We know that the Eagles will host a team in Brazil, for the first Friday of the season, after the Thursday night opener.

Packers President Mark Murphy announced that the Eagles opponents is down to two teams, the Eagles will host either the Browns or the Packers in Brazil.

Prior to this, a Browns DT said it would be the Browns making the trip. I'm wondering if the Browns and Packers volunteered for this and are now battling it out to see whom goes.

We would want this. Eagles would be home team, as not in their actual home field, as in not with actual home field advantage.

So, Packers 9 home games, 7 away games, 1 "neutral" game?

I don't like it. It's hard on the players to travel so far. It's better when it's a Thursday the first week of the season they haven't established a real routine.

What's "Go Pack Go!" in Portuguese? 🤔

Browns are reporting they will play The Eagles in Brazil.

Have they jumped the gun on the announcement?

I wouldn't like it from a players, their family and fans perspective because some people are absolutely going to get robbed... and might be lucky if that's all that happens. (Brazil tells you to bring a fake wallet and phone just for that reason).

But I like the idea of getting a game out of the way early (especially a road game) having an extra day of rest before the 2nd game... and the rest of the season you have 9 home games and 7 away games.

If you want a laugh listen to Brad Williams Brazil story (maybe not with kids around)

"We don't know a thing," Browns owner Jimmy Haslam told a small group of beat writers, including the Beacon Journal, on Monday. "We don't know when we'll know. We know we're one of the teams up (for the game)."

Goodell says the decision will be announced "within next week" and some reports saying it could be decided as early as Thursday.

Speaking at the annual owner's meetings on Tuesday, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell told a gallery of reporters that a decision on the Eagles Week 1 opponent for a first of its kind game played in Sau Paolo Brazil will be announced "within the next week." According to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, that decision could even come as early as Thursday.

Packers will open their 2025 season Friday, Sept 6 in São Paulo, Brazil vs Eagles, the team announced this morning. It’s their 2nd international game after playing Giants in London 2 years ago.

Unlike 2022, this will be a road game moved to neutral site.

Also, sounds like Peacock game.
