The Philadelphia Eagles have just ways to keep winning this season. Fans were concerned after a 2-2 start to the season. But how quickly the tables have turned as the team had reeled off 10 consecutive victories at one point in the season and tend the year as NFC East champions. But there is still some concern heading into this matchup. Eagles’ starting quarterback Jalen Hurts has been in concussion protocol for the last two weeks and his status remains in limbo.
The Green Bay Packers were one of the top teams in a loaded NFC North division. And while they did not end their season as champions they still enter the postseason as one of the more dangerous teams in the field. The Packers have one of the top defenses in the NFL, ranking 5th overall in the league allowing 314 yards per game. But they will have their hands full trying to slow down a loaded Eagles’ offense that features the likes of A.J. Brown and Saquon Barkley.
The oddsmakers are giving the Eagles the edge coming into this one. Philadelphia comes in as the slight favorites in this matchup by a close 3.5-point margin over Green Bay. Oddsmakers also believe that this matchup will be a high-scoring affair with the over/under marked at 46.5 points.
So whether you are rooting for a clear favorite or hoping for a miracle by the underdog, the most important thing to remember is that you must be in it to win it.
