Over the past month, the Green Bay Packers have looked terrible, dropping four straight games to remove themselves from the playoff picture.

It won’t get any easier for the Packers as they travel to Philadelphia to face the Eagles. Although the Eagles sit at the bottom of the NFC East – the league’s best division – with a 5-5 record, they are undefeated at home.

The Eagles don’t have the weapons on offense like Tennessee and Washington, but rookie quarterback Carson Wentz is playing well, despite struggling at times to take care of the ball.

The Packers have question marks on both sides of the ball and haven’t shown any signs of turning it around. While they are in desperation mode, don’t expect anything to change.

Prediction: Eagles 31, Packers 27
