IT was slightly more comfortable, in the end, than even those of us who backed Green Bay would have predicted, but the Packers put themselves in a good position for a playoff place with this dominant victory over the New York Giants.
Green Bay gained more than 500 yards in the game, with Aaron Rogers throwing for three touchdowns on his return from injury. Defensively, as was predicted, the Packers put real pressure on Eli Manning as he tried to lead the Giants back from a deficit, forcing 4 interceptions and 6 turnovers in total.
The 28-point maragin of victory more than justified the decision to back the Packers at 11/17.
With the win, I'm now 6/7 (86%) on the blog this week. A full weekly recap will be available on Tuesday.
SUGGESTION:
I earlier recommended to back the Packers at 37/1 to win the Superbowl on Betfair, as excellent trading material. I am now happy to suggest trading out, with the Packers available to lay at 19/1. (I personally made what ultimately was a mistake and traded out at 26/1 as the game was being played). This tip, although succesful, will not count in my weekly run down, as any profit may be deferred and left as a 'free bet' on the Packers to win the Superbowl, depending on particular personal tendencies in the market.
