Packers Host Eagles on Monday Night as Oddsmakers Shade Green Bay in Tight NFC Matchup

Philadelphia will be without center Cam Jurgens while integrating trade-deadline additions on defense in a game widely projected to be close and low scoring.

Overview

  • Kickoff is 8:15 p.m. ET at Lambeau Field with the game airing on ABC and ESPN, with an ESPN2 ManningCast also available.
  • Sportsbooks list Green Bay around -1.5 with a total near 45.5, and models such as Dimers give the Packers a slight edge and a roughly 23–21 projection.
  • The Eagles’ goal-line "Tush Push" is a prominent subplot after Green Bay ownership led an unsuccessful spring proposal to ban the play.
  • Philadelphia ruled out starting center Cam Jurgens and plans debuts for recent defensive additions including Jaelan Phillips, with Nolan Smith and Brandon Graham expected to return; CBS Philadelphia reports newly acquired corner Jaire Alexander is out.
  • Prop markets have centered on Jalen Hurts, with his anytime-touchdown price moving from about +140 to near even, reflecting expectations for quarterback rushing usage near the goal line.
