Packers vs Browns Picks - Preseason Week 1
With the news that Jordan Love will play in the preseason opener, the Packers moneyline is a value play at +155 odds. He'll likely only take the field for a series or two, but after that Green Bay will let sophomore Sean Clifford and rookie Michael Pratt show off their arms.
The Packers finished last season 5-3 ATS as a road underdog, and I like that to continue this preseason.
Deshaun Watson will sit Saturday's contest out, so some combination of Jameis Winston, Tyler Huntley and Dorian Thompson-Robinson will take the field. However, the Browns have covered the spread in just one of their last four home preseason games. Those quarterbacks also have a propensity to turn the football over, and with the Packers aggressive defensive scheme, that will prove to be a recipe for disaster.
