The Green Bay Packers (3-3) face the Washington Commanders (2-4) in Week 7 on Sunday at FedExField. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Packers vs. Commanders odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
The Packers are on a 2-game losing skid with losses to the New York Giants (27-22) in Week 5 and the New York Jets (27-10) in Week 6, despite being 7.5- and 8.5-point favorites, respectively. QB Aaron Rodgers has gotten off to a slow start with 1,403 passing yards, 9 touchdowns and 3 interceptions in the first 6 weeks of the season.
The Commanders were able to snap a 4-game losing skid in Week 6 with a narrow 12-7 win over the Chicago Bears as 1-point favorites. QB Carson Wentz is expected to miss multiple weeks with a finger injury, so QB Taylor Heinicke is projected to start Sunday.

Packers at Commanders picks and predictions
Prediction
Packers 27, Commanders 17
Moneyline
PASS on the moneyline in this game, despite that the Packers should be able to end their losing skid on the road against the Commanders. However, the current odds for Green Bay (-220) are not worth the risk to take them straight up as you’ll net a minimal return.
Against the spread
Even with their recent struggles, PACKERS -4.5 (-108) is where I’m going in this game. I expect a heavy dose of RB Aaron Jones and RB AJ Dillon.
Green Bay is 7-1 ATS in the team’s last eight Week 7 games.
Over/Under
Both of these teams have struggled to score consistently, but I’m taking the OVER 41.5 (-108). Rodgers should be able to find a rhythm against a mediocre secondary and the run game should have success.
The Over is 5-0 in the last 5 games the Packers have played against a team with a losing record and the Over has hit in 5 of the last 8 meetings between the Packers and Commanders in Washington.
