Aaron Rodgers has overcome a lot of obstacles in his career, and still plays with a chip on his shoulder from falling to No. 24 in the 2005 NFL draft.

He'll have some more motivation next Sunday at the Los Angeles Rams, courtesy of Las Vegas oddmakers.

The SuperBook at the Westgate Las Vegas opened the Green Bay Packers as 8.5-point underdogs in Week 8.

Pick the Rams, we have no chance.

I was expecting more of a spread. Wonder how that changes by game time

Pack will hand the Rams their first L. I think Nerd was first with this prediction so I am not alone; recognizing the Packers often play up or down to their opponents.

I think this is a good thing. Provide a little extra motivation coming out of the bye week.

What more motivation do they need other then wanting to at least have a chance at winning the division.
They need to WAKE UP!!!

Well, we were 9.5 point favorites over the 49er's at home and barely won.
That tells me something that I don't want to envision.
