The expert knows the Packers have outpaced opponents in per-play metrics over the course of the first two preseason games. Green Bay has an offense that has playing time up for grabs on the outside, and the Packers have a talented backup quarterback in Jordan Love who could be critical in a preseason setting. Kansas City has been electric when its starters are on the field in the preseason, including a trio of touchdown passes for Patrick Mahomes. The Chiefs also finished strong defensively in 2021, and there is room for optimism.

Now, White has locked in another confident against the spread pick for Packers vs. Chiefs. We can tell you he's leaning over the total, but he knows a crucial X-factor makes one side of the spread a MUST-BACK! You ABSOLUTELY need to see what it is before locking in any picks of your own.
