The next matchup sees the Green Bay Packers hosting the Baltimore Ravens at Lambeau Field.
The Ravens bounced back from a rough Week 1 loss with a tough-fought 13-12 victory over the Falcons. Starting QB Josh Johnson vastly improved on his Week 1 performance, completing all 11 passes, including a six-yard touchdown pass to RB Owen Wright.
Rookie QB Emory Jones also showed growth on his disastrous NFL debut. After fumbling away the game in his Week 1 appearance, Jones bounced back, completing seven of his nine attempts for 100 yards, including a 56-yard touchdown toss to WR Dayton Wade.
Both will get another chance to duke it out for the backup position in Week 3 as Baltimore looks to keep Lamar Jackson on the sideline this preseason.
While the passing attack finds its way, the rushing attack could improve.
Free agent addition Derrick Henry has yet to appear in the purple and black. It would’ve been nice to see the first-team All-Pro RB get some snaps, but given how demanding the Ravens’ rushing attack can be, preserving Henry’s health for the regular season makes sense.
The Packers, however, had a much different result in Week 2. After grabbing the win against Cleveland in the preseason debut, the wheels fell off against the Denver Broncos in Week 2.
While all the starters got to rest, it seemed like the backups were not ready to take on the Broncos. After a week of getting outworked in practice, Green Bay head coach Matt LaFleur was also not thrilled with the poor effort in the exhibition matchup.
The offense, led by Sean Clifford and rookie Michael Pratt, couldn’t convert anything, as the only points of the day came from a safety on Broncos QB Zach Wilson late in the third quarter.
Undrafted free agent WR Grant DuBose has shown to be a reliable presence, but the Packers will be looking for more production from everyone in the final week of the preseason.
Ravens at Packers Betting Preview
The Baltimore Ravens were up front about this week’s preseason game, saying they will follow the same path they have this preseason, which has meant not playing their starters. In those two games, the Ravens scored 26 points and allowed 28 points. That pattern looks likely to be fairly similar this week.
Green Bay has been less open, with Matt LaFleur telling reporters that “we’ll see.” The Packers scored 23 points in Week 1 and just two last week without Jordan Love and the starters.
