GB 19 Philly 17 at the half. Good game, but looks like no one else is watching. 

 

Had I known I could not watch it on NFL+, I would have gone to one of my siblings' homes to watch it. They have Peacock.

 

I'm listening on Westwood One. Looks like Hurts threw a TD; AJ Brown scored. It seems like there is a lot of offense in these first two games.

[NFLfan]

Packers 26, Eagles 24, with about 8 minutes left in the 3rd Quarter.

 

Like yesterday's game, there are tons of penalties. 12 accepted penalties so far, lots more were declined.

 

[Zoltan]

So many flags

[smittywerb]

Josh Jacobs is killing my parlays right now ;(

[Colts.sb41]

It’s amazing how much more efficient everyone’s offense becomes after the first month or so of the season. There has been plenty of offense tonight but some of the mistakes I don’t think you’ll see as the season goes.

[Dingus McGirt]

Is it my TV …. Or is the crowd a bit quiet?

[JediXMan]

Hopefully Love bad outing continues with the Colts. Under 50% passing oof.

I’m curious what his injury will be? Maybe just a sprained ankle and he’ll have 9 days to rest.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

That will be a injury to watch for next Sunday

How did he get hurt?

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

That field was so bad. Surprised that is the only injury that happened.

Late to the party but both games were great. I got both games wrong but still fun to watch. I hope Love is OK, although if he doesn't play next week that would benefit the Colts.

Is that artificial turf or natural grass field ?

To answer my own question

Corinthians Arena turf

Sometimes when NFL teams go outside of the country, either the stadiums have to modify their playing surface for American football, or the two teams simply have to deal with the different grass or turf. 

 

However, when it comes to Corinthians Arena, it's going to be a familiar feel for both the Eagles and the Packers. 

 

The playing surface at Corinthians Arena uses GrassMaster, which is a product that combines perennial Ryegrass with artificial fibers. It's essentially a fancy version of real grass mixed with elements of turf fibers, as opposed to using strictly turf. 

 

There are currently only two stadiums in the NFL that use that same material for their playing surfaces — Lincoln Financial Field, home of the Eagles, and Lambeau Field, home of the Packers. 

 

Hopefully, Love doesn't have any major or lasting injury, and returns to the field pretty soon this season. Him returning next week will be essential to have a very competitive game next week against the Colts.

If Willis has to start, Green Bay is in a lot of trouble.

I’d be more surprised if Willis isn’t the starter for a few weeks. Packers are gonna be digging themselves out of a hole.

Love left the locker room under his own power last night. Most likely just an ankle sprain. He will probably play. Apparently without much of a limp.

I once badly sprained my ankle and was initially in a lot of pain. After about 10 minutes, the pain subsided and I was able to walk about a mile in snow with little pain. The next day, I could not walk as I was in so much pain. Many people describe having the same experience after sustaining a sprained ankle.

 

Love is probably in a lot of pain this morning. He probably should let the ankle heal before playing again.

It definitely wouldn’t break my heart if he wants to take next week off!

Wow not the ankle

It doesn't show the intended content now. But, as I reply to you, I can see the tweet... Oh well, never mind.

I just saw that on the Vikings site that I follow. Someone else on the Vikings site said that another doctor thought it was an ACL injury.

Yeah, it's frightening how it gets worse after feeling better. 

 

As for Love, it looked like he could've injured knee or ankle, both looked dangerously close to getting hurt, but it all could be just a mild sprain, hopefully the case.. we just need to wait for proper diagnosis.

I used to watch his YouTube channel for injury explanations for fantasy purpose few years back, I think it was different channel back then..

 

... He does a great job of explaining technicalities.

I have never heard of him. He may be right. Many on DN thought the knee popped. I did not see that. These injuries are terrible.

@2006Coltsbestever  Your favorite QB may be playing for GB if Love is out.

What a break for the colts next Sunday.

He won't play next week, for sure. He is expected to miss 3-6 weeks, per the Athletic and SB Nation's Acme Packing Company (the equivalent of Stampede Blue, but for the Packers).

 

He should also miss the Vikings game in Week 4.

That's great. I am glad that you enjoyed it. Hopefully you did not have to travel much to go to Säo Paulo.  One of my best friends is originally from Rio. She is an Eagles fan. She would have loved to be there yesterday.

 

I would like to go to a game in Europe one year. I'm going to the Vikings @ Giants game in New Jersey tomorrow.

Tomorrow. 8 AM.

I live in Jundiai, 40min drive of the stadium, pretty easy.

 

I'll go to Miami in January,  hoping they are in the playoffs.

[NFLfan]

Giants fans are not happy that Saquon is playing for the Eagles now. He looked great yesterday, better than he has looked with the Giants.

As a reference: Aaron Rodgers had a MCL sprain in 2018 and missed no time at all. 

 

The injury to J-Love will not keep him out 3 to 6 weeks. His status will be determined day to day. Meaning his status for any upcoming game this season will be day to day. This post is not implying Jordan will not miss the Colts game at Lambeau. This comment is factually stating that Jordan Love will not miss 3 to 6 weeks, and that his status is day to day.

 

Any further information directly from inside 1265 Lombardi Avenue will be posted on a need to know basis.

That's great... Because whether it is Colts game or Vikings game a couple of weeks later, I'd like the opponent to be at full strength and strongly competitive

3 to 6 seems right.
