If Brent is playing, @Vikings will be our toughest game this year.

I agree that the patriots will be tough as well.

Which regular season opponent will be our toughest this year (and why)?

da Bears. It won't be easy to hang onto all the INTs Cutler throws at us.

In all seriousness, I think the Pats and the Vikings. The Pats because they're either going to surprise everyone and dominate the AFC, or they'll fall flat on their faces. I don't think there will be a middle ground this year with the Pats.

The Vikings only if it's with Brett. Without Brett, we sweep 'em by simply putting 8 men in the box and stuffing AP. The Vikings D won't be able to stop us from scoring 23+ points and I don't think TJ or Sage will get 23+ points on us.

I'm always worried about the Lions, Rockmolder. We've played some heartbreaking Thanksgiving games against them. The Packers seem to have a penchant for losing the games they really should win.

I don't think the Pats will be the toughest opponent. I live in Maine and see a lot of Pats games, and they're definitely not the team they used to be. I am going to Packers @ Pats, so I hope I'm right haha.

The tough opponent will be Minnesota if (when) Brett comes back. No explanation necessary.

No one said Eagles.

Friggin' Kolb looks good. Real good.

Consider it a warning. We are in for a dog fight our very first game.

I have a case of that Peroni - whatever-the Italian brew-- if we lose vs. my Franziskaner if we win riding on that game.

My next door neighbor is putting a big screen against the lattice under his deck so that we can watch it from the pool...

This is a pre-emptive move to keep us from burning down our respective homes (fireworks) when one or the other team scores, etc.

I'm not saying this is our toughest opponent, but I will say I am not going to be AT ALL surprised to be 0-1.

I'm going to go with Philadelphia because of their defense more so than their offense. I am really nervous about the speed of Trent Cole on the edges with this game.

I will also say Falcons. Reason--away game and its after an away game with the Vikings.

You guys ever see this new thing they have on nfl.com (its new to me). Its pretty sweet.

If Favre plays.... the Vikings, they have a good club, if he doesnt, they wont be too tough and I'm not big on playing the Bears this season, they could be better than expected

Any division game is dangerous. Regardless of who has a better team. I think the Packers have the best team in the Division, but the best team doesn't always win.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

beast (6h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (10h) : meh

Zero2Cool (14h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (14h) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (14h) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (17h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (17h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (20h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
