NFL Betting: Underdog Chicago Beats Green Bay
The Chicago Bears posted a 20–17 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Monday, courtesy of the 19-yard field goal by Robbie Gould with 4 seconds remaining.
Attracting just over 70% of the NFL betting action, the Green Bay Packers were the clear favorites over the Chicago Bears among LinesMaker bettors. With the betting line at –3, they disappointed the majority of NFL betting fans by losing to the underdogs.
The game-winning kick from Gould came after a Packers turnover in the fourth, that helped Chicago to make an unbelievable 3–0 start to the NFL season.
Packers’ receiver James Jones grabbed a 12-yard pass by Aaron Rodgers, however, the linebacker tandem of Lance Briggs and Brian Urlacher stripped him of the ball near the sideline. Tim Jennings pulled through the fumble at the Green Bay 46, while the ball went to the Bears following the Packers challenge.
The Bears ran out the clock to arrange for Gould’s winning kick, following the 21-yards pass of Jay Cutler to tight end Greg Olsen.
Completing 16-of-27 for 221 yards, Cutler scored a touchdown with an interception for Green Bay (2–1), while Rodgers finished 34-of-45 for 316 yards.
The Packers had a team-record 17 penalties in the game.
