### Packers Face Jaguars in Week 8 Showdown: How to Watch and Game Predictions

The Green Bay Packers are set to face the Jacksonville Jaguars at EverBank Stadium this Sunday in a highly anticipated Week 8 matchup. Riding a wave of momentum, the Packers have secured victories in their last three games and five out of their last six. Meanwhile, the Jaguars are coming off a confidence-boosting win after a two-week stint in London, improving their record with two wins in the last three games following a rocky 0-4 start.

Fans eager to catch the action can tune in to FOX, where the game will be broadcast locally. The commentary team includes Kenny Albert and former NFL linebacker Jonathan Vilma in the booth, with Megan Olivi providing insights from the sidelines at Lambeau Field.

For those looking to stream the game, livestream options are available, allowing viewers to watch the Packers and Jaguars battle it out online.

In terms of predictions, the Jaguars appear to be a formidable opponent on paper, more so than the AFC South-leading Texans, especially given Houston's recent injury woes. Despite the Packers' expressed commitment to not underestimating their opponent, this game serves as a critical test of their maturity and consistency. Previous encounters against the Giants and Panthers highlighted areas needing improvement for the Packers, but 2024 brings a renewed sense of determination. Players like Jordan Love and the emergence of Jeff Hafley’s aggressive defensive strategies are setting the Packers apart this season.

Based on current form and team dynamics, the Packers are favored to win, with betting odds placing them at -3.5 and an over/under of 49.5 points. The projected scoreline suggests a commanding performance by Green Bay, with final predictions pointing to a 30-20 victory over the Jaguars.

This Week 8 game is crucial for both teams, with the Packers looking to consolidate their winning streak and the Jaguars aiming to build on their recent successes.
