OAK CREEK, Wis. - The Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles will play the first NFL regular-season game in South America when they open the season against each other Friday night at Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Both teams are coming off postseason appearances. The Packers capitalized on a late surge to advance to the NFC divisional playoffs before losing at San Francisco. The Eagles started out 10-1 but won just once more the rest of the season and fell to Tampa Bay in the wild-card round.
