Eleventh Monday Night game in the NFL season from Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia between the Eagles and the Packers in a must-win game as both try to remount positions in their division. The Packers have started the game with possession of the ball and Rodgers appeared immediately infermatile guiding his team to touchdown he is with his short passes with both his legs during the scramble once the defense sent to drop too many players for cover the receivers of Green Bay, the touchdown was scored by Devante Adams on a slant route beating McKelvin in man marking. The response of the Eagles came immediately with a drive from 81 yards led by a great Carson Wentz that exploiting the weaknesses of one of the worst defenses in the NFL has decided to give priority to launches and the result proved him right as it came easily close the endzone where he scored in the process of scrambling his first rushing touchdowns in NFL drawing the match. After only 7 seconds elapsed in the second quarter of Green Bay is back ahead by 7 points with a spectacular touchdown Devante Adams this time marked man from Nolan Carroll that nothing could have seen the perfect launching Aaron Rodgers that throughout the drive has been excellent varying often the formations and men in the backfield making it really difficult to understand which defense of Philadelphia played would come. The home side after having stopped for the first time in the game the Green Bay attack have reduced the deficit with 25 seconds on the clock of the second quarter on a 48-yard field goal by Caleb Sturgis who finished in fact the first half of game.
The second half of the game has seen encouraging start to the defense of the Packers that has succeeded thanks to good pressure on Wentz to make him miss a launch which was later intercepted by the safety Ha Ha Clynton-Dix, the ball is passed into the hands Rodgers who arrived immediately in field goal range with yet another spectacular launch for Adams with a grip back shoulder gave the chance to Mason Crosby sweetly and make his first field goal of the evening. Wentz is back once that seen to intercept and thanks to his average short passes was able to arrive in the territory of the Packers but once a couple of receivers inaccuracies they have allowed the defense to stop them, consequently Pederson coach has decided to kick a field goal from 50 yards to Caleb Sturgis who has confirmed a great kicker realizing it. At the beginning of the fourth quarter of Green Bay it was brought close to the end zone thanks to a drive made almost entirely of short passes but in the end it was a race, more exactly Ripkowski from 2 yards to bring the ball into the endzone and give 11 points advantage guests. After their defense stopped the attack of the Eagles the Packers have closed the game with a drive of 8 minutes that ended with a field goal from 32 yards by Mason Crosby.
