Gary Pearson's pick: Falcons +6.5
Editor's note: This pick was published prior to the line movement to Falcons +4.5
With the ninth-best defensive EPA per play, I expect the Falcons defense to contain an injury-impacted Packers offense that has been among the most disjointed. Jayden Reed and starting offensive tackle Zach Bako-Bewele’s injuries will make it even more challenging for Jordan Love and Co.

Brenden Schaeffer's pick: Bijan Robinson Over 40.5 receiving yards
In Week 1, he logged 90 receiving yards and is extremely dangerous after the catch. The Packers allowed 65 receiving yards to Breece Hall this past week, so the matchup could be favorable to RB receiving numbers.

LJ Blut's pick: Christian Watson anytime TD
His role in Green Bay’s passing attack gives him multiple opportunities to find the end zone, while his ability to win contested catches adds another dimension.
