PODCAST: Public money on Packers will overwhelm sharp play on Bears, oddsmaker says

A 7-point underdog on advanced lines offered last week in Las Vegas, the Bears have drawn money from professional bettors ahead of their Week 15 trip to Green Bay. Late in the week, the point spread sits between Packers -4 and -4.5 on oddsboards.

The Bears have found some late-season momentum, winning three games in a row and four of their last five. Most recently, they handled the Cowboys by a 31-24 count as 3-point home underdogs last Thursday (Chicago is still the NFL’s worst bet, with a 4-9 record against the spread). The Packers, meanwhile, are coming off an uninspired 20-15 win as 13-point home chalk over the Redskins.
