5. Teddy Bridgewater Throws 3 Interceptions

Teddy Bridgewater Minnesota Vikings — It’s hard enough to figure out the Packers' pass rush, let alone when you are a rookie quarterback. Bridgewater struggled against the Bears’ defense in his last game, and the Packers’ defense operates at a much higher level. Look for the rookie to be forced into mistakes all game, including three picks.

Aaron Rodgers Green Bay Packers — Rodgers is the best in the NFL, and the cocky quarterback shows no self control on the field when it comes to laughing in the face of his opponents. When you are destroying teams the way he has been, it may be your right to be cocky. Since players are now talking about the on-field laughter, look for plenty of TV time for the laughing Rodgers as he destroys another overmatched team.

Green Bay Packers — This game is a mismatch no matter where it’s being played, and the Packers will make TCF Bank Stadium feel like Lambeau Field West. Don’t expect any leaps into the stands, but do expect plenty of points from the high-flying Packers.
