NFL Week 11 Predictions: Best Picks Against the Spread

Green Bay Packers


Opponent: at Washington Redskins


Line: GB (+2.5)


It's hard to trust the Packers. They're 1-3 on the road, the defense just gave up 47 points to the Titans (and it probably could have been 65 if Tennessee didn't let its foot off the gas around halftime), the wide receivers struggle to create separation, and Mike McCarthy basically benched Ty Montgomery, someone who had provided a unique spark to the offense, for James Starks, an unexciting option coming off an injury, last week. But for whatever reason, the Pack tend to play better in the national spotlight--they're last two wins have come on Sunday Night Football and Thursday Night Football--and this game is on Sunday Night Football. Also, I trust Aaron Rodgers getting 2.5 points more than I trust Kirk Cousins. (Getty)
