Both quarterbacks are not at full strength, and there are several other factors that could impact the offenses in this matchup. Jalen Hurts has been in concussion protocol this week, resulting in significant missed practice time. Meanwhile, Jordan Love has sustained another injury, this time to his elbow. Both teams are likely to lean on their defenses, which have shown notable improvement since Week 6. The Eagles' defense ranks first in total EPA, while the Packers sit at third.
This game will hinge on how effectively each team defends against the run. I anticipate both teams will employ a run-heavy offense to control the pace of the game. While the Eagles boast the second-ranked rushing offense this season, Green Bay counters by allowing only 99.4 yards per game on a 4.4 yards per carry average.
Historically, these teams have been trending towards the Under; the Eagles are 6-3 to the Under at home, and the Packers have a 5-2-1 Under record in their last eight games outside the NFC South. My projections have the total score for this game in the range of 42-45 points, with a predicted outcome of 23-20 in favor of the Packers.
