I would like to see a list of ALL Packers/Rams players that are injured and/or on the Covid restricted list. Most of those names and their circumstances however are generally closely guarded secrets.

Injuries, Covid restrictions, the weather, and other things can affect a game. I believe that GB will get the win, but some of these other factors can be interesting stories themselves.

Looking at the weather in Wisconsin days before hand is fruitless. We're one of those places that sometimes shows all four seasons in a 12 hour period. Look it's raining, look it's sunny, look its ... snowing? WTF.

The weather people we have here are horrible. They predict 18" of snow and we get about 4". They say it's gonna be Sunny outside and it's a blizzard. The only way to follow the weather people here is to understand they are predictably unpredictable, lol.

For what it's worth, my phone weather app dealio says it should be 33° around kickoff and 11% of rain with 9mph wind and a wind chill of 25°. I would love some rain because their QB has just one good thumb. Make that ball hard to handle for that punk ass.

Not only is Goff's hand injured. He has tiny hands as well. If it's wet, all the more difficult for him.

The Packers offense has to put pressure on the Rams to force Goff to throw. If the Rams go 2019 49ers on us, he can go Jimmy G's route and only complete six passes and still beat the Packers.

Packers have had this tendency to string three scoring drives together and going into a lull. I think if they do that vs the Rams, that's GOOD NIGHT SISTA.

The point is that LA being a warm weather city, many o the Rams will not be physically or mentally prepared to execute at 100% efficiency. Some players on the Rams will have played before in extreme cold, but for lots it will be a shock that they were not expecting at all.

The Packers too will field players from warmer states, but they have had the last few months to acclimate to the colder playing conditions. Regardless of the sport, if you play outdoors you must be able to deal with the weather. Cold weather will be more of an advantage for the Packers.

I think home field advantage, a lot of it is in the mind.
And that’s okay!
If it makes our guys lift their game even higher, great!
And being as they are FINALLY having several thousand fans to cheer them on, that should also help.
Many of our guys have never even been in Lambeau Field with more then a few hundred fans cheering. So that will be a new thing for them.

In the past those loud fans could turn up or down the volume to their teams advantage. Playing at home, outdoors, in extreme weather remains the only home field advantage this season. It's likely that sports will return to full stadiums, but possibly not even until 2022.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : *years

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Packers introduce 1923-inspired classic uniform, leather-look helmet

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Both LB Quay Walker and Rookie DB Micah Robinson have passed their physicals

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Happy to see site feels more snappy snappy

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : It's funny the PA complained about the locker room. It wasn't that long ago it was top shelf. Things change in a hurry.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
