Model Predictions
SportsLine's simulation model, which has returned over $5,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since inception and holds a 58-51 record since 2024, projects the Under 47 points. The Under has hit in three of the last four head-to-head matchups, three of Carolina's last five games, and each of Green Bay's last four games. The Packers average 20.6 points per game (tied for 24th in the league). The model also indicates one side of the spread hits in well over 60% of simulations.
