The Green Bay Packers will visit the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 27, 2024, in a crucial Week 8 matchup at EverBank Stadium. Get in on all the action with our free NFL picks.

The Packers have been in strong form, winning 5 of their last 6 games, which has propelled them to a 5-2 record. Led by quarterback Jordan Love, who has thrown for 1,351 yards and 15 touchdowns, the Packers’ offense has been balanced, averaging 26.6 points per game. Running back Josh Jacobs has also been a major addition to this team, as Jacobs has contributed with 540 rushing yards, adding to Green Bay’s formidable ground game .

The Jaguars come into the game with a 2-5 record but are fresh off a 32-16 win against the New England Patriots in London, England. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence has thrown for 1,527 yards and 9 touchdowns this season. The Jaguars backfield is a bit of a question, as Travis Etienne has been the workhorse for this offense, but a recent injury sidelined him last week. Etienne has been a powerful rusher while rookie running back Tank Bigsby has rushed for 415 yards himself. Jacksonville’s defense, however, has struggled, allowing 27.7 points per game, which could pose a problem against Green Bay’s efficient offense.

The Packers, riding a strong streak and with Love playing at a high level, should have the edge in this game. Jacksonville’s defensive struggles could be exposed by Green Bay’s balanced attack, and the Packers have an offense miles ahead of the Jags. Final Score Prediction, expect the Packers to secure a road victory on the road 30-20.
