00:00All right, so Friday night we've got the Packers and Eagles and maybe for a team that's supposed

00:08to be pretty good this season, more pressure on Philadelphia than very few teams in the

00:13NFL.

00:14Like they have got to win and come out strong because Jacob, they finished the season on

00:17such a down note.

00:18They are favorites in Brazil by three points.

00:23Now again, if you assume that they were playing in Philadelphia in game one, it would be probably

00:29four and a half or five points, but it's a neutral site game, total of 48 and a half.

00:35Feel like some points will probably come in this game because the NFL ain't going to Brazil

00:38to have a 13-10 game, I don't think, but another really tough game to call for me here.

00:43Do you have an opinion on this one?

00:45Yeah, this one's a tough one.

00:47I think my lean is again on the favorite at three points.

00:51I like the Eagles here.

00:53One thing that sticks out in my mind when I'm thinking about the Packers in this matchup,

00:56I love what Jordan Love did at the end of last year.

00:59Their receiving core looks really good.

01:01Their offense just generally looks rock solid and should test that Eagles defense, which

01:06you know, should be better under Vic Fangio, but often we see coordinator changes, especially

01:10on defense, take about a month of play before they kind of settle down.

01:15We saw that last year with the Broncos.

01:17They allowed 70 points to the Dolphins, and then after that point, their defense under

01:21Vance Joseph was much better.
