Green Bay Packers vs Cleveland Browns NFL Picks, Odds & Predictions: The Green Bay Packers and the Cleveland Browns meet this afternoon for an inter-league tussle at Cleveland Browns Stadium in, of all places, Cleveland, Ohio. Kickoff between the two historic franchises is set for 1:00pm ET on FOX. NFL Picks at Sportsbetting.com are not giving the home Browns much of a chance as they are presently a +9 against the spread dog.

Packers Breakdown: The bye week apparantly did Green Bay a lot of good because they came out last weekend and Green Bay Packers vs Cleveland Browns NFL Picks, Odds & Predictionsdestroyed division rival Detroit 26-0 at Lambeau Field to improve to 3-2. The lopsided affair left the Packers in second place in the NFC North, but still 2.5 games back of the 6-0 Vikings. Despite the easy win, the 435 total yards, and the 23 first downs, the Pack still relived two problems that have dogged them all season...pass protection and penalites. Aaron Rodgers, who has been sacked a league high 25 times this season, was taken down five times by Detroit, and the team also tallied 13 penalities for 130 yards.

They may get away with that again today against the hapless Browns, but they cannot afford to do that against good teams and expect to win on a consistent basis.

Browns Breakdown: Cleveland fell to 1-5 last Sunday, losing at Pittsburgh 14-27. It was another sloppy affair for Eric Mangini's beleaguered bunch as they turned the ball over four times and racked up a pathetic 12 first downs and 197 total yards. Those numbers are on par with what the Browns have done all season as their 11.5 points and 239.8 yards per game averages would indicate. 

As far as the Cleveland offense is concerned, Mangini summed it up perfectly earlier this week.

"There have been times where we've moved the ball effectively," Mangini said. "We have to do a better job of not stopping ourselves."

Look for more Cleveland self and opponent inflicted stoppage today against a Packers defense that is allowing just 18.6 points and 298 yards per game on the season.
