The Lambeau Field advantage ended in January 2002, when Michael Vick turned the place into his own personal playground. I'm still waiting for it to come back. Maybe it never will. Almost every time the Packers play a home game the announcers talk about how much opposing teams love to play here because of all the history. They even seem to enjoy the cold weather more than the Packer players do. I think the Packers actually play worse at home now than they do on the road. It's a shame because the fans are still great. I've been there.

To think that between 1995 and 1998 we had a 25-game home winning streak . . . second only to the 1971-1974 Dolphins' 27-game home winning streak. I remember hearing Jim Rome say on his talk show, "No one can come into Lambeau and win."

Seems like ancient history now.

When you have a great team, home field advantage really shows up.
We haven't been "great" for several years now.

The Packers practice indoors almost all the time.

They are an indoor team that is at a disadvantage at home.

If they didn't use heaters and warmed benches their opponents would not be allowed them either.

The team just doesn't care about home field anymore.

Interesting you should say this, CaliforniaCheez. I was just talking to my wife about this before the game. It's ridiculous to prattle on about the Packers being a cold-weather team when they practice almost exclusively indoors. If anything, they're at a disadvantage when they step onto the field because they're no more used to the cold than their opponents.

If the Packers organization wants to return the formidable homefield advantage to Lambeau Field that it enjoyed in the 1990s, the team needs to start doing regular cold-weather training. Until that happens, the Lambeau Field mystique is a load of bollocks.

there was a piece on packers.com last week about McCarthy wanting an outdoor practice field that was heated, so the ground didn't freeze. I guess that would help. maybe. who the hell knows.
