Mark Sanchez will start his second game for the Philadelphia Eagles today, looking to stay hot on the road in Green Bay. The Packers will arguably provide the first real test of Sanchez’s future in Philly as we watch Philadelphia Eagles vs Green Bay Packers online free live, as they have a much better record and defense than the two teams he’s beaten.
On the other side of the field, Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers will also look to stay hot as we watch the Packers game today. Rodgers scorched the Bears 55-14 last Sunday in Chicago, throwing for 315 yards and six first-half TDs last week, tying an NFL record. Two of those TDs were long bombs to Jordy Nelson, who leads the 6-3 Packers with 889 yards this season.
Sanchez was no slouch last week, passing for 332 yards and two touchdowns in the Eagles’ 45-21 win over the Carolina Panthers on Monday Night Football. We’ll watch the Packers game today take place in Green Bay, though, where the Packers have allowed just four passing touchdowns all season and held opposing QBs to an NFL-low 64.2 rating.
Sanchez’s hope as we watch today’s Packers game live free may lie in his penchant for short passes. However, he’ll need to watch Green Bay LB Clay Matthews, who last week had 11 tackles and one sack against the Bears. The Packers also rank 10th in total pass defense this season, allowing just 229.1 yards per game.
On defense, Philadelphia will want to watch Packers game clock killer Eddie Lacy as much as they watch Rodgers. While the running back hasn’t carried the ball much this season, he’s been more engaged through the air during the past three Packers games, catching 14 passes for 201 yards. In last season’s 27-13 loss to the Eagles, Lacy had 24 carries as Rodgers sat out with a broken collarbone. Lacy won’t see as many rushing touches as we watch the Eagles game live today, but he could be a receiving threat against a Philly pass defense that allows 251.7 yards per game.
