Green Bay’s first team offense looked to be in midseason form when they were on the field in the preseason, while Philadelphia is still struggling with a make shift offense line and a new quarterback, Kevin Kolb, who only had two previous starts in the NFL.

The Packers are probably the most balanced team in the NFC with an offense that ended last season ranked sixth overall and a defense that was ranked second. The Eagles offense under their old quarterback, Donovan McNabb were ranked 11th and their defense was ranked 12th. While the defense should actually be better this year with the addition of first round pick DE Brandon Graham and second pick S Nate Allen, their offense could struggle early to put points on the board.

Green Bay is the real deal and should actually have a fairly easy time of it in this game. The Packers roll in a high scoring opening day romp.
