The last time these two teams clashed was back in 2005, and on that day, Baltimore thrashed the Packers 48-3. However, the Ravens haven’t won in Lambeau Field since they were the Cleveland Browns back in 1992, and it was 1980 before that.

Team records:
Baltimore: 6-5 SU, 6-5 ATS
Green Bay: 7-4 SU, 6-4-1 ATS

Bookmaker.com oddsmakers have lined the Packers at (-3) -120 in MNF betting action; the ‘total’ has been set at 43.5.

Since opening up the season at 3-0 both SU and ATS, the Ravens have had a hard time gaining traction in their playoff push. However, a victory on the Frozen Tundra Monday night should spark what could amount to be a four-game winning streak when it’s said and done, because the Lions and Bears will be paying a visit to Baltimore in the two weeks to come.

Even though they won last week, HC John Harbaugh has to be concerned about the effort that his Ravens put forth against a banged up Pittsburgh team. The Steelers were without the services of both QBs Ben Roethlisberger and Charlie Batch, and had to rely on the arm of Dennis Dixon, making his first career NFL start. It took a field goal with less than two minutes to play in regulation to force overtime, and another K Billy Cundiff boot halfway through the extra frame just to escape with the SU victory. Baltimore was never in a position to cover the lofty nine-point NFL betting point spread.

Pop quiz, hot shot! Coming into Week 13, who owns the #1 defense in the NFL? Pittsburgh? Nope. Baltimore? Not even close. Minnesota? Think again. Denver? Not anymore. It’s the Green Bay Packers. The Pack is only allowing 281.5 yards per game this year, tops in the NFL, and they’re forcing turnovers at an alarming rate. On Thanksgiving Day, they forced five Detroit turnovers in a 34-12 route at Ford Field.

The offense hasn’t been too shabby either, as QB Aaron Rodgers eclipsed the 3,000-yard barrier last week. He’s pacing the #6 overall offense in the NFL at 382.0 yards per game. Just four weeks ago after losing at Tampa Bay, Green Bay was just 4-4 and was written off by many NFL handicappers. Since then, all HC Mike McCarthy’s team has done is go a perfect 3-0 SU and ATS to take a one-game lead on one of the final playoff spots in the NFC. The Packers aren’t out of the woods just yet though, as they still have to travel to Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Arizona before their regular season slate is said and done. This is the second to last game of the year for the hosts at Lambeau Field.
