· GB -1.5 · O/U 36.5

The read

Both clubs are currently outside the playoff picture, which turns an ordinary date on the schedule into an early four-pointer neither can afford to drop. Momentum cuts both ways: ARI arrive coming off a loss, GB on a 1-game win streak.

Keys to the game

Bottom line: we project 21–23, a 2-point Packers win, and we're holding that at medium confidence.

Preseason game

In the preseason a roster is in flux: these are 90-man camp rosters that get cut to 53, and the depth chart behind them describes the season rather than tonight. So rosters and projected lineups are held for the regular season and the playoffs. What is settled is who each club took in April, in pick order.
