I’m thinking that’ll be the case. The Packers have been buoyed by their swarming defense, which has done a tremendous job of creating pressure on opposing passers and forcing them into mistakes. Carson Wentz hasn’t been as impressive as we’ve seen in seasons past, which may not bode well for the Eagles.
And even though the Packers offense hasn’t been as dynamic, especially in the passing department, they’re still finding ways to put points on the board. The duo of Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams has carried the ground game, taking the pressure off Aaron Rodgers to supply all of Green Bay’s points.
Between another well-balanced offensive effort and an excellent pass rush, the Packers should have enough to stay undefeated. It won’t be easy against a team like Philadelphia, but we’ve already seen that they’re capable of being toppled on any given week.
Prediction: Packers win 23-20
