Philadelphia Eagles vs. Green Bay Packers: 5 Bold predictions for Week 4
1. Rodgers throws for 400+ yards, 3+ touchdowns
Perhaps the most fascinating part about the Green Bay Packers hot start to the 2019 season is that the offense has not fully gotten rolling. And a big reason for that is quarterback Aaron Rodgers not fully hitting his stride just yet. The star signal-caller didn’t play in the preseason and it’s looked as if he’s getting his feet back under him through the first three games.
Rodgers’ Week 2 performance against Denver saw him throw for 235 yards on the day, which is actually his single-game high in the young season. Thus far, he’s averaging just 215.7 yards per game. And while he’s not thrown an interception, he has just four passing touchdowns on the year as well. He’s just not been playing like a superstar.
That’s about to change on Thursday Night Football, though. As mentioned when talking about Adams and Valdes-Scantling, the Eagles secondary is both lackluster and banged up right now. With the Packers strong offensive line and a depleted front seven for Philly as well, Rodgers will have time to pick the defense apart.
He’s going to finally hit his stride and have his first breakout game of the 2019 campaign. Rodgers is going to light Lambeau Field on fire in Week 4, throwing for over 400 yards and three-or-more touchdowns on the night in an emphatic Packers victory.
