Why the Eagles can cover

After winning the NFC in 2022 and starting the season 10-1 in 2023, Philadelphia looked like the clear cream of the crop in the conference, but the wheels fell off late in the season. The Eagles lost five of six to end the regular season and were blown out by the Buccaneers in the NFL playoffs, failing to cover the spread in their last seven games. However, they made significant additions to address weaknesses on both sides of the ball.

Superstar running back Saquon Barkley was signed during free agency to take pressure off Jalen Hurts. Meanwhile, the Eagles spent their first two picks in the 2024 NFL Draft on defensive backs after ranking 31st in the NFL in pass defense. Philadelphia has typically started quickly, winning its last six games in September and going 4-1-1 against the spread during that span. See who to back at SportsLine

Why the Packers can cover

These teams ended last season going in divergent directions, as Philadelphia lost six of its last seven games, including a 23-point defeat in the Wild Card Round. Meanwhile, Green Bay won four of its last five games, upset the Cowboys in Dallas in the Wild Card Round and held a fourth-quarter lead over the 49ers before succumbing in the Divisional Round. The Packers were the NFL’s youngest playoff team in 49 years, so there’s still plenty of room for improvement.

Love had a passer rating over 100 in eight of his last 10 games, and while he’ll face an Eagles defense with lots of new faces, it’s hard to forget how porous Philly was on that side of the ball in 2023. It ranked in the bottom three of the NFL in points allowed, passing yards allowed, passing TDs allowed, third-down defense and redzone scoring. Also, a new defensive coordinator means it will take time for everything to come together for the Eagles, so they may be better on defense later in the season than early in it. See who to back at SportsLine.
