5* NFL BEST BET Pre-Season
(NFL) Cleveland vs. Green Bay,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -105.00 Cleveland (Away)
Result: Loss
Cleveland goes with RG 3, Josh McCown, and Austin Davis as their QB rotation here at home. We always like playing NFL teams in the Preseason with new head coaches. GB lost WR Jordy Nelson for the season with a torn ACL. When teams lose key pieces of their team to a preseason injury, the natural reaction is to put an even heavier emphasis on getting out of the preseason and limiting their starters and injuries. Nelson will likely not play at all in this game, and Packers head coach Mike McCarthy was all set to start his third-string quarterback in the Hall of Fame Game (along with a number of other younger players fighting to make the team) while having health as is only priority. New head coaches tend to win at a higher rate in the Preseason as they are looking to build winning and team confidence.
