The duel between the New York Giants and the Green Bay Packers next Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium of London highlights in week five of the 2022 NFL season.
This will be the second of five international games the NFL has scheduled this year outside of the United States.of which there will be one more in London, one in Munich and another in Mexico.
In the first, the Vikings beat the Saints 28-25 the previous Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Giants and Packers add, each, three wins and one loss.
Green Bay bounced back from its week one slump to the Vikingsto later chain victories against the Bears, Buccaneers and Patriots, although the latter did not leave Aaron Rodgers, his quarterback, happy, who criticized the performance of his team.
The four-time NFL MVP’s annoyance was because the Packers suffered to win in overtime against a Pats who used their number three quarterback, rookie Bailey Zappe, due to injuries to starter Mac Jones and his reliever Brian Hoyer.
“This way of winning I don’t think it’s sustainable because it puts too much pressure on our defense, obviously I have to play better and of course I will,” said the quarterback.
Rodgers has complained about the ineffectiveness of his offense21st in the league in terms of points converted with 75, for an average of 18.8 per game.
In the duel against the Giants, the pressure on the defense referred to by the quarterback will be tested against the best running back in the league until week four; Saquon Barkley, the leader in yards with 465 and an average of 115.8 per game.
A threat to the Packers’ defense who is No. 22 against the runallows 126.8 yards per game, an invitation for Barkley’s ability to support the attack of the Giants, one of the teams that has surprised the league.
Week five will kick off on Thursday with the visit of the Indianapolis Colts against the Denver Broncos, a team in which quarterback Russell Wilson is still far from the expectations generated by his arrival; he’s 16th in passing yards, 980.
Also, the Broncos’ offense will be without star running back Javonte Williams, who last week tore his ACL and was out for the season.
On Sunday the undefeated walk that the Philadelphia Eagles will defend against the Arizona Cardinals steals attentionand the duel between the favorite Buffalo Bills led by Josh Allen who will test rookie Kenny Pickett in his first game as a starter with the Steelers.
The activity will close on Monday between the Raiders, who in week four achieved their first victory, against the Chiefs motivated by the good performance of their passer Patrick Mahomes in the previous Sunday’s victory over Tom Brady’s Buccaneers.
