Packers Host Eagles | Ticket King Green Bay

Last week, the Chicago Bears stayed overnight in a Green Bay hotel. Somebody forgot to tell them they were supposed to play a football game while they were there. The final score was 55-13, including a lead of 42-0 at the half. It wasn’t really that close either. So now the Eagles come to town to play the Packers.

How long will Eddie Lacy’s success in the screen game last? Lacy has quickly become just as much of a threat in the passing game as he is running the ball. Lacy is making big plays in the screen game and one must wonder how long can this continue. Well, if he can keep doing this he is proving his worth as the screen game is basically a glorified running play. The question is, can they get Starks and Harris involved in it too?

Will the guards play? The Green Bay Packers have perhaps the best interior line in the league going right now in Josh Sitton, T.J. Lang and Corey Linsley. Problem is, Sitton and Lang played with special shoes last week due to foot injuries. We see no reason as to why they cant do it again. If not, Lane Taylor or possibly J.C. Tretter could get the start(s).

Have the Packers figured out the middle linebacker position? Clay Matthews has had a very ineffective season rushing the passer. The Packers have a deep pass rush on the outside with Datone Jones, Mike Daniels, Mike Neal, Julius Peppers, Nick Perry, and Jayrone Elliot. In other words Matthews talents are of better use somewhere else- inside linebacker. Matthews slid inside and he played awesome. If he can do that, this is game-changing league wide and may all of a sudden make the Packers the favorites.

Can a tight end please make a play? The Packers tight ends have not played well this season. One of them needs to start stepping up and making some consistent plays, or the Packers will be searching for a tight end in the offseason. Final Verdict: At the end of the day, Mark Sanchez will bestarting for the Eagles, not Nick Foles. Packers win this game 34-23.
