0:00.0	Welcome in, everyone to your NFC bidding preview show.
0:14.6	We are sponsored by brought to you by BetMGM, the sports book, Born in Vegas.
0:19.3	I am Larry Hartstein filling in today for the great
0:22.4	counselor of cash Cia Najad. I have an amazing crew with me. Let's bring them in right now and get
0:28.2	right to it. I want to welcome in Claudia Bella Fato, R.J. White and Alex Selsnick, better known as
0:35.1	prop stars. And we're just going to get right into it. I'm going to start
0:38.6	with you, RJ, a man who has two big caches in the super contest. And you're going to be upstage this
0:44.9	year by somebody new that we brought on to sports line, Brady Cannon, who has won the super
0:49.5	contest. So that gives you something to shoot for. But RJ, we're going to talk about NFC teams that you like to go over their win total. What if I told you there's a team with a quarterback who just had surgery, a number one receiver who tore his ACL late in the year and won't be back to mid-October, two or three other receivers dealing with key injuries right at camp, and you're telling me they're going over?
1:14.0	I love the Packers, man.
1:15.7	They were fifth and yardage on both offense and defense last year.
1:18.6	The only notable loss in the offseason was Jaya Alexander.
1:22.3	The Green Bay teams that made the postseason the last two years were the two youngest of the last 45 years playoff teams.
1:28.6	This is a young roster that could still be improving, and the continuity of the coaching staff
1:33.0	only helps. Really like the addition to Jeff Halfley, a defensive coordinator last year.
1:36.9	It took a little bit of time to get adjusted to his scheme for the players that had been used
1:40.8	to the previous scheme, but I think they're really dialed in now, and that defense could be really good this year. The Green Bay only lost five other six divisional games last year, only one by more than three. Their only other losses were to Philly twice, beginning of the season, end of the season, in the playoffs. I think Detroit, Minnesota could take a step back with turnover on the coaching staff for one and quarterback for the other.
2:01.2	I think they're pretty up in the air.
2:02.9	What happens there?
2:04.0	And I think the Green Bay Packers are just really strong.
2:06.3	Love taking them over nine and a half wins on minus 120.
2:09.1	I think they could push to maybe be in the running for the number one scene.
