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-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.
beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time
Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53
Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before
beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season
beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine
Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder
Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in
Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round
