A proven simulation model that runs 10,000 iterations per game projects the Under 47 points, hitting in 56% of simulations. The Under has cashed in three of the last four head-to-head matchups, three of Carolina's last five games, and each of Green Bay's last four games. The Packers' offense averages 20.6 points per game, tied for 24th in the league. The model also indicates one side of the spread hits in well over 60% of simulations.
