The Green Bay Packers have one of the best offenses in the NFL averaging 40.6 points per game and has covered the number in four of the last five. In addition, the Packers have won nine of their last 10 straight up and are 7-0 SU over their last seven games at home. This should be another high-scoring game with the OVER as a solid choice, but the play here is Green Bay, as the Packers will take advantage of a poor Atlanta defensive secondary. Final Score Prediction, Green Bay Packers win 41-27
