The NFL is making history this Friday, September 6, as it hosts its inaugural game in South America. The Green Bay Packers will face off against the Philadelphia Eagles at Corinthians Arena in São Paulo, Brazil.
These NFC rivals enter the game with vastly different storylines from the end of the 2023 season. The Packers ended the regular season on a high note, winning six of their last eight games to secure a playoff spot as the No. 7 seed. Led by Jordan Love, they pulled off a surprising victory over the Dallas Cowboys and nearly toppled the eventual conference champion San Francisco 49ers.
In contrast, the Eagles stumbled significantly towards the end of the season. After a promising 10-1 start, they faltered, losing five of their last six games. Their season ended on a sour note with a disappointing playoff defeat to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Philadelphia Eagles vs Green Bay Packers team news
Philadelphia Eagles team news
CB James Bradberry is on Injured Reserve. LB Jalyx Hunt, WR Johnny Wilson, and TE Dallas Goedert are all questionable.
After a blazing 10-1 start, which was the league’s best record through the first 12 weeks, it seemed Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles were cruising towards their second consecutive Super Bowl appearance. However, the season took an unexpected dive. The Eagles stumbled, dropping five of their final six games, and their playoff journey was abruptly halted by a 32-9 drubbing at the hands of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the Wild Card round.
In the wake of this underwhelming finish, the Eagles shook up their coaching staff, parting ways with offensive coordinator Brian Johnson, defensive coordinator Sean Desai, and senior defensive assistant Matt Patricia.
New faces are stepping into key roles: Kellen Moore and Vic Fangio are taking over as the offensive and defensive coordinators, respectively. Philadelphia added the likes of running back Saquon Barkley, wide receiver Jahan Dotson and pass rusher Bryce Huff in the offseason.
Meanwhile, fifth-year quarterback Hurts is aiming for greater stability after finishing last season with career highs of 15 interceptions and 20 turnovers.

Green Bay Packers team news
RB MarShawn Lloyd is doubtful for the packers. CB LJ Davis, LB Ralen Goforth and DT Jonathan Ford are all on IR.
In his debut season as the Packers' starting quarterback, Jordan Love—a 2020 first-round draft pick who spent his first three years learning behind Aaron Rodgers—demonstrated he's more than ready to lead the team. Over the last 10 games of the regular season, the former Utah State standout tossed 21 touchdowns, ranking second in the league. His postseason performance also impressed, with a completion rate of 67.3%.
In response to Love's strong showing, the Packers’ management made a significant commitment. As of July, Love is now tied with Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence as one of the highest-paid players in NFL history in terms of average salary. He secured a 4-year extension valued at $220 million. Green Bay notably picked up running back Josh Jacobs and safety Xavier McKinney in the offseason.
