Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will face the Philadelphia Eagles for the first time as a starting quarterback on Friday, but this isn’t his first time on the field against Philadelphia. Love replaced Aaron Rodgers in 2022 after the future Hall of Fame quarterback injured his ribs. Love was stellar in relief, completing 6-of-9 passes for 113 yards and a touchdown as he showed the ability to one day become a starting quarterback. On the other side, Jalen Hurts had a dominant dual-threat performance with 153 passing yards and two touchdowns while rushing for 157 yards in the 40-33 victory for the Eagles.
Kickoff from Neo Quimica Arena in Sao Paolo is set for 8:15 p.m. ET. The Eagles are 2.5-point favorites in the latest Eagles vs. Packers odds, while the over/under for total points is 49.5.

Why the Eagles can cover
The Eagles were one of the best teams in the NFL through 12 weeks last season as they started 10-1 behind a dominant offensive effort. Philadelphia averaged 28.2 points per game over that span and scored at least 25 points in eight of those contests. Then, results drastically changed as the Eagles lost five of their final six games of the regular season before a 23-point loss to the Buccaneers in the NFC Wild Card Round. The Eagles made significant changes to their coaching staff and hired Kellen Moore as offensive coordinator and Vic Fangio as defensive coordinator, two of the most respected coordinators in the NFL.
The image of how last season ended tainted how great Philadelphia was over the first two-thirds of the season. Outside of coordinators, they added playmakers on offense and defense, including running back Saquon Barkley, linebacker Devin White and defensive end Bryce Huff. Jalen Hurts enters his fourth season as a starting quarterback, so that experience is a valuable advantage over Jordan Love in his second season as a starter, as the Eagles look to remind the world how they started 10-1 last season.

Why the Packers can cover
Green Bay started rolling offensively at the end of last season, ranking third in success rate from Weeks 10 to 18. Quarterback Jordan Love threw for at least 215 yards in 12 consecutive games prior to a narrow loss to San Francisco in the NFC Divisional Round. The Packers went 8-4 against the spread as underdogs last season, and Love will face an inexperienced Philadelphia secondary.
The Packers also have a new workhorse running back in Josh Jacobs, who has proven himself as one of the best backs in the league in recent seasons. Philadelphia lost five of its final six games last season, getting blown out by Tampa Bay in the playoffs. The Eagles had a losing record against the spread (7-9-2) and were just 6-7-2 as favorites, while Green Bay covered in four of its final five games and is 12-6 ATS in its last 18 games against NFC opponents.
