The Washington Redskins are dangerous underdogs in Week 2<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Washington will look to bounce back from a disappointing 33-27 setback to the Philadelphia Eagles as four-point home favorites on Monday Night Football, while going OVER the betting total of 52.\u00a0 Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III threw a career-high 49 passes in that affair, and gained just 24 yards on the ground.\u00a0 \u201cYou move on from it,\u201d commented Griffin III afterwards.\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019ve got to be accountable.\u201d\u00a0 The other side of the football could be at full strength in Week 2, as outside linebacker Ryan Kerrigan and safety Brandon Meriweather are expected to play.\u00a0 Washington is 36-17 ATS as road underdogs of 3.5 to 7 points since 1992, which is important to consider when making your NFL expert picks Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Redskins led the NFL in averaging 169.3 rushing yards per game a season ago, but were held to just 74 against the Eagles.\u00a0 Washington second-year running back Alfred Morris carried the ball 12 times for 45 yards and a touchdown, as he\u2019ll need Griffin III to play at a higher level to be successful.<\/p>\n

Green Bay has won 20 of its last 21 regular-season games at Lambeau Field, as it heads home after a disappointing 34-28 setback to the San Francisco 49ers as five-point road underdogs.\u00a0 The Packers hold a 17-13-1 edge in the all-time series against the Redskins, including wins in four of the last five meetings.\u00a0 The franchise has won five of seven home openers under head coach Mike McCarthy, which can\u2019t be ignored when looking over the NFL betting lines.\u00a0 Green Bay is 4-1 ATS as home favorites of 3.5 to 7 points since 2011, with the UNDER going 3-2 in that situation.<\/p>\n

The Packers have averaged 31.8 points per game at home since 2009, which is just behind the New England Patriots (32.7) in that particular category.\u00a0 Green Bay has compiled a 9-5 record in September since 2009, which is tied for fifth with the Atlanta Falcons, New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles in that situation.\u00a0 Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has completed 99 of 151 passes for 1,331 yards and 13 touchdowns with a single interception in his last four regular-season games.<\/p>\n

Sports bettors will likely back the Redskins due to their 7-2 ATS mark in their last nine overall games.<\/p>\n
