Green Bay Packers vs. Philadelphia Eagles Week 1 Odds, Time, and Prediction

The Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles start their 2024 NFL campaign in Brazil. The home ground of Brazilian soccer powerhouse Corinthians is the place where the Packers vs. Eagles Week 1 game will take place.

Even though it’s winter down there in Brazil, perfect weather conditions are expected on September 6. That’s another one on a long list of reasons why we expect the Green Bay vs. Philadelphia game to be a real thriller.

All Eyes on Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love

It seems that there’s a consensus that the Green Bay Packers’ future relies heavily on their quarterback Jordan Love. If this guy steps up, we could see the Packers do much better than expected.

Now a 25-year-old, Love joined the Packers in 2020, but it wasn’t until Aaron Rodgers departed to New York that he got a starting spot. Last season, he started 17 games in the regular season, as well as two in the postseason.

He did alright, but he’s still far from being considered a suitable replacement for Rodgers. However, that might change this season if he steps up. He’ll have Christian Watson and other talented offensive players to assist him, so he should be able to up his game. But will it happen straight away in Week 1?

Big Changes in Philadelphia

We suspect the Philadelphia Eagles might need some time to adjust to the changes their roster had recently. The biggest loss in the offseason was Jason Kelce who retired. The center was the pillar of their offensive line last season.

Defensive tackle Fletcher Cox retired as well, leaving a hole that rookie Jordan Davis will try to fill. However, given that the Eagles vs. Packers is going to be his first NFL game ever, we might see him struggle.

Another major change in Philly is that they’ve got a new offensive coordinator. Kellen Moore joined the Eagles after spending a year as the OC with the Los Angeles Chargers, where he wasn’t too great at his job.

Green Bay Packers vs. Philadelphia Eagles Week 1 Predictions

Our prediction is that the Packers will win the Brazil game. They looked really good in the second portion of last season, so we expect to see them pick up where they left off. The Eagles are a fine team, but they’ve lost some key men to retirement, so they’ll probably need some time to adjust to changes.
