It's an away game for the eagles. They are banged up, and have the 29th worst pass defence in the league. They are getting Jeffery back for this game, but I think Jackson is still going to be out. Packers taking a lot of momentum into home. .

I just realized I read it wrong. Even a banged up defense they still have talent to stop The packers . The packwers offense hasn't been as Explosive as it should be. Statement still stands though , if pack gets their run game going eagles are done
I'd be more concerned about their passing. Rodgers hasn't even approached 300 in the previous 3 weeks. They have played 3 teams that are good defending the run, so I wouldn't expect them to have great rushing stats. The passing stats are surprising though. Going up against one of the worst pass defense teams in the league so far might help that, and the saying about the run opens up the pass game goes both ways. One advantage Philly has though is they 100 percent need this game. That could result in them putting up some numbers, but it can just as easily result in them trying to do too much and make careless mistakes.
A lot here seem to think it will be 41 to 43 points, so why isn't anyone taking the under 47?
Me personally... I'm kind of liking the team total over 25.5 for greenbay. They have scored more points than their previous game in every game so far, 27 last week against denver, who you could easily argue has a better defence than the eagles. Greenbay also hasn't had to travel in 3 weeks. Besides comfort of home, that gives them a extra 2 practices a week which is probably why their scoring has gone up.

Liking my bet. Only need 2 fgs from greenbay.
For people on greenbay, I'm sure you're mad how conservative they got toward the end of the first and the whole second up to that 2 minute drill... the second time. I've never understood why coaching staffs completely ignore things that work out of the blue like that.
