Philadelphia destroyed the Packers last year in Green Bay though the Packers beat the Eagles in both 2011 and 2010.
The Eagles are 4-12-1 Against The Spread vs. a team with a winning record while the Packers are 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 home games.
Aaron Rodgers has not thrown an interception at home since Week 13 of 2012. His 10 consecutive starts without throwing an interception at home are the longest such streak in NFL history.
The Packers have won their last three home games by an average of 31.3 points. The Eagles have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing arms on the season and this bodes quite well for Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
Green Bay, on the other hand, has allowed the 10th-fewest fantasy points to opposing arms. And that’s not good news for the rejuvenated Eagles replacement QB Mark Sanchez.
Philadelphia may have some luck with LeSean McCoy as Green Bay allows the fifth-highest yards per carry clip (4.6).
Meanwhile, Green Bay and Philadelphia both have wide receivers ranked in the top five.
The Packers Jordy Nelson leads the NFL with five receiving scores of at least 40 yards this season. The Eagles have allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts this season.
The Packers secondary has allowed the 14th-most fantasy points to opposing wideouts on the season, which is good news for top five wide receiver Jermey Maclin.
