Cleveland @ Green Bay
Current Records: Cleveland 7-7; Green Bay 11-3
What to Know
The Cleveland Browns have enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they must head out on the road. They will take on the Green Bay Packers in a holiday battle at 4:30 p.m. ET Saturday at Lambeau Field. Green Bay will be strutting in after a win while the Browns will be stumbling in from a loss.
It was a hard-fought contest, but Cleveland had to settle for a 16-14 defeat against the Las Vegas Raiders last week. Despite the defeat, Cleveland got a solid performance out of RB Nick Chubb, who punched in one rushing touchdown.
Speaking of close games: it was a tight matchup that could have gone either way, but Green Bay made off with a 31-30 victory over the Baltimore Ravens last week. The score was all tied up at the break 14-14, but Green Bay was the better team in the second half. Their QB Aaron Rodgers did his thing and passed for three TDs and 268 yards on 31 attempts.
The Packers are now 11-3 while the Browns sit at 7-7. Green Bay has clinched a playoff berth as the current first seed in the NFC. Cleveland is still in the hunt for a spot in the playoffs, so these next three games are critical for them.
Two stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Cleveland comes into the game boasting the fourth fewest thrown interceptions in the NFL at seven. But Green Bay is even better: they enter the contest with only five thrown interceptions, which is the best in the league. So expect both teams to feel comfortable airing the ball out.
