I can turn off the breaking news banner on top, but then another one shows up!

by MJ 8/23/2019 12:02:54 AM
That banner will disappear shortly.

Starters benched because of the field... what a joke. Nice call NFL.

Did it help?

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:03:54 AM
The inactive list is longer than the active list. Maybe the inactive guys can sit in the stands to make it look like someone is there.

Philosophically, do you think Gutey would draft a kid like Cephus from wisconsin or would he be off their board just because. . . .

by Tampa Tom 8/23/2019 12:04:18 AM
I think they'd do their research on him. But he was found innocent and deserves that consideration.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:04:52 AM
Nobody in the stands; problems with the field; second and third stringers to play -- reminds me of the USFL without the scantily clad cheerleaders.

by BrookfieldPacker 8/23/2019 12:05:03 AM
Wow. Not just 12, but Aaron Jones, and several others, won't have much - if any - practice of the new offense in a real game. ...as if playing the Bears in Chicago on a Thursday night isn't enough!

by Karen 8/23/2019 12:05:12 AM
They could play some starters next week at Lambeau Field. I don't think they would play Rodgers, but I could see them playing the offensive line and the running backs for a series or two.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:05:44 AM
Well, let's be half glass full here. BG and team will get an extended look against Oakland's 1s - and he'll be closer to the 53 than he would have been otherwise.

by Tom from CA 8/23/2019 12:05:54 AM
I don't think Oakland's No. 1s are playing either.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:06:05 AM
Tom are the bleachers in bad condition, too? Thus, no fans?

by Tom from CA 8/23/2019 12:06:11 AM
Could be.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:06:14 AM
Raiders TV network keeps talking up their 2 preseason victories ...

by FSM 8/23/2019 12:06:17 AM
Others not participating... all people that live in Milwaukee, Green Bay, and Oshkosh. Its hard to list everyone, but you came close with that list😎🏈🏈🏈

The link to packernews, with Firefox and adblocker works well for the blog. It blocks the tweets, but oh well.

80 yd field,,,yikes

by Collarbone12 8/23/2019 12:06:30 AM
I hear there's not a lot of fans at the game, but if I was a fan at this game, I'd be pretty upset that no one is playing.

by jmmbass 8/23/2019 12:06:42 AM
No kickoff.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:06:49 AM
Tim Boyle is the starting QB for the Packers.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:07:01 AM
Here we go....

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:07:08 AM
Offensive line from left to right is Alex Light, Cole Madison, Lucas Patrick, Justin McCray and Adam Pankey.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:08:04 AM
Tra Carson is the starting RB and WRs are Trevor Davis and Jake Kumerow.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:08:38 AM
Wow, Boyle looked like he jammed his knee in the turf after slipping and getting hit. It's a late hit on the QB, so first down.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:09:17 AM
Lots of running, which is smart. They might as well establish the run and have some considerable tape to evaluate.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:09:55 AM
My money says this ragged rug business is is all just a scripted "Hard Knocks" subplot.

by Dr. Pack N Stein 8/23/2019 12:10:13 AM
Was THAT a lousy play... they got good news with the defense penalty

by Karen 8/23/2019 12:10:16 AM
Carson quick to the hole, but no YAK

by Collarbone12 8/23/2019 12:10:21 AM
Few starters. Lousy field. Few fans in the stands. Time to open these pre-season games up for free.

by Eric 8/23/2019 12:10:24 AM
How will this work with field goals? I don’t understand

by BabyQB 8/23/2019 12:10:37 AM
Boyle panicked on that screen.

by Pigdog 8/23/2019 12:10:39 AM
Third and 7 for Boyle.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:10:48 AM
Looked like Boyle wanted the back shoulder and ESB ran it down the field.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:11:11 AM
Either way, he had not chance what so ever.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:11:22 AM
Scott with the punt. Everything is a pooch punt on this field.

by Tom Silverstein 8/23/2019 12:11:50 AM
field goals don't change

by PackerSteve 8/23/2019 12:11:56 AM
Tom, the try this link worked for me. All is well in the blog world.

by MJ 8/23/2019 12:12:10 AM
The minute preseason games are free, the owners will cut preseason to zero games

by Matt 8/23/2019 12:12:18 AM
Did anybody actually pay to get into this game?

by Bruggi 8/23/2019 12:12:33 AM
Why dont they just have a rolling clock tonight? Get this over

by What is going on 8/23/2019 12:12:36 AM
Let's put our receivers in motion toward the line before the snap like the Canadians do.

by Eric in California 8/23/2019 12:12:41 AM
That would be awesome!
