We are going to lose. Nothing else to say. Put Love in after this game. Please throw the towel in.

Eagles lost 2 weeks ago and could’ve lost to the Colts - we play them at a perfect time and have almost nothing to lose (if we happen to win out I suppose an outside shot of a wild card is on the mega parlay line).

They play next week vs the Titans so it’s not much of a trap game - and it’s SNF so expect it’ll be raucous.

I’ll go on a limb and say Packers lose by 4 but have a shot to win as we’ve had so many times.

Jalen Hurts is much improved from the last time they played, when he was running all over with nobody to throw to.
The Eagles can be run on, although they just signed Suh and Linval Joseph so that might change. I don't like the matchup -- the Eagles offense is a bad match for GB even if Goedert is out.
Feels like a 31-17 loss to me, but it's been such a weird year who knows. GB has talent but they haven't played up to it.

Philly seems a lot like Dallas to me. If Packers can protect Rodgers and run the ball, I think they can hang in this one. Defense will have to play a lot of zone or Hurts will run for 100+yards.

Philly is at home. Packers lose another one.

I think the Packers need to fly up some ayahuasca. If Rodgers is "enlightened" aka high, maybe he will stand tall in the pocket and not shrivel like an old man reaching for his blanket when the pocket starts to shrink.

In the real world, at a difficult place to win, they have ZERO chance. It is like the whole team plays to not make mistakes and by doing so plays slow and mechanical and hinders the physical abilites of their players.

Not much reason to be optiistic. My only hope for this game is that somehow Doubs makes it back and we get to see our dynamic duo of the future on the field together for once.

I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff comfort me.

Zero chance is yours truly quitting burger flipping, moving to Hollywood, making it big as a screenwriter/lyricist, and ending up wooing Jennifer Lawrence.

The Packers actually do have a chance, even if the odds are against them. Any given Sunday.

The Redcoats marched to the City of Racist Italians and gave the Balding Eagles and their racist Italian fans a taste of the humble pie - winning me $415 along the way, which I subsequently pissed away at the poker tables. The recipe of that pie?

Pound the rock, milk the clock, keep Hurts on the bench and in the well. Doesn’t hurt to force a tons and turnovers. The QB also needs to manage the game efficiently, as German Bert Favor, Taylor “Swift” Heinicke did.

That being said, I picked the Balding Eagles to win by more than 7 in my unwise $20 8-teams parlay.

OK. After enduring the never ending dumpster fire of a season that continues to dick punch all of us irrationally optimistic Packer fans, Jesus H. Christ has finally spoken to me. It wasn't about repenting, or going to church or not choking hookers.
He spoke unto me thus:

The Packers are going to kick the shit out the Eagles.

Hard to believe, but I for one believe! Bet appropriately!
