Packers Spotlight

The Green Bay Packers have been on fire going 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games, and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games at home. At home really is where it’s been for Green Bay, winning 16 of their last 18 games there, and 5 straight vs Washington. Another interesting nugget is they play rejuvenated football after facing the Chicago Bears where they’ve gone 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games after facing the Bears.

Football Team Spotlight

Not much has been going on for Washington where they’ve gone 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games, and 1-5 ATS following a loss of 14 or more points. They’ve also been dreadful as underdogs of 7+ points, going 0-4-1 ATS in their last 5. It won’t be any easier this week for them either considering their defense has given up 422 YPG in their last 5 games. During that span, Green Bay’s defense has only given up 313 YPG.

Final Say

This seems like a no-brainer considering the form these two squads are in. Green Bay is hot, Washington is not, and Green Bay gets the major edge at the quarterback position, and they get the edge on the defensive side. Most importantly, Green Bay is winning the turnover battle where they own a +7 differential in their last 5 games, compared to Washington’s -3 differential. 

Pick: Green Bay Packers -8
