Part 5/7:
The Eagles’ offense, characterized by its rhythm-centric passing game, must find a way to incorporate Hurts without overexposing him to contact, especially after a concussion. Given Hurts' unique skill set, the Eagles risk putting him in harm's way if they rely heavily on running plays.
Importance of the Early Game
It seems that the early moments of the game will be crucial for the Packers. Historically, Hurts has struggled during the initial drives—he has the lowest production among quarterbacks during the first two drives, a statistic that could be telling for the Packers' game plan. If they can capitalize on this weakness, they might build an early lead that would force the Eagles out of their comfort zone.
