From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
Are trap games really a thing when you're in a playoff chase? I have to think you are acutely aware of the importance of each game and that you don't overlook a single opponent.
You wouldn't think so right, but I believe it happens. Its sort of just human nature. After we win Monday Will it be quite as satisfying as a fan as the KC win? Maybe to some but I think we take more pleasure in defying odds and or beating a rival, I think it happens to players too . The one good thing is its on national TV on Monday night. Hopefully that will keep the guys amped/jacked up!
We just need to continue to RUN THE TABLE, MAKE THE PLAYOFFS, and SHUT UP THE ANTI-JORDAN LOVE crowds.
When this happens I may even to be inclined to extend a reversal of thought toward LaCoach and Joe Barry.........but that's still a MAYBE. Gutey ...... not so sure, and GO PACK GO.
Oh by the way ............... based on my observations at the Packers-Chiefs game, there are plenty of Packers fans out there invested in Jordan Love jerseys and signed memorabilia now. This is a compelling transformation that should be celebrated by people that actually care about such things.

I feel like this meets the eye test. The Packers defense is decent at keeping you out of the end zone, but worst in the league and making teams punt and flipping the field.

. Starting Right tackle Evan Neal, the 7th pick of the 2022 draft and a building block on a struggling offensive line, will miss another game with an ankle injury.
That's a shame. I'm sure Rashan Gary will send him a get-well soon card.
The only things I worry about is being on the road and having them run it at us because they have no other choice. Without Watson in this one will the offense regress? Overall our pass rush should carry this game and be in their ass like a girbil. I wanna see some forced fumbles.
I'm very excited to see if a guy like Wicks and Reed can step up in Watson's absense. I too was concerned about Wicks in Detroit and low and behold Heath had a huge game.
WRs being out provides opportunity. Now go out there and take it.
With expectations for this team being as measured as they are this season, it is easy to get excited about backups getting more snaps. Christian Watson's health is going to be a problem. I agree that it is good for guys like Reed and Wicks to get more play time. But imagine for a second if the Packers were Super Bowl contenders this season. And their #1 receiver is on and off the field constantly. As the team grows and the roster gets better, our patience with CWat and his inconsistent health is going to wear thin. I'd consider drafting a WR high- ideally one who has a strong record of health.

I could definitely be on board with that. I am a best player available guy other than QB. Best player available can be manipulated with trading up or down of course. Running back would be nice in the middle rounds too. Can we find the next Aaron Jones????
