That line is going to balloon that is absurdly low I don’t get it. Unless some reason Hurts won’t be healthy yet it’s the only thing I can fathom.

I always assumed the games that get higher ratings get played on Sunday. Nobody cares about the AFC South, so HOU will probably play on Sat. during the day. Then I think the later game will be either Rams or Bucs hosting with the other one going to Monday night.


The 3pm Saturday game and the noon Sunday game are the two least watched every year I'm sure. I think the Sunday afternoon game is actually the "best" slot in terms of TV viewership
Coach Drew: "Milwaukee has always been a team that I have been intrigued by. When we played them, they were a tough team for us to play. Although we did beat them all four times"

QB = Push?
RB = Philly (and I like Jacobs)
OL = Philly
WR = Philly (and it is not even close)
TE = Push (with Goedert dinged up maybe advantage Packers)
ST = Push (because McManus has been better than Elliott)
Edge = Philly
DTs = Philly (and it is not close)
LBs = Push (only because of Cooper)
CBs = Philly
Safeties = GB

Coaching = ??

If Hurts is rusty the game might remain close, for a while.

I look for Barkley to run wild in true Packer playoff defensive tradition and the Eagles to win by 10+.

No surprise two huge fan bases get late afternoon on Sunday.

Over/under "tush push" mentions? I say 4.

We haven't played a clean game all season - that said, Philly has had the same problem with a lot of time off.

Seems crazy to ask GB to play perfect for the first time. I think we get destroyed. Lafleur tells us it all starts with him. Off-season starts about 6:15 next Sunday.

I predict we get down early and wake up in the 4th and we come up short becase we do something stupid.

I think the odds of us winning next week increased because us winning and then going into DET and beating them the following week would be the most Lions thing ever.

A lot of pessimism in here and I get it. I think it's more than fair for us to be underdogs but I'm not going as far as some of you and saying no shot or that we get blown out

Our season did start in Brazil vs. Philly and sadly it will end vs. them.

This Packers team makes too many dumb decisions both from these young players and the coaching staff.

No Jaire against any of those WRs either. :banghead:

On to the 2025 offseason gents :cry:



Philly best RB best oline packers no pressure agsinst a bad minny team hurts will put a massive hurt on GB n barkley wont surprise me if he gets 200 plus yards rushing.
With love n MLF me personally not much confidence MLF again wont go brainfarting the entire game

If we had to go through Philly I'd much prefer it be here than later in the playoffs. They're a great team but it's not because they're some unstoppable juggernaut on offense. It's because of their defense and Barkley, and crazily enough we actually have a good run defense this season (7th in total yardage 4th in YPC, 6th in DVOA). Hurts is still a fraud so I feel this is gonna come down to how many points we can put up against an elite defense without (or with a hobbled) Watson. Like, we didn't even play that clean of a game against them in Week 1, yet we still gave their defense all it could handle (2nd worst performance of the season).

I imagine the Packers win this one with a repeat of their victory last year against the Cowboys, not enough heartbreak to lose at Philadelphia with no expectations.

We need Evan Williams back. Just too many holes in the defense.
