On August the 10th GB will play it's first Preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lambeau field . Former back-up GB QB and now Head Coach Doug Pederson will lead his Eagles onto his former home ground . It will be a game to evaluate players for both teams and does not count for the reg season record, but it's football and will be most welcome in my house .

I expect to see simple formations / plays as fundamental football will be the word of the day . I still hope to see a few highlight reel plays to spice up the game. A big run , a big pick play, a great kickoff return , etc . would be fun to see . [thumbup]

Perhaps they will have Fireworks following the game .

As for the game , I'll be most interested in the RB's and the CB's performances . It could begin to provide a Gage of GB's on hand talent .

Frickin relax.

Pre-season, going to be a bunch of udfa's and rookies playing against another bunch of udfa's and rookies.
They will be running VANILLA offenses and defenses.
There is no game planning.
The coaches just want to get tape on their guys so they can get them back in the classroom and evaluate.
Any great expectations, especially for the 1st game, is not logical.

Hundley will be a star, because The Packers want to show him off for future trade offers.

Other than that....here's hoping There are no major injuries.

Hell no! Don't relax. If you get amped up over anything, ANYTHING makes you excited, you live that shit up!!!

Preseason is a good chance to see some of the younger guys and for some of them its the only football action they will ever see. I enjoy watching them live their dream.

You are right, Brett Hundley will probably showcased quite a bit. Why risk Aaron Rodgers?

Get amped up to soon and you will be burnt out before the season starts.
You know as well as anyone, what we see in pre-season is not in any way comparable to what is happening at practice.
I am willing to bet that on of the 5 rookie rb's will have a huge impact in a pre-season game and end up getting cut
Should I reference Jarret Bush, Jeff Janis....etc.
Bush showed well in practice, but not so well in pre-season games
More complained about him making the team year after year.
Janis just the opposite.
Great showing in pre-season games, terrible in practice.

So much is going to happen from the start of TC and opening day.
I'll let the coaches do their jobs and get amped when the final 53 come through the tunnel at Lambeau in Sept.

I'm always intrigued by the undrafted rookie(s) that find their way to make the team. I take a look at their story(ies) and see it/them as inspiration. We've got a month so it's time for me to get my life together until then.
Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance
Fan Shout
Martha Careful (47m) : RIP Junior Bridgeman. An excellent businessman and NBA er
Zero2Cool (2h) : It's better to have $17m to use on players who will be on the field. That's why trade/release is talked
Zero2Cool (2h) : post june is $7m cap hit with $17m saving
Zero2Cool (2h) : oops meant $10m cap hit
Zero2Cool (2h) : And pre june is $10m savings
Zero2Cool (2h) : Can't make him play.
dhazer (2h) : I am curious why the big need to release Jaire, we have 29 million cap space we arent spending and would only gain $6 million/ make him play
Zero2Cool (4h) : Joey Bosa signed with Bills?
dfosterf (4h) : What they are offering is a left over case of Leinies from the Chippewa Falls plant
Zero2Cool (4h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 gets you Jaire and our 3rd
Zero2Cool (4h) : they give us those five, or even first four, they can have Jaire.
Zero2Cool (4h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 and 136 are only ones worth having of theirs.
dfosterf (4h) : What they don't have is cap space, at least presently at 5.6 mil
dfosterf (4h) : Poor bastards only have 11
Zero2Cool (4h) : Ravens ain't got crap for picks.
Zero2Cool (4h) : Aaron Rodgers is choosing between Steelers and Giants. The Vikings are officially out on him, per RapSheet
dfosterf (5h) : Current cap space 29.6 million.
dfosterf (5h) : Hobbs 2025 cap hit just under 6 million. Banks 2025 cap hit just over 9 million
Mucky Tundra (11h) : beast, this is news to me! Tell me more about these, "draft picks." They seem mighty mysterious! 😉
beast (13h) : Yes, the Ravens have draft picks
dfosterf (14h) : Good luck to him.
Zero2Cool (15h) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders
Martha Careful (17h) : Tyler Linderbaum C
Mucky Tundra (17h) : Cap space?
Zero2Cool (17h) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?
Mucky Tundra (19h) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason
beast (20h) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false
beast (20h) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least
Zero2Cool (22h) : San Francisco 49ers announced they have released DL Leonard Floyd.
Mucky Tundra (23h) : Er getting traded twice like that
Mucky Tundra (23h) : Huh, LT Laremy Tunsil traded from Houston to Washington. Never heard of a top OT getting traded in his career like that
Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Minnesota Vikings cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. is returning on a three-year, $66 million deal
Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Damn
Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Saints are re-signing DE Chase Young to a three-year, $51 million deal worth up to $57 million.
Martha Careful (11-Mar) : 49ers releasing FB Juszcyk any interest?
Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : digits of four
Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : four digits
Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Eh, don't think so. better to split
Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : on new site, would Fan Shout and GameDay Chat show same messages?
Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : The Hall of Fame stuff probably came from a scout as Zero said; at this point though it's hard to see them moving ZT from RT
Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : Regarding ZT at C, Gute had said he felt C was ZTs best position after he was drafted.
Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.
Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Based on how it was worded at the time, probably scout.
beast (10-Mar) : I don't think the media person ever told the public the source, but Gute or LaFleur did say they thought Tom has earned his spot at OT
beast (10-Mar) : I think it was supposedly unnamed Packers source
buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Was that Gute or Lefleur or someone else?
buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Zach Tom could be a really good guard, an all pro tackle, but probably be a HOF Center. Who said that?
Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : It's March 10th. I don't think anything is done.
Martha Careful (10-Mar) : if we think CB is done, we have a poor roster
Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : CB and OG in FA, narrows down the top of the draft board a little
