The Packers are coming into this game with an 11-6 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They have lost 3 of their last 5 games and they are limping into these playoffs a bit as they have lost their last 2 straight games, losing on the road against the Vikings and at home against the Bears. That loss to the Bears was awful for them, not only because they lost at home, but also because they played some starters in that game and got a few injured. Jordan Love left that game with a hand injury which could really affect the way he throws in this game, and the team also lost their WR Christian Watson to a torn ACL which is a huge blow as he was the player who can stretch the opposing defense downfield. The Packers have still had a great run game with Josh Jacobs, but they are going to see one of the better run defenses in the league here. They are going up against an Eagles team that is 14-3 this season and they have been playing very well in their recent games. They have won their last 2 straight as well as 12 of their last 13 games and they even won their last 2 games with backup quarterbacks. Their only blemish in that span was a 36-33 loss to the Commanders on the road in the game Jalen Hurts left injured. Hurts is back though and this offense has a lot of weapons between the receivers and Barkley in the run game. The defense has also been great all season and they have not allowed 20 points or more in each of their last 2 as well as 5 of their last 6 games, including a 24-19 win in Baltimore. The Packers have been good at stopping the run recently, but they have not been great, and they have not faced a running back like Saquon Barkley in a while. The Eagles also beat the Packers by 5 points in a neutral location in the opening game of the season in Brasil, and the Packers were not able to stop Barkley in that game either. Now the Eagles actually have home advantage here, but the key in this game is the missing pieces in this Packers offense as they are going to have a much tougher time trying to crack this Eagles defense. The Eagles are going to cover the spread in this game.
