I know the Packers are garbage right now. I know the Skins are playing well, with confidence, and at home.

But digging deeper, I think Rodgers can disect this team if the beat up OLine can just give him a little extra time.

WAS is...

28th overall in defense.
25th overall in pass defense.
Tied with 3 others at 14th in sacks.

This all against 6 games against the NFC East.

If GB is gonna win a game on the road in the playoffs, this Redskin team might be the only team they can beat.

Plus you get one of the top QBs in the league on your side.

Think Im gonna flip flop...

I believe GB dumped the last game so they could go to Wash instead of home against Seattle.


I also believe GB will beat Wash and then lose to Carolina.


I guess they figured one playoff win was better than none.

GB didn't dump the last game to play Washington because if they would of won they would of hosted MN again. I think there OL is so banged up and lack of a playmaker at WR is why they are so bad right now. IMO Washington beats them.

Green Bay's problems began when they lost Jordy Nelson for the season; He was one of the NFL's top receivers and the real "go-to man" for Aaron Rodgers.
The other injuries the Packers had to deal with were crucial but no different than all the other NFL teams.

Packers thought Davant Adams would step up, but he has been a bum no factor. Packers are a dysfunctional mess right now, but still might beat Washington on playoff experience alone.

Sad for Green Bay fans because they have one of the best QB's in the NFL (a future Hall of Fame Member) but you would never know-it watching them play as a team.

Absolutely. The OL is a mess.

And the receivers are having a hard time getting separation.

This is the perfect defense for GB to play right now. They are average at best at rushing the QB. And their defense sucks in general. And its not like Washington had the toughest schedule this year. They were bad against some bad teams.

If GB was playing against ANY other team in the playoffs on the road this week, I would pick them to lose. Even against HOU who I have ranked as the lowest overall team in the playoffs. I know that may not make sense, but sometimes its about match-ups. And GB would not match up well with HOU today. HOU has a pass rush that would give Rodgers fits. Washington doesnt have that.

I don't think GBs offense can get going. I will almost certainly be taking Washington, with confidence

I dont think Washington beat a team with a winning record all year.

Correct. Washington did not beat one team with a winning record this year. The best team they beat was Buffalo who was 8-8.

Losses against teams with winning records:

Jets 34-20
Patriots 27-10
Panthers 44-16

Thats an average score of 35-15. Ouch.

Their other 4 losses were to teams that finished no better than 7-9.

Just not a game there's much value in taking on either side

Let's face it. In the NFL playoffs, there is not much, if any value to be found anywhere.

We like to gamble. Just do your research. Pick the sides you like. Let the chips fall where they may.

there's definitely value on skins. gb/pitt/dall are the three most popular teams in the league, there is always some "value" fading them, or a tax for taking them

I did the same this evening before finally settling for a KC/Seahawks double. I do favor GB and the deciding factor is at QB I can't bring myself to pick Cousins over Rogers.

Great point made here. The big games are not Usually the best ones to bet or bet heavy anyway...
This GB/Skin game seems a little tricky, reasonably either team cud not shockingly win.
With the playoffs however, you want to be Hot or on a roll going into the playoffs to make a run at the SuperBowl.
Confidence in anything is a Very Powerful Thing to have!!!
Skins Are HOT. Now GB is certainly far from Hot at the moment... Can they just turn it on?
A big factor i believe is come playoff time, can you run the ball? That gives clock control and is much needed to sustain drives...
That gives a Hot Skins team going in, who can Run better than GB, thus do many things better.
So, i feel its just Wash or nothing for a side bet in this game. Normal size bet for me so far...
Skins 27-20 with the Over hitting...
Enjoy it any way it goes!!! Eat mad HoTT WinGs!!!!
Good Luck
