Writer’s Breakdown and Pick for the Packers vs Eagles Game

Packers Look to Make an Early Season Statement

Jacksonville extended Trevor Lawrence’s contract in the offseason, hoping to secure long-term success.

Last season, Lawrence completed 65.6% of his passes, totaling over 4,000 yards with 21 touchdowns and 14 interceptions, though he was sacked 35 times.

The team’s leading receiver, Calvin Ridley, has moved on, leaving Christian Kirk, Gabe Davis, and newcomer Brian Thomas Jr. as key targets, along with tight end Evan Engram.

The Packers have a new backup quarterback.

Former Patriots signal caller Mac Jones will sit in behind Lawrence for 2024.

Running back Travis Etienne is poised for a big season after rushing for over 1,000 yards and scoring 11 touchdowns last year, without losing a fumble.

The Packers will host their first home game in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns.

Eagles Seek to Continue Offensive Success

The Eagles were one of the NFL’s top offensive teams last season.

Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa started all 17 games, completing 388 passes for 4,624 yards and 29 touchdowns.

Tim Boyle and Skyler Thompson are the next two in line for Miami under center.

Tyreek Hill led the league in receiving yards with over 1,790 and scored 13 touchdowns, while Jaylen Waddle contributed with four touchdowns.

Miami’s running game was bolstered by Raheem Mostert and De’Von Achane, who combined for 1,800 yards and 26 touchdowns.

In Week Two, the Eagles will face the Buffalo Bills in a key divisional game on Thursday night.

The first road game of the season for the Philadelphia Eagles is in Week 3.

That will be on the road in Seattle.

They will finish September with another home game; against the Titans.

Final Betting NFL Pick: Eagles Top Packers in Miami

We predict the Philadelphia Eagles will win this game at home.

Miami’s offensive firepower should be too much for Jacksonville to handle.

The Packers could come away with a nice season, but it starts after the opener.

When we go to make our score prediction we see the Eagles 34-20 over the Packers.

Bet on the Eagles -3.5 over the Packers.

Enjoy the game and good luck with your NFL bets!

Eagles vs Packers 2019 NFL Week 4 Odds, Preview & Pick for Thursday Night

Previous Betting News

The Philadelphia Eagles aren’t looking anything like the Super Bowl favorite they were predicted to be entering the 2019 regular season while the Green Bay Packers have already surpassed their early season expectations, mostly because they’ve shut down the opposition in every game so far. With both NFC playoff hopefuls looking to get the confidence-boosting win in Week 4, let’s find out which team is offering the best value against their NFL odds in the online sportsbook right now.

Eagles vs Packers 2019 NFL Week 4 Odds, Preview & Pick for Thursday Night

When: Thursday, September 26, 2019 at 8:20 PM ET
Where: Lambeau Field, Green Bay, Wisconsin
TV: FOX
NFL Week 4 Odds: Green Bay -4.5 / Total: 45
Type of Stadium: Open

Why Bet On Philadelphia at +4.5?

The best reason to back Philly is because the Birds should have a healthy sense of desperation heading into this Week 4 matchup after dropping two straight following their uneven, season-opening win over Washington. The Birds looked mediocre at best in their 27-24 Week 3 loss to Detroit despite the fact that quarterback Carson Wentz passed for 259 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions. Wentz was sacked three times and the Eagles lost two of three fumbles in the humbling loss.

Why Bet On Green Bay at -4.5?

The best reasons to back the Packers are because they’re playing at home and playing defense like we haven’t seen out of a Green Bay team in ages. The NFC North title hopefuls are coming off a convincing 27-16 win over Denver last weekend even though Aaron Rodgers passed for a modest 235 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions. The Packers recorded an impressive six sacks of Broncos quarterback Joe Flacco while holding the former Ravens longtime starter to just 161 passing yards.

Expert Analysis and Prediction for Eagles vs Packers

Maybe it’s me, but after watching the Eagles fall to the Lions this past weekend, I’ve lost a lot of faith in the Birds heading into Week 4. Conversely, Green Bay has looked a lot better than I or most football expert – expected heading into the 2019 regular season. The Packers have shut down Chicago, Minnesota and Denver in three games this season while not giving up more than 16 points in any contest. Defense like that, combined with the play of future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers is going to makes the Packers extremely tough to beat this season.

While the road team in this rivalry has gone 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings, the Packers have won two straight and five of the last six meetings overall while going 5-1 ATS along the way. I’m going with Aaron Rodgers and the new-look Packers defense to get it done in this one and you should too!
