Personally, I think the Packers caught a break with a relatively easy schedule from Week 1 to Week 4. It’s the third-easiest schedule in the league and lines up well with the games that pass-rusher Micah Parsons could miss if he opens

the season up on the physically unable to perform list. Green Bay’s rest differential also evens out this season, so there’s nothing to complain about on that end.

The only major negative on the schedule is that the Packers will get the Lions in Week 7 after Detroit’s Week 6 bye, so they’ll be more rested than Green Bay for that matchup.

For what it’s worth, the Packers are currently favored in every game other than that Week 7 matchup against the Lions (Detroit by 1.5), Week 9 at New England (Patriots by 1.5), “Thanksgiving Eve” at Los Angeles (Rams by 3.5) and Week 16 at Chicago (Bears by 1.5).
