
The point total refers to the over/under line set by books. This number projects the total number of points scored in a game and, like prop betting, is bet whether one thinks the score will go over or under the set point total. For example, Green Bay’s Week 7 matchup against the Houston Texans had a projected point total of 49.5 points. The Packers won the game 35-20, resulting in 55 combined points and giving those who bet the over the win.
The Packers’ offense was one of the most prolific in the NFL in 2020. Their defense was also excellent, keeping most teams between 14 and 21 points this year. Because of Green Bay’s potential, their games often saw higher than league average point totals between 48 and 54 points. Moving into 2021, there won’t be much of a change; the Packers will still garner high projected point totals.
In-play and live betting
Sometimes, the most thrilling and rewarding bets are bets made while games are being played. These are referred to as live bets or in-play bets. Odds are ever-changing during games, which would prove to be fruitful for sharp and prepared bettors. For example, if the Packers (-115) were favored against the Bills (+120) before kickoff, a payout on a $10 bet on the Packers to win would win $8.70.
However, say the Packers fell to a 14-3 deficit in the first half despite controlling the overall game (due to a costly turnover or special teams gaffe). Odds may swing in favor of the Bills, who may be a -110 favorite at halftime. Taking the Packers to come back and win the game could present plus-odds (say, +130). Should a bettor take Green Bay (+130) at halftime and the Packers pull off the comeback, winners would win $13 instead of $8.70 (plus the initial $10 bet).
Betting Line On Packers Bears Game Time
This could also be an effective way to “hedge” your bet; say a bettor took the Bills (+120) in that game, but Green Bay jumps out to a 16-0 first quarter lead and is controlling the overall feel of the game, bettors could hedge by throwing some money down on Green Bay (-270) to return some of the inevitably-lost bet.
Parlays and teasers
You can always string bets together in the form of parlays or teasers. Usually during busy Sundays, bettors can parlay several teams to win or cover against the spread and if all bets are successful, the payouts are multiplied. Teasers function similarly, except they allow bettors to move each point spread to a more favorable line in exchange for diminished odds.
Packers 2020 recap
Record: 13-3
Record ATS: 10-6
Over/under record: 9-7
It was another year of dominance for the Packers, who piled up their second consecutive 13-win season in 2020. They had wins over the Saints, the Bears (twice), and the Titans, giving them a real championship pedigree. Unfortunately, their season came to an end at the hands of the eventual-champion Buccaneers and Tom Brady. For Green Bay, it almost felt like their last hurrah coming up short and closed the book on another missed Super Bowl opportunity.
The real show of strength from the Packers came in their convincing wins against seemingly-great teams. Namely, their 40-14 blowout of the Titans in Week 16 and 41-25 dismantling of the Bears in Week 12 showed just how good Green Bay was. Their 10-6 mark against the spread was tied for third best in the NFL with the Ravens and Steelers.
Packers 2021 offseason moves
Key free agents: Corey Linsley (C), Christian Kirksey (LB), Ricky Wagner (RT), Kevin King (CB), Chandon Sullivan (CB), Jamaal Williams (RB), Allen Lazard (WR), Aaron Jones (RB)
Draft pick position needs: OT, WR, CB, DL, LB
The Packers have some work to do this offseason with some of their most prolific players. All-Pro center Corey Linsely is likely their highest priority as franchise designations near. After a dismal performance in the NFC Championship game, it’s likely Kevin King (projected to make $5.3 million in guarantees) will be headed elsewhere this offseason. Aaron Jones has been a popular name when discussing franchise tags and Jamaal Williams will likely not be re-signed with the presence of A.J. Dillion.
Aaron Rodgers– like most quarterbacks– was under duress often against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, especially with All Pro tackle David Bakhtiari missing. The need to bulk up the offensive line is undeniable if Green Bay wants to keep Rodgers in town. However, their decision last year to pass on drafting a pass catcher was also much maligned. With such a deep receiving class, the Packers will likely wait until later rounds to grab playmakers. Players Green Bay could take a look at with the 29th pick include Notre Dame’s Liam Eichenburg, North Dakota State’s Dillion Radnuz, and Clemson’s Jackson Carman.
