I’m rolling with Washington tonight, and it comes down to one thing: the Packers’ offensive line is held together with duct tape and crossed fingers right now.
Green Bay has already ruled out RT Zach Tom and LG Aaron Banks is banged up, which means Jordan Love is staring at a long night behind a patchwork unit. That’s not the situation you want when you’re going up against a Washington front that just made the Giants look like they were playing with a Pop Warner blocking scheme.
Week 1 gave us a good preview: Washington ran for 220 yards at 6.9 a pop, Jayden Daniels looked poised, and their defense held New York to six points. Meanwhile, the Packers beat Detroit but needed just 47 plays to get there, and now they’re walking into this one without two of their best protectors. That’s a recipe for more three-and-outs and a lot less of those “Jordan Love has all day to throw” highlights.
It’s not that I don’t respect Green Bay’s defense they bottled up the Lions’ run game but if Washington keeps it even remotely close in the trenches, their offense has enough to steal this or at least hang around all four quarters. And with the hook at +3.5, I’ll happily ride the road dog.
Give me the Commanders plus the points. The Packers’ line problems tip this one in Washington’s favor, and if penalties don’t kill them like last week, they’ve got a real shot to win outright.
Redskins +3.5 (-128)
