Packers vs. Ravens Set-Up<br />
</h2>
<p>
Green Bay opened this exhibition season, its first under new Coach LaFleur, with a 28-26 victory over Houston last Thursday. The Packers began the scoring with a special-teams touchdown in the first quarter, pushed their lead to 28-10 in the third quarter, then held on from there. They also squeaked out the cover as one-point favorites.
</p>
<p>
On the night Green Bay actually got out-gained by the Texans 412-237 and lost time of possession by a 32/28 split. But the Packers won the turnover battle 4-1, basically resulting in a plus-14 point differential.
</p>
<p>
Back-up quarterbacks <a href="http://www.nfl.com/player/deshonekizer/2557983/profile&quot; title="Deshone Kizer NFL Profile">DeShone Kizer</a> and Tim Boyle combined to go 11/18 for 142 yards and three touchdowns, against zero interceptions, as Aaron Rodgers watched from the sidelines.
</p>
<p>
Rodgers might play a series or two Thursday night, but it seems likely Kizer and Boyle will continue their battle for the No. 2 spot on the depth chart.
</p>
<p>
Baltimore, meanwhile, opened its exhibition season with a 29-0 victory over Jacksonville last Thursday. Starting QB <a href="http://www.nfl.com/player/lamarjackson/2560757/profile&quot; title="Lamar Jackson NFL Profile ">Lamar Jackson</a> directed the Ravens to 10 first-quarter points on three drives, then sat the rest of the night. Baltimore then pulled away from there and covered easily as a favorite of 3.5 points.
</p>
<p>
On the night the Ravens out-gained the Jaguars 288-112, out-rushed Jacksonville 125-68, won first downs 18-8 and won the turnover battle 2-1. Also, back-up quarterbacks Trace McSorley and Joe Callahan – a former Packer -combined to hit on 12/26 throws for 115 yards and one pick.
</p>
<p>
Jackson might well play a full quarter again Thursday night, and that would probably be worth at least seven points, against a Green Bay defense that gave up over 400 yards to a Houston offense led by Joe Webb last week.
</p>
<p>
These teams met most recently back in November of 2017, a 23-0 Ravens victory at Lambeau Field. Joe Flacco quarterbacked Baltimore that day, while Brett Hundley played in place of an injured Rodgers.
