NFL Preseason Game of the Year
(NFL) Packers (GB) vs. Broncos (DEN),
Point Spread: 7.50 | -125.00 Packers (GB) (Away)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: GREEN BAY PACKERS - ATS

1) I like the Green Bay Packers to cover the spread in this game against the Denver Broncos on Sunday, August 18th. The Broncos are off that high-scoring win last week but the Packers also got a big win and, in my opinion looked better defensively last week.

2) What has happened here is the Broncos are over-valued because of the QB battle going on in this one. While I do respect that, note that last week Denver was the only team to allow more than 23 points and win the game. The Vikings allowed 23 and won while the other 14 winning teams last week allowed an average of only 10.4 points per game! The Packers were one of those other 14 winning teams and allowed only 10 points!

3) With this line as high as a 7.5 in some spots and a solid 7 everywhere else, I am pulling the trigger early on this game and getting my selection out there on Wednesday the 14th. No matter which way the line moves here, this is a max bet for me and a true Best Bet with my highest rating. Remember Denver went 1-2 SU last preseason and the Packers went 2-1 SU last preaseason with the lone loss by 4 points. In fact, they have not lost by more than 7 points in the preseason since the 2021 preseason.

T.M. Prediction: 21-20 Broncos.

Line: +7.5
