00:00They're giving us the Washington Commanders on the road against the Green Bay Packers.

00:04As it sits down, a three-and-a-half point favorite for the Packers,

00:07and a total, let's list it at 48-and-a-half at most outlets.

00:10You saw week number one, Washington with a double-digit victory over the New York Giants,

00:14and then the Green Bay Packers at home, a double-digit victory over the hated division rivals,

00:19the Detroit Lions.

00:21Home field advantage in Green Bay.

00:22What are we thinking about that three-and-a-half point spread as a favorite towards Green Bay?

00:27Well, it's interesting.

00:28And you're right, because both these teams had double-digit wins, right, in game one.

00:33But let's be honest here, right?

00:36I mean, beating Detroit the way they beat Detroit is way more impressive for Green Bay

00:42than Washington beating the Giants the way they did,

00:46which didn't particularly look great offensively like maybe everyone thought they were going to be.

00:51But, I mean, Green Bay looked like they were in mid-season form.

00:55Jordan Love was just ripped apart, that defense, early on in that game.

01:02He was hitting receivers all over the place.

01:05The defense was really, really good against some of the big explosive guys on the Lions offense.

01:11So, the commanders were workmen-like.

01:13Like, they did what they were supposed to do, and sometimes I don't think we'd look at that

01:17and give it enough credit.

01:18But on a short week here, I don't know.

01:21I think you've got to give the advantage to Jordan Love and the offense of Green Bay.

01:27You know, Parsons played sparingly.

01:29You know, how much more will we see him this week?

01:32I kind of like the Packers at home to get it done on a short week.
