NFL Week 13: Philadelphia Eagles at Green Bay Packers odds, picks and predictions
Both teams squaring off at Lambeau Field this Sunday will have a lot to play for, as the Green Bay Packers host the Philadelphia Eagles. The Packers have their sights set on the overall number one seed in the NFL NFC, while the Eagles still have a fighting chance of winning the NFL NFC East.
The Eagles (3-7-1) just played on Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks, but they couldn't muster enough offense to remain competitive. Philadelphia fell to Seattle 23-17, but the margin of defeat could have been larger. A miraculous touchdown catch by Eagles TE Richard Rodgers kept the score close.
The Packers (8-3) clobbered the Chicago Bears last Sunday night. Green Bay took a sizable 41-10 lead in the first three quarters. But the Bears tacked on points in the final frame to make the final score 41-25. WR Davante Adams continued his incredible NFL season by catching another touchdown pass last week.
