Betting On The Game Total

The total in this game is set perfectly where it is, both teams have solid offenses but also both have something to prove on defense. Although it might seem that the Packers could do the bulk of the scoring, let's not forget that Jalen Ramsey will be assigned to Davante Adams, who puts up the majority of the offense.

On the Packers' side, it could be easy to overlook their defense being that Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams are a walking highlight reel, but they are stacked on defense as well. With guys like Jaire Alexander, Za’Darius Smith and Kenny Clark, they could easily hold the Rams defense in check.

Noting that, bettors should really consider taking the under in this one as both defenses have something to prove in this one.
