The New Orleans Saints will "host" the Green Bay Packers at Jacksonville's TIAA Bank Field on Sunday, Sept. 12, while the city of New Orleans continues to recover from Hurricane Ida.

The NFL announced Jacksonville as the alternate site for the game, which will still kick off at 4:25 p.m. ET as originally scheduled.

I heard this on the radio a bit ago too. I was hoping they were lying. The Packers didn't play starters much and they are not going to have the stamina. And now you put them in the humidity and heat? This is an L.

More than likely there will be as many Packer fans in the stands. Perhaps more.
Saints rested their starters in preseason as well. (Not as much but some) so they won't be in mid season form either.
Let's look at the humidity factor- Green Bay claims to have the advantage in cold weather not it hasn't been as evident since building the indoor practice facility. Even when they "open the doors" during practice it is not the same as the teams in the past who were outside all practice long. The Saints don't practice outside. Now that they are in Jerry World I am not sure where they are practicing but it is not the same as Jacksonville weather. The heat/humidity in Green Bay in early September may not be Florida but it is noticeable. Will it be all that much different? Especially when you factor in the game starting at 4:25 ET. As the game goes on and the stamina wears out, the temps will be dropping.

Packers WIN!

It’s been hot and humid all summer in Wisconsin.
And it will be just as hot and humid for the Saints.
They play in a dome, so it shouldn’t be an advantage for them weather wise.

PACKERS WIN!😁

    beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
    Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.
    Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

    Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
    buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
    buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
    Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

    Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
    dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
    dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
    Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
    Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
    earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
    beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
    dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
    dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
    Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
    Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
    Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
    dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
    dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
