📊 Seahawks vs. Packers odds

• Date: Saturday, Aug. 23
• Kickoff: 4 p.m. ET
• Location: Lambeau Field (Green Bay, Wis.)
• How to watch: ABC

🔮 Seahawks vs. Packers prediction: Seahawks +3

Here's a sneak peek at why Isaiah Sirois believes the Seahawks will cover the spread:

"Even with Jalen Milroe under center, we like our chances with this Seahawks squad, especially against the Packers. Jordan Love hasn't taken the field since the opening week of the preseason due to injury, leaving the Packers with Malik Willis, Sean Clifford, and Taylor Elgersma."

📊 Jaguars vs. Dolphins odds

• Date: Saturday, Aug. 23
• Kickoff: 7 p.m. ET
• Location: Hard Rock Stadium (Miami)
• How to watch: NFL Network

🔮 Jaguars vs. Dolphins prediction: Dolphins -6

Here's a sneak peek at why Matt Jacob believes the Dolphins will win and cover the spread:

"No doubt, this is a hefty point spread for a preseason game. But if there’s one thing we know about the Miami Dolphins it’s that when they win preseason games, they tend to win them convincingly."

📊 Bills vs. Buccaneers odds

• Date: Saturday, Aug. 23
• Kickoff: 7 p.m. ET
• Location: Raymond James Stadium (Tampa, Fla.)
• How to watch: FOX

🔮 Bills vs. Buccaneers prediction: Buccaneers +2.5

Here's a sneak peek at why Phil Wood believes the Buccaneers will cover the spread:

"The Buccaneers aren’t playing their starters, but that's been the case at a lot of key positions this preseason, and they’re still 2-0. The offense is averaging 23 points per game, while the defense has given up just 21 total."

📊 Chargers vs. 49ers odds

• Date: Saturday, Aug. 23
• Kickoff: 8:30 p.m. ET
• Location: Levi's Stadium (Santa Clara, Calif.)
• How to watch: NFL+

🔮 Chargers vs. 49ers prediction: Chargers -1.5

Here's a sneak peek at why Isaiah Sirois believes the Chargers will cover the spread:

"The Chargers aren’t expected to deploy their starters, so we’re likely going to see a healthy amount of Trey Lance. That may be good in this spot. Lance - who was drafted by the 49ers in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft - now gets a chance to somewhat settle the score."

📊 Raiders vs. Cardinals odds

• Date: Saturday, Aug. 23
• Kickoff: 10 p.m. ET
• Location: State Farm Stadium (Glendale, Ariz.)
• How to watch: NFL Network

🔮 Raiders vs. Cardinals prediction: Cardinals +2.5

Here's a sneak peek at why Matt Jacob believes the Cardinals will cover the spread:

"This pick isn’t about a strong belief in Arizona’s backups - who will be on the field for 60 minutes in this contest - as much as it’s a lack of faith in Las Vegas’ ability to win a preseason game. Because it hasn’t happened in more than two calendar years."
