Official Packers vs. Raiders Game Day Thread

[Joemailman]

With the Winnipeg "NFL Experience" behind us now, and the Packers returning to play it's last preseason game at home vs Kansas City, I hope that we will see some serious 1st team (offense/defense/STs) game time before the regular season opener at Chicago. Practice is one thing, but it is not a substitute real competition. KC should play their #1s for at least a qtr, I hope that GB does the same.

I don't think you'll see Mahomes or Rodgers in this game.

I disagree that the game was a disaster. Had it been a regular season game, then, yes.

I was at the HOF game when Favre and Greene were inducted. They cancelled that because the field was a mess. That was a disaster.



"Large hole in Endzone" This is basically fake news.

I agree. It was fine. Pissed me off to see EQs injury, the way his cleats dug in and didn’t release. But that happens everywhere I guess.

The 80 yard field made it interesting for me tbh

I watched some Browns after and I was looking at the 10 yard line like it’s the goal.

Agree. It will be more of the same from PS game #3, except with a better field.

Most teams wouldn't dare risk putting a key starter or their franchise QB out there in a meaningless game just before the regular season starts. Game 4 is when all the scrubs are fighting to make a team or a name for themselves. It's all about getting good tape out there for the scouts and GMs.

Preseason is even more of a farce now than it was before. Can we go to 18 game schedule with two byes already? It’s inevitable.

Yep. Those two preseason games would be more important too. It’s a huge upgrade to the current setup.

Instead of shortening the field, they should just run the play clock or play a half.
