The Green Bay Packers and the Atlanta Falcons will meet at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta on Sunday in a massive clash in Week 8 of the 2016 regular season in the NFL. The game has a scheduled start time of 4.25 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the Fox network or online through live stream via the link below.
The Packers need the win today as they are chasing the NFC North leading Minnesota Vikings.
The Vikings come into this week on 5-1, where as the Falcons are on 4-2, and dare not drop back any further if they are to maintain pressure on Minnesota for the top spot and postseason verification.
The Falcons though will not be an easy game, and they are in their own tight spot in the NFC South.
Atlanta come into the game on 4-3, and are only marginally ahead of the 3-3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
They will not want to give anything away this week, and will know a loss would drop them back to an even 4-4 record and allow the Buccaneers to leapfrog them into the top spot in the division standings.
Earlier in Week 8, NFL Thursday Night Football saw the Jacksonville Jaguars go on the road to take on the Tennessee Titans.
The game looked like it could have been close on paper, but things were all but over by half time as the Titans stormed into a massive 27-0 lead.
Although the Jaguars fought back in the second half and made the scoreline less embarrassing, things still ended 36-22 in the Titan favor, and that result lifted them to 4-4.
That means the Titans remain very much relevant to how the season turns out, and if they can continue pushing things in the second half of the season they could end up as a surprise package in the postseason.
Meanwhile for the Jaguars, it looks like their season is all but over as they dropped to 2-5, and it is unlikely they can comeback from there to compete for the Playoff slots.
