During the "chat" yesterday, a number of us mentioned that we found the defensive squads "group celebrations" on turnovers a bit "over-the-top".

I am not totally changing my option, and I kind of like the fact that it is a group thing...and that they are having fun. I don't think we should underestimate how important it is for player to have fun and enjoy their successes....especially when they are playing in Green Bay.

My problem with the extent and duration of the celebrations, is that they border (if not, they go over the border) of poor sportsmanship. Perhaps I am being a bit of a windsock here, but if it were possible, I would like them to do their thing in front of their teammates, ideally on the bench, not run to the end- zone.

I guess defining too much celebration is like defining obscenity, I can't put it into words, but I know it when I see it....and I am seeing it.

To be perfectly frank, its more important to me that they are doing great and anything they can do to keep that going would be great.

I am not a fan but the NFL Inc softened up the rules last year to allow more of it. Players are simply doing what is allowed. After the poses a few of them ran over to the stands to pump up the crowd. For that reason alone I can tolerate it in a curmudgeon sort of way while mumbling, "Get the hell off my lawn" and shaking my fist.

I see nothing wrong with it. Love the team chemistry. Haven’t seen a Packers team that seemed/felt like this much of a “family” in a long time.

As long as they keep playing well, I don't mind. The defense should celebrate a bit - they have been the key to early success this year.

We haven’t had a defense that had much to celebrate about in a LONG time!
Nice to see they finally do!

At this point, it'd probably be a bad sign if they stopped doing it.

I got to thinking. Watch out!!

If it's our team doing it and we're perturbed by it, imagine how the offense of the other team feels??

I bet the other teams coach is showing their team film 🎞 of it, and telling them to not let them do it!

I love the "fun" this defense is playing the game with... but this photo opt thing... meh.

But if that is what they need to do to keep playing with this chip and intensity... who am I kidding, don't like it. Everything you are doing on defense sans this.. keep. Please.

LAWN. OFF. NOW. 😁
