I think there's a bit of an overreaction to Philly's season finishing the way it did and GB's finishing the way it did.
Both teams have new D coordinators and Philly has a new o coordinator also but Kellen Moore im sure will be fine with all those weapons. Neither defense im so confident about but the boston college coach had to take over a team that was 28th on defense vs the run.
And now they have to face a very solid even without Kelco O-line and Saquon Barkley. Packers have some oline shuffling happening too but i think more important is they lost Aaron Jones and replaced him with Josh Jacobs who totally fell off last year after being previously very productive.
Eagles also have the more reliable WRs esp with their big red zone targets like Brown and Goedert. With both teams having young/new faces in the secondary I'll take the team with Brown Smith and Goedert to exploit that matchup.
Another thing to watch out for is GB's kicker had some yips last year for a stretch. The packers had very few road wins othet than Thanksgiving which is a game that they always do well in anyway. Their win streak at the end of the year wasn't that impressive to me as they played a lot of bad teams, Chicago and Minnesota were cooked, Carolina they barely won by 3 and Carolina sucks. they lost to the giants who the eagles beat other than the last game they sat Hurts and everyone else important (beat the Giants like 3 straight at least before that)
The Packers also lost to TB by 14. Who, i think people only remember the Eagles losing in the playoffs to TB but they actually beat the Bucs during the regular season.
After beating the one team they still own chicago the packers lost to Atlanta, LV and Denver on the road.
Packers are a trendy dog based on what I think is just remembering how impressed everyone was after this sucky team snuck into the playoffs squeaking by teams with no healthy QBs or anything to even play for and then they surprised everyone for 2 games.
There's no guarantee for either team that they will start this season like the last one ended. It's more fresh in the memory. I think the Eagles can get off to a good start and hold off a late Packers challenge.
I think they'll be up at halftime, Packers will come back in the 3rd quarter and they'll make a game of it... Maybe it will be another totally not fixed down to the wire job that just so happens to keep happening on TV and International games. Packers last year top in the NFL 3rd quarter points scored useful info for anyone who likes to bet at halftime.

eagles are more talented. packers are better coached. im just gonna take the under
So you think both teams have fixed their bad defenses with these new coordinators? I like the Over neither team is that stout defensively and both have capable offenses with good but not great QBs

Like the eagles also .. even though GB seems to be the trendy pick. Eagles have been consistently good last few years .. with the exception of the end of last year when hurts was probably injured worse than they said and he struggled. GB was like a shooting star towards the end of the season. GB may be the real deal .. but think I’m going with the eagles . Then again this is the National Fixed League so who knows. Good luck everyone.
