It’s another NFL Sunday, but there is also plenty of NBA and NHL action on offer. A total of 13 games are taking place across those two leagues—7 on the hardwood and 6 on the ice. As for the late afternoon football schedule, it includes Aaron Rodgers’ return for Green Bay.
Let’s take a look at where the public money has gone so far on Sunday.
NFL: Green Bay Packers -3 over Seattle Seahawks
Rodgers is back from his one-week Covid-19 hiatus, so it only makes sense that the public is putting its faith in Green Bay. The Packers are being backed by 71 percent of the money and 67 percent of the bets to cover the -3 spread. On the -160 money line, Green Bay is drawing 64 percent of the handle and 62 percent of the wagers to pick up an outright win.
