Bears-Packers on Thursday Night Football

Bears-Packers is the NFL's Oldest Rivalry

The NFL’s longest-standing rivalry continues Thursday night at 8:25 PM ET, on CBS. The Chicago Bears meet the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field in what could be a blowout unless the Bears get some better play at quarterback.

These two teams have played each other 194 times since 1921. The all-time series is all even at 94-94-6 heading into their latest showdown. he Packers have won six of the last seven games. Oddsmakers have the Packers as 7-point favorites tonight with a total of 45.5.

Green Bay (2-1 SU, 1-2 ATS) is one of the better teams in the NFL, and arguably the most popular, but the Packers haven’t covered since Week 1, and they needed overtime to beat the Cincinnati Bengals 27-24 last Sunday as 8-point home favorites.

The Packers lost yet another offensive lineman in that game: RT Kyle Murphy (foot) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

The Bears (1-2 SU, 2-1 ATS) got their first win of 2017 last Sunday in another overtime thriller, beating the Pittsburgh Steelers 23-17 as 7.5-point home dogs. But they’re also growing perilously thin on the offensive line.

Bears Center Hroniss Grasu (hand) left the game early and remains iffy for Thursday, as does RG Josh Sitton (ribs). Safety Quintin Demps is out indefinitely as well with a broken forearm.

Cubs go to St. Louis for a Four Game Set

Cubs Can Clinch NL Central Winning Two Against St. Louis

The Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals are set to open a four game series on Monday when they meet at New Busch Stadium. The Cubs are on the verge of taking the first step toward defending their World Series championship, winning a division title.

Oddsmakers opened the Cardinals as -123-moneyline favorites versus the Cubs, while the game's total opened at 8.5. The line now shows St. Louis as a -143-moneyline favorite. The total has dropped to 8.

The Cubs magic number is two. This is surprising considering this: The Cubs were 43-45 and 5 1/2 games behind the Milwaukee Brewers at the All-Star break. They have been red-hot adn  are 44-23 since the break. They have been in sole possession of first place since beating the Arizona Diamondbacks on Aug. 13.

Jon Lester will be the starting pitcher for the Cubs on this day. Left hander Lester is 11-8 this season with a 4.56 ERA.

The Cubs are 10-2 in their past 12 games. Three of those wins occurred at Wrigley Field against St. Louis.

St. Louis On Verge of Missing Postseason

It'll be Luke Weaver toeing the rubber for the Cardinals in this contest. The Right handed Weaver is 7-1 with a 2.05 ERA so far this season.

St. Louis is on the verge of being eliminated from the division race. They still alive in the wild-card chase. The Cardinals are 2 1/2 games behind the Colorado Rockies (84-72) for the second NL wild card.

The Cardinals rebounded from getting swept by winning four consecutive games. They were outscored 15-7 in losing the final two games of their three-game series at Pittsburgh this weekend.

 The Cardinals also need some better production at the plate. Matt Carpenter homered Sunday, but the offense went 3-for-15 with runners in scoring position in the two losses to Pittsburgh.

Cardinals Host the Cardinals on Monday Night Football

Monday Night Football Could Set Tone for the Season

The Dallas Cowboys and the Arizona Cardinals will meet on Monday Night Football at University of Phoenix Stadium. It will be the end of the NFL Week 3 campaign. The game will be televised nationally by ESPN and kickoff is set for 8:30 EST.

This game could propel either team's early-season fortunes in the right or the wrong direction. the Cardinals and the Cowboys will need to play more consistent than they have in the first two weeks of the NFL season.

Oddsmakers opened the Cowboys as -3.5-point favorites versus the Cardinals, while the game's total opened at 47.5. The line now is Dallas -3 and the total has dropped to 46.5

Cardinals Playing First Home Game in a Month

Last time out for Arizona, they were a 16-13 winner as they battled the Indianapolis Colts on the road. The Cardinals failed to cover as a -6.5-point favorite, while 29 combined points moved the game UNDER for totals bettors.

The Cardinals are just happy to be playing at home. They played their first two games on the road and three of their past four overall. This includes the preseason and all games have been in an Eastern time zone. They lost their opener at Detroit 35-21. The Cards rebounded on the road last week in overtime at Indianapolis. They played their final two preseason games in Atlanta and Houston.

The Cardinals could turn to their second new starting running back in two weeks. Since losing star David Johnson to a left wrist injury in Week 1they have turned to Kerwynn Williams. He was the starter against the Colts last week. It appears coach Bruce Arians will turn to veteran Chris Johnson as the starter against the Cowboys.

Besides Johnson, Arizona is expected to be without starting left tackle D.J. Humphries with a sprained MCL. Wide receiver John Brown is also out with a quadriceps injury.

Cowboys Elliott Looks to Redeem Himself in the Clubhouse After Being Called Out

In their last action, Dallas was a 42-17 loser on the road against the Denver Broncos. They failed to cover the -2.5-point spread as favorites, while the combined score (59) was profitable news for OVER bettors.

Ezekiel Elliott has a chance for redemption inside his own locker room tonight. His efforts were called into question during Dallas' shellacking last Sunday in Denver. His lack of hustle and competitiveness was obvious when he showed zero-to-little interest trying to tackle someone following Dak Prescott's two interceptions. One was returned for a touchdown. Elliott turned away from the play with his hand on his hips.

Elliott had more carries (nine) than rushing yards (eight) in the rout against the Broncos.

Detroit Lions Host Atlanta Falcons in Best NFL Week 3 Matchup

Detroit Lions Surprise of NFL So Far

The Atlanta Falcons and the Detroit Lions both try to stay undefeated on Sunday when they meet at Ford Field. Kickoff is set for 1 pm EST. FOX Sports will have coverage of the game. When the NFL schedules were made in the offseason, not many would have circled this game as the premier game of NFL Week 3.

Oddsmakers opened the Falcons as -3-point favorites versus the Lions, while the game's total opened at 48.5.  The line is still Falcons -3, but the total has risen to 51 at a few sportsbooks.

Detroit Lions Defense is Surprise of the League

Detroit won its last outing 24-10 against the New York Giants on September 18. The Lions covered in that game as a +3-point underdog, while the 34 combined points took the game UNDER the total.

Opponents have only scored 33 points against the Lions this year. They also have an interception return for a touchdown. The Lions already have six sacks, three forced fumbles and have picked off four passes. They sacked Giants quarterback Eli Manning five times last week. Three of those were by defensive end Ziggy Ansah.

Detroit relies on the powerful right arm of Matthew Stafford. That's why they awarded him the richest contract in NFL history at the end of training camp. Stafford has thrown six touchdown passes. That ties him for the league lead with Denver's Trevor Siemian.

Falcons Coming Off Dominating Win Over Packers

In their last action, Atlanta was a 34-23 winner at home against the Green Bay Packers. They covered the -3-point spread as favorites, while the combined score (57) was profitable news for OVER bettors. The game was not as close as the score, as the Falcons dominated from opening kickoff.

Quarterback Matt Ryan has completed 69 percent of his passes and thrown two touchdowns this season. Running back Devonta Freeman has scored three times. He is also averaging 3.9 yards per carry. The receiving tandem of Julie Jones and Mohamed Sanu has combined for 20 catches and 306 yards.

The Falcons have shown a strong pass rush with seven sacks. They will be without top edge rusher Vic Beasley Jr. He has been declared out with a hamstring injury. Beasley could miss up to a month. Defensive lineman Courtney Upshaw will also sit out with an ankle injury.
