Before tuning into the Packers vs Rams matchup, it’s crucial to consider the insights from SportsLine’s advanced computer model. This model, which runs simulations of every NFL game 10,000 times, has shown impressive results, accumulating over $7,000 in profit for $100 bettors on its top-rated picks since its inception. As it enters Week 5 of the 2024 season, the model boasts an outstanding record of 188-131 on its top-rated picks dating back to the 2017 season and has achieved a remarkable 42-23 record on these betting picks since Week 7 of 2022.
For this particular matchup, the model favors Green Bay to cover the spread while playing on the road. Stafford will be without his key targets, Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, and Kyren Williams faces a Packers rush defense that ranks 11th in the league, allowing an average of just 109.3 yards per game on the ground.
On the other side, Green Bay will confront the league’s 31st-ranked defense, coming off a stellar performance from Love, who threw for 389 yards and four touchdowns in his first outing since Week 1, despite also tossing three interceptions. However, he is anticipated to deliver a more polished performance in Week 5 against a more vulnerable defense. The model predicts Green Bay will cover as the favorite in more than 50% of its simulations.
