The Packers can’t get revenge on the Browns, but they can get revenge on Joe Flacco. The Packers have had two weeks to stew about a tie with the Cowboys and a loss to the Browns when Flacco was with them.
The Bengals’ weak offensive line permits the league’s second-highest pressure rate and Flacco is the least mobile quarterback in the NFL. He also hasn’t had much practice time with his new team having just joined the Bengals this week. Led by Micah Parsons, the Packers have an elite pass rush that can bury Flacco.
Green Bay has a top-10 offense and has turned the ball over only twice. Jordan Love has a multitude of good receiving options. Green Bay’s offensive line also gets back two of its better linemen with the return of LG Aaron Banks and RT Zach Tom.
Cincinnati ranks in the bottom-four in many defensive categories, including points, yards and passing yards.
So laying two touchdowns is justified in this case.
