Can the Washington Football Team upset the Green Bay Packers in Week 7 of the NFL season?
The odds are against Washington pulling off an upset win at Lambeau Field on Sunday. First, Washington’s defense has struggled all season and now has the pleasure of facing Aaron Rodgers, Davante Adams and Aaron Jones.
Expecting Washington’s defense to limit Rodgers and the Packers on Sunday is a tall order, but the team does have past success against the exceptional Rodgers.
So, who do the experts have in this game?
According to NFL Pickwatch, 99% of the expert pickers are going with the Packers. Washington faced similar odds against the Chiefs last week and actually led at halftime.
Green Bay opened the week as a 9.5-point favorite over Washington and, as of Sunday morning, are now 8.5-point favorites, per Tipico Sportsbook.
Washington is 1-5 against the spread this season. Can Washington cover the spread in Week 7? It certainly won’t be easy against a red-hot Green Bay team at home.
