  • Fun Time !

    If you had the unchallenged authority to make changes to the GB Packers, what changes would you make? This can range from stadium changes to uniform changes to promotional events to player trades. You could change the team's name or colors if you liked. Create a marching band, hire better cheerleaders, or modify the stadium concessions menu with your favorite foods.

    I would change from yellow helmets to green helmets. Trim them in yellow and use the same logo in
    yellow/white.

    Who the hell needs (that sick word) change? Things are fine just the way they are - with the possible exception of a few on the field type changes. Everything else is irrelevant.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

      I'm glad that you don't speak for everyone else. Were that so we all would still be without microwave ovens and cell phones would not exist.

      Lighten up Francis !

      A Draft trade to move up in round 1 to get a WR would be a change that I could support. I don't know if the Packers have a Team Airplane, but I'd have to look into that area of the operation.

        I can't run no more
        With that lawless crowd
        While the killers in high places
        Say their prayers out loud
        But they've summoned, they've summoned up
        A thundercloud
        They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

          I would add some kind of roof structure above the skyboxes

          Not a real roof the covers the field, but something like Seattle has that bounces the crowd noise back down into the field to make the place way louder. Something like what you see in England on some of the older soccer stadiums

          Lambeau is way too quiet imo. I don’t know if it’s the family crowds, or just the fact that nothing is there to help keep the noise in, but it’s too damn quiet

          I thought the south end zone addition would help make the place louder, but I’m not sure it did

              I would agree with Red; however we do it we need to artificially get it louder at Lambeau field. Is there any way to build in some speakers making the crowd noise louder, or if not add a roof structure to make it louder.

              If I was Gooter I'd suggest cutting Jimmy's ass and making one solid free agent signing at a position of need ahead of the draft .....so basically we don't have as many desperate needs. First I'd look at AJ Green if he's not too expensive. If not, then I'd look at ILB options assuming Martinez is going to FA. If we signed AJ Green I'd be trying to trade MVS and Allison for what we can get them for. So our WR core would be Adams, AJ Green, Lizard, St Brown, a high draft pick, and maybe Kumerow as the 6 due to ST.

              If we didn't get AJ Green and CeCe Lamb was still there around 20 I'd trade up and offer up our 3rd and one mid round pick to do so. He looks like a Sterling Sharpe player to me. If we don't do that I'd nab one of the big ILB's at pick 30 iif they are there

              If we dont' do it and we're sitting at pick 30 I think we'll see similar talented WR's available over the next 15 picks. I would for sure trade down a dozen spots or so trying to net an extra 3rd. And if the value was right I'd use a 4th to move up and get a second pick in round 2. I'd pick a WR with the 1st second and the BPA at a position of need with the 2nd.

              Oh, and Draft NO dam Northwestern Players, draft Cephus, and Chris Orr as a good value late in the draft.

              And I'd also draft producers in the first four rounds. . I don't want any more underachievers like Rashan Gary or Montravius Adams who have great ability but underachieved in college. If you want to take wild cards and shoot for the moon on potential based on measurables do it in rounds 5-7

                Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                  Wouldn't change a freakin' thing. Real life is too interesting.

                    A.J.Green will be 32 years old before the 2020 regular season begins. I would agree that even as Green has recovered from a 2019 ankle injury, he is closer to retirement than starting a brilliant career at WR. Also I don't see the Bengals drafting the #1 QB (Joe Burrow) and not having a receiver for him to throw to.

                    Next, covering the areas over the seats at Lambeau would be a great addition to Lambeau, increasing the crowd noise would be a bonus. Also, a heated roof could help to reduce snow removal prior to some games. The roofing would therefor need to be extra heavy duty and durable.

                    The league has been mandating those one color uniforms for at least one game. Green helmets would provide greater contrast with the white uniforms over the current yellow helmets and the green helmets look great.

                      Ugh! No, no, no. While Lambert Field is one of the quietest stadiums in the NFL, the artificial noise is awful. They tried it in 2019 and all it did was give people headaches. As great as organic, success and crowd-driven mania noise is, piped-in artificial noise is as equally terrible.

                        Although I could get behind architectural means to enhance the organic crowd noise, and no dammit, that is not a euphemism.

                            I think AJ Green has a few good years left; and swapping out Graham's salary and a bit more would be a great tradeoff IMO.

                              I like the Packers use of the all White for their color rush, I would like to see it more for regular away games.
