The No. 1 Green Bay Packers (5-0) are getting ready to host the No. 31 St. Louis Rams (0-4) for a Week 6 NFL showdown inside Lambeau Field on Sunday afternoon.
I'm referencing the Bleacher Report Power Rankings due to the 30-spot difference between the two teams representing a 15.5-point line in the betting odds.
Green Bay will be facing a dangerous team this week due to St. Louis coming off a bye week, looking for its first win of the 2011 season.
It's important to note that the Packers haven't covered a number of more than 14 points since at least the 1985-86 season, which is the farthest back I can go in researching the topic.
The franchise's last opportunity in this type of situation came on Oct. 3, 2010, coming away with a 28-26 win over the Bleacher Report - Sports & Society
