this is on the fans, and the stadium
packer fans at games are a little bit different then other places. you have more elderly folks that have been following the team since the 20's and lots of families. they aren't gonna be your loud kind. more like the kind that yells at you to sit down when you stand up because you see a big play developing.
and then there's lambeau. its never really loud. and thats because of the design. a big huge bowl is never gonna be loud. too many people sitting too far away from the field, and all the noise going up and out. i've been saying for years that we need to put some kind of roof on the place. not a dome, but something like seattle of the new miami stadium have. something to knock the noise back down towards the field
Then red....you (might?) take exception with this:

Don't agree. Lambeau has fans closer to the field than most any other football stadium. The cheering at Lambeau is quite audible and discerneable to the opposing teams, as opposed to a wall of noise created by modern day acoustic design.
It's more difficult to ignore cat calls and personal references from fans 14 feet in back of your bench, in the end zone and all along the sidelines than it is for a cacophony of buzzing noises.
Go Pack Go, and your mother wears army boots, indeed.
For an outdoor stadium Lambeau is designed to be loud. The fans are "on top" of the field in a large enclosed bowl. I've gone to games where it's been loud and others where it's not loud. Some of it is the age of the fans. There are a lot of old timers at Packers game who rarely even clap.

Wait a minute, Wilde just said they were doing the wave while they have the ball. Is that true?
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Perfect weekend for WI sports. Brewers sweep the Cubs in Wriggly and then the Packers beat the Seahawks in satisfying fashion.
Studs:
Rodgers-to-Nelson. The only thing more satisfying than Seattle getting a 12 men on the field penalty is when we score a TD off it.
Mike Daniels + Nick Perry. Reminded me of this:
Morgan Burnett was everywhere.
Ty Montgomery is just a one man offense. Weird to see a RB wearing 88. Its incredible he's got the vision that he does. Count pass blocking among his long list of talents.
When guys have trouble getting open its going to be real nice to have Bennett out there who you can complete passes to anyways.
Duds:
Refs were bad and the Packers got away with major shit. When Pete Carrol calls the league office to complain he should just get a recording of the fail mary audio.
MM should have kept the beard.
Vince Biegel is nursing a foot while TJ Watt gets 2 sacks and an Int in his first game. God damnit Vince get out there and show who is the better Badger.
Pete Carrol's dumb fucking face.
70% of the Earth is covered by water. The rest is covered by Al Harris.
I second that emotion.
I know some people don't like the calls on the INT return, but you have to remember they had just called Cobb for some rather mundane post play talking. The officials made it clear from the get-go that they were not going to tolerate all the hormonal vag rage both teams seemed to have pent up. The push in the back is a no-brainer. The official sees hands push the back of a jersey - much less the only player with a chance to make a play - and that's going to be a flag every time. The fore arm seemed to be just as much about the continued attempt to choke Adams out on the ground as it was about the initial pussy strike.
I got tired of the pulling and grabbing by the DBs of both teams more than anything though. Weak.

So glad to see the corners and Clark and the nitro defense play well. If we play a solid game against Atlanta on the road, our defense is looking like they could be legit!!!

Brice becoming a legit NFL safety, Clark and Lowry becoming men (plus the addition of the vet relief DL we brought in), Daniels being a super hero and Burnett being so versatile and smart makes the Nitro defense possible. It's one of those things where the right pieces just fit together the right way!
It's like Collins speed covering the whole back end allowed peprah and Woodson to do whatever they wanted inside...... the strength of the DL now and the depth of our safety group is making the speed of this Nitro defense possible.
Can't wait!!!!!!
Well, we would have been up in arms if he hadn't played well.
As for the Packers' fans chanting "Go Pack Go" toward the end of the game when the Packers were on offense, the strangest part, to me, was seeing Jordy Nelson trot out wide left, waving his arms up and down, like he was trying to get the fans going.
Unless that was his special signal to Rodgers that he was goin' deep.

this is the problem with this game
the seahawks o-line was really really bad. did we look great because we're great, or did we look that we because they blow so bad
i don't know if we can judge how good our d-line is after that game. however, if we would have looked bad against that bad line, then we would be in trouble
what we do know, is that we looked good against a sucky o-line
