Game bets
Maldonado: When you strip out turnover luck, Green Bay owns every stable metric advantage: yards per play, third-down efficiency and scoring consistency. Pittsburgh's defense has been boosted by red zone luck and takeaways, while Josh Jacobs draws the most exploitable matchup on the board. Unless T.J. Watt blows it up early, the Packers should control tempo and cover in a one-score win.
Notable player props, bets
Aaron Rodgers to go OVER 1.5 TD passes (-130)
Loza: Rodgers doesn't move like he used to, but he still knows how to score. The 41-year-old has thrown 14 TD passes, tied with Patrick Mahomes for fifth in the league. Green Bay's pass rush figures to get after Rodgers, but the Packers' secondary remains vulnerable. Cornerback Nate Hobbs, who has been nursing a knee injury, has struggled since moving to the boundary, allowing a passer rating of 119.3 (CB76) while giving up two touchdowns. Hobbs will try to contain DK Metcalf, who has found the end zone four times (WR9) thus far. Green Bay has been additionally generous when facing tight ends, having given up the third-most TDs to the position. With Jonnu Smith and Pat Freiermuth (who have combined for four scores) in the mix, Rodgers figures to clear the above line in a revenge game on prime time.
DK Metcalf to go OVER 55.5 receiving yards (-115)
Moody: Metcalf is coming off a disappointing performance against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 7, finishing with just 50 receiving yards as the Steelers leaned more on their tight ends. However, he has cleared this line in three of his last five games, and I'm buying into the revenge-game narrative for Rodgers. Metcalf should be heavily involved in the offensive game plan, given his strong rapport with his QB. The Packers' secondary is tough statistically, but Metcalf's physical tools allow him to overcome difficult matchups, and Green Bay's defense has allowed big performances to Ja'Marr Chase and George Pickens. Metcalf averages 78.0 receiving yards per game in his career when seeing seven or more targets, a number that makes this line feel very attainable.
