This is the white out game. I think this is the wrong game for the white out game as it should be a night game for that (Thanksgiving Miami would have been perfect)
Don't you live in Florida? I'm in the Jacksonville area this week for hurricane relief. I had forgotten that the Pack is in Jacksonville next weekend. Problem is it's the day after I leave!
Come on down and try some of our delicious green chili! Best in the world!
It's amazing now how much of the network coverage the Packers have picked up since the start of the season. Plus, the #1 team for CBS will be there this week. It's apparent that the masses are more aware of these Packers and want more!

I've always liked these as an alternative uniform.

Southwest Florida i considered in the Miami and Tampa markets so we get those games first.

Great game for the league, surprised they kept it at noon. I like that the Texans will be without 2 starters in their secondary. I don't expect our defense to hold them under 20 points, but I think offensive game script will be huge here. Pound the ball with Jacobs, establish time of possession.
I'd be disappointed if we lose, but if we look really good, and it's close, and we lose to arguably one of the top teams in the AFC, then it is what it is.
Would also love to see continued growth with our 2 rookie defensive playmakers (Cooper and Williams).
F YOU TV NETWORKS! I want Eau Claire stations not Twins Cities!

I have a nice one, but since everything went digital, it won't come in. When we built the house 4 years ago, I was hoping, but no.... It is probably just under that 70 mile mark from our house to the station in Eau Claire. Annoying.

Lol, I have not gotten a single Packers game so far this year in the 1pm-4 pm window on CBS or fox here in western NY, first time I can ever recall this far into the season.

Have you tried an indoor antenna with an amplifier? Some of them claim to pick up stations from several hundred miles away.
