Kickoff: 8:15 p.m. ET, Monday | Broadcast: ESPN/ABC | Location: Lambeau Field, Green Bay, Wisconsin
Monday Night Football heads to historic Lambeau Field as two of the NFC’s top teams collide when the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles (6-2) take on the Green Bay Packers (5-2-1). Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. ET on ESPN and ABC.
The matchup marks the latest chapter in a storied series that Green Bay leads 28-20, though Philadelphia has had the upper hand of late. The Eagles have beaten the Packers three straight times, including a 34-29 win in Brazil to open the 2024 season and a 22-10 victory in last year’s NFC wild-card playoff game, part of their run to a Super Bowl title.
Green Bay’s last win over Philadelphia came in 2020, a 30-16 decision during the pandemic-shortened season.
The Eagles come into Week 10 fresh off a bye week following their 38-20 win over the New York Giants on Oct. 26, a game in which their offense rediscovered its balance and explosiveness. Philadelphia ran for a season-high 276 yards, the second-best single-game rushing total by any NFL team this season.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts has been efficient and dynamic, throwing 15 touchdown passes with only one interception through eight games. His 20 combined touchdowns (15 passing, five rushing) rank third in the NFL, trailing only Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes and the Los Angeles Rams’ Matthew Stafford.
Hurts has benefited from another strong campaign by wide receiver DeVonta Smith, who ranks eighth in the league with 588 receiving yards and leads all receivers with 10.7 yards per target, trailing only Seattle rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba (12.0). Tight end Dallas Goedert continues to be a key red-zone target, with seven touchdown catches, second-most in the league behind Davante Adams of the Rams (eight).
Philadelphia’s offensive line remains one of the league’s best, anchored by right tackle Lane Johnson, who hasn’t allowed a single sack or quarterback hit this season.
For Green Bay, the focus is on bouncing back from last week’s stunning 16-13 home loss to the Carolina Panthers, a defeat that came despite the Packers being 13-point favorites. It was their first loss as a double-digit favorite since 2018.
Running back Josh Jacobs remains the focal point of Green Bay’s attack, leading the NFL with 10 rushing touchdowns — trailing only Indianapolis star Jonathan Taylor (12) — and pacing the league with 25 total rushing TDs since 2024. Jacobs is the first Packer to notch back-to-back seasons with 10 or more rushing scores since franchise legend Jim Taylor (1960–62).
On defense, safety Xavier McKinney delivered a standout performance against Carolina, recording both a sack and an interception in a three-play span. Meanwhile, edge rusher Micah Parsons has been a disruptive force with 44 quarterback pressures, second only to Detroit’s Aidan Hutchinson (46) according to Next Gen Stats.
However, the Packers will need better production from kicker Brandon McManus, who has struggled since returning from a quadriceps injury, going just 4-for-7 on field goals over the past two games.
The Eagles’ recent success against the Packers — including two victories in 2024 and their playoff win last January — gives them confidence heading into a chilly Wisconsin night. Philadelphia has started 6-2 or better for the fourth straight season, a mark of consistency that has them squarely in the mix for another deep postseason run.
But Green Bay has thrived under the Lambeau lights against elite opponents. This will be the third time in four seasons the Packers host the defending Super Bowl champions — and they won the previous two, beating the Rams 24-12 in 2022 and the Chiefs 27-19 in 2023.
With both teams sitting near the top of the NFC standings, Monday night’s matchup could have significant playoff implications — and perhaps a preview of another January meeting down the line.
Expect a hard-hitting, cold-weather classic. Philadelphia’s ground game and Hurts’ poise may give them the edge, but Green Bay’s home-field magic under the lights could make this one a thriller to the final whistle.
