After many months of waiting, the NFL regular season is finally set to kick off this Sunday with a great offering of games.

One of the most intriguing games of the day will take place in Green Bay, as the Packers are set to play host to the Seahawks.

Seattle is one of the league's most intriguing teams this year. There is no doubt that they are loaded with talent, as they have superstar talent on both sides of the football (their defence is looking especially great this year, especially their D-line).

The Seahawks, however, have had their fair share of issues in the offseason. Richard Sherman was on the trading block at one point and the situation at running back seemingly changes with each passing day. The Seahawks have gotten off to a slow start the last number of years, so it will be interesting to see how they come out of the gate this year.

The Green Bay Packers, on the other hand, look loaded this season. Aaron Rodgers will have a multi-faceted attack that includes the likes of Jordy Nelson, Davante Adams and Ty Montgomery. The Packers were the hottest team in the NFL at the end of last season, and it will be interesting to see if they can build on their momentum.

Here are the odds for Sunday's game:

Seattle Seahawks, +3, -110
Green Bay Packers, -3, -110

Money Line

Seattle Seahawks, +140
Green Bay Packers, -160

Over/Under

Over 51 points, -110
Under 51 points, -110

I'll take the Packers to win at home and I'll give up the three points (-110).

The Hawks are notoriously slow starters and have had their share of issues in the offseason. I think that the Packers will win by at least a touchdown.
