Green Bay were perhaps the single most impressive team of Week 1 and look an excellent bet to cover once again.

It’s hard to overstate how they dismantled the Lions, a team that had dominated them in two meetings last year. While the final score was 27-13, Detroit didn’t score their touchdown until less than a minute remain in the fourth quarter.

The Packers defensive line was particularly impressive, sacking Jared Goff fourt times, and allowing just 46 yards on the ground.

Green Bay head coach Matt LaFleur is particularly good at having his team prepared early in the season, as the Packers have gone 16-3 against the number in the first three weeks of the season with him as head coach.

Washington shape as a potentially tougher test, as they were a playoff team and weren’t troubled when beating the Giants 21-6 in Week 1. The Commanders were sloppy at times though – allowing 12 penalties – which is a worrying sign coming into a night game at Lambeau Field.

With the addition of Micah Parsons, the Packers looks the real deal. Back them to continue their momentum here.

Josh Jacobs got 19 of the 21 running back carries last week so I have no hesitation in suggesting he will be the workhorse once again.

Expecting Washington to need to rely on their passing game here so expect Jayden Daniels to be throwing early and often.

Value Bet

Tucker Kraft

First Touchdown

Tight End Kraft continues to be a popular target in the redzone for Jordan Love, particularly at home. He has scored the first touchdown in three of the Packers last six games at Lambeau, including last week against Detroit.
