There\u2019s usually a little bit of fudging on the odds for a team\u2019s over\/under, skewing a bit in one direction or the other. However, that\u2019s not the case with the Green Bay Packers heading into 2025, as at least one sportsbook has the team\u2019s win total set squarely with equal odds for the over and the under.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">As of Thursday, <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.fanduel.com\/navigation\/nfl\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FanDuel Sportsbook has Green Bay set for 9.5 wins<\/a> for the upcoming season. But what\u2019s notable is that the book has the Packers set for -110 odds for both sides of the bet, indicating that they think the probability of the team finishing with 10 or more wins is exactly the same as them ending up with 9 or fewer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Wondering which side of that total to lean towards? One place to look is recent history. The Packers went 11-6 last season, finishing as a top-ten team in points and yards on both offense and defense. However, the 2023 squad went 9-8 but still made the playoffs, earning a victory in the Wild Card round that season instead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Maybe analytic projections are more your speed. <a href=\"http:\/\/Maybe analytic projections are more your speed. Austin Mock from The Athletic has the Packers projected for 9.8 wins this season, which ties them for the fourth-best mark in the NFC. That suggests that the over would be the better option.

NFL.com did that this week, with two writers (including noted Bears fan and Packers hater Adam Rank) looking at every game across the NFL. Both of these writers have Green Bay hitting the over with double digits, though Rank has the Bears sweeping the Packers and Green Bay going 3-6 down the stretch after a 7-1 start.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.fanduel.com\/navigation\/nfl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">FanDuel Sportsbook<\/a> is holding a Flash Sale on Tuesday, August 26 where you can get profit boost tokens around various futures markets throughout the day.
