Monday Night Pick - 3-Star

Game: Green Bay Packers vs. Chicago Bears
Line-O/U: Green Bay (-3)
Pick: Green Bay Packers
Reason: Green Bay is averaging nearly 112 yards rushing per game, even with Grant sidelined for the year, and Chicago has only average 70 in their first two games. The 300+ passing attack that Chicago has averaged is facing the toughest DB's yet, lead by pro bowler Charles Woodson. Cutler is prone to making mistakes and many of them coming in important games. I don't think Mike Martz can have an impact on that - it's just part of Cutler's game. Both defenses have looked tremendous, with both allowing an average below 20 points per game. Green Bay should clear this one by a touchdown, and if Aaron Rodgers is on, like he is 99.9% of the time, than he may tear apart the Bears secondary. The only worry to look out for: Julius Peppers. Green Bay's offensive line needs to really protect Rodgers during this game or turnovers can cost them the game, especially playing at Soldier Field. In the end, the Packers will hold their own and Rodgers will lead them to a 3-0 start. This is a 3-STAR pick.
