The Green Bay Packers’ season opener ended in a 34-29 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Brazil, but the bigger concern for the Packers is the injury to their quarterback, Jordan Love. Love suffered a lower body injury with just six seconds left in the game and had to be replaced by backup Malik Willis.
Although Love walked off the field with some assistance, the severity of his injury remains unclear. Coach Matt LaFleur did not provide a detailed update on Love’s condition, leaving uncertainty around his status.
On the other hand, Saquon Barkley’s debut with the Eagles was outstanding. He scored three touchdowns and rushed for 109 yards on 24 carries, playing a crucial role in the win. New offensive coordinator Kellen Moore utilized Barkley effectively, highlighting his playmaking ability.
The Eagles’ offense was also bolstered by strong performances from A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, with Jalen Hurts contributing both positively and negatively through two touchdown passes and two interceptions. Despite Hurts’ mixed performance, the Eagles’ offensive display under Moore was impressive.
