The Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers will kick off their seasons on foreign soil.
They will pack their bags and head to Sao Paulo, Brazil, to play the first-ever NFL game in South American lands.
Needless to say, that has created a huge buzz around town.
As shown by Eliot Shorr-Parks on Twitter (via Phans of Philly), they’ve even set up a mural of Jalen Hurts and Jordan Love already.

The Eagles enter this season with high hopes but also with plenty of weight on their shoulders.
They dropped six of their last seven games last season, including a playoff game, and Nick Sirianni enters the campaign on the hot seat.
Howie Roseman made sure to go the extra mile to add more talent in the offseason, even trading for Jahan Dotson just days before the roster-cut deadline.
They also brought in two top-notch assistant coaches such as Vic Fangio and Kellen Moore to get the struggling Sirianni some much-needed help.
That means there won’t be more room for excuses this time around.
They have the players and the coaching staff to go the distance.
Even so, they could’ve definitely asked for an easier task to open the season.
Going against the Packers will be difficult.
Jordan Love and Matt LaFleur proved to be a perfect combination in his first full season as a starter, and this team is far ahead of schedule.
Some have them as Super Bowl contenders, so they will have to hit the ground running in Brazil.
