Philadelphia Eagles
Moneyline odds: +175 at Bovada Betting line: +4.5 at -111.11 Record (ATS): 1-2 (0-3)

Green Bay Packers
Moneyline odds: -200 at Bovada Betting line: -4.5 at -111.11 Record (ATS): 3-0 (3-0)

The Green Bay Packers are aiming at four straight wins as they welcome the struggling Philadelphia Eagles to Lambeau Field in Week 4 of the 2019 NFL season.

The Eagles have shot themselves in the foot two weeks in a row after winning their first game. They lost to the Detroit Lions 27-24 in their last game, where they dropped seven passes and had a late penalty on a blocked field goal negate great field position.

The Packers are off to a 3-0 start, but it is because of their defense rather than Aaron Rodgers and the offense. After three games they are giving up an average of only 11.7 ppg, and they have needed their defense as their attack has not clicked.

Something has got to give in this Thursday night game, as the Eagles have covered the spread in their last four Thursday night games and the Packers are 4-0-1 in their last five Thursday night games.

Philadelphia had some backup receivers in the loss to the Lions, but there can be no excuses for dropping seven passes. Both DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery were out and while Jeffery may play this Thursday, Jackson is likely to miss again.

The Eagles had more yards (373 to 287) than the Lions and Carson Wentz passed for 259 yards with two touchdowns and no picks. Miles Sanders was big with 53 rushing yards and also led Philly with 73 receiving yards. WR Nelson Agholor has to step up and be the top target for a banged-up receiver corps who just need to hold onto the rock.

In their last game the Packers beat the Denver Broncos 27-16 where they only had two more overall yards, but their defense came up with six sacks and two forced turnovers. Rodgers did not have a bad game under center with 235 passing yards and a touchdown with no interceptions, but the offense has not gotten it together with the team averaging just under 20 ppg.

Green Bay have been more balanced on offense when trying to establish the run and while only ranking 24th in the league in rushing yards per game, that balance has worked. Jamaal Williams had 59 rushing yards in the win over Denver, and he and Rodgers will be going up against an Eagles defense that has given up an average of 26 ppg this season.

Philadelphia played the run well on defense in their first two games but gave up 127 rushing yards in the loss to Detroit. The pass rush has also not been there with only one sack in their last two games.

These NFC teams have not faced off since the 2016 season.

Philadelphia @ Green Bay betting predictions

Green Bay Packers -4.5 at -111.11 with Bovada

The Packers are not only 3-0 but are 3-0 ATS, while the Eagles have failed to cover in any of their three games. Philly have to play a better game on offense than their last one, but their defense will struggle again. Rodgers will look like the Rodgers we are used to seeing and lead the Packers to a home win where they also cover the spread.
