2023 Green Bay Packers Vs. New Orlean Saints Official Game Thread

Hey, nothing new from me, I WANT A CRUSHING……Aint’s  10 vs.  GBP  28

♥️ 💚 💛

For those looking for a stream:

Go to https://www.nflbite.com. They will list a number of streams for each game, which usually go live about 15 minutes or so before kickoff. I usually pick amongst the first one to three links listed and give them a test run before KO. Be patient with pop-ups, there are always 3 or 4 in sequence while you are trying to “turn on” the video.

If he's not active today, I'd imagine 33 is ready on Thursday. He's movin' well.

They’re all out….Bak, Watson, Jones,  AND Alexander!!!!!   🤬 🤬 🤬

@RapSheet: Brutal actives/inactives for #Packers: RB Aaron Jones, LT David Bakhtiari, WR Christian Watson, and CB Jaire Alexander are all down.

From packers.com:

Well fuck...sorry

They will be back for the division game on Thursday.

Absolutely brutal inactive list.

This is the first time in about 20 years that I won't have access to the Packers game through Sunday Ticket.  Time to risk a virus from fooling around with illegal streams. 

Watson again?  JFC the guy is out almost as much as he plays.  

It appears 69 will never be the same

Arguably the four best players on the team out today.  Bak isn’t surprising…he hasn’t been right since surgery and this will likely be his last season.

I’ve about given up on Glass Joe Watson too.  You can’t be the fastest guy on the field when you’re never on the field.

Here’s to another afternoon of watching Dillon tripping all over himself.

5 of their best players won’t suit up today.  That’s not good.

If there is positive news it’s more reps for Wicks and Reed.  Watson needs to figure out a way to stay out of the trainers room. I don’t care if he runs a 4.3 it means nothing if he’s always hurt.

Maybe they should have traded him for Jonathan Taylor.

Might want to reconsider trading Watson for Jonathan Taylor if the guy can never play. Very frustrating.

Trading Watson for Taylor is starting to look like a good deal for the Pack, The dude is great but he cannot stay HEALTHY.

I get what Bakh's getting paid, but if GB believes Walker is the future at LT, then just make him the starter and move 69 to a back up role. This is a rebuild year whether GB wants to admit it or not.

Consistency and continuity matters on a teams OL. It just does. Playing the "will he or won't he" game with Bakh has gotten way old.

that’s it. the season’s over.

IMO, MLF is saving these guys for Thursday. Including Jaire

Guess we'll find out

I agree, I was looking forward to this game hoping we would at least have AJ, but damn! What is Alexander's injury? did his ego get bruised because he was god-awful last week? lol.  I guess next man up! Go pack go!

Agreed.

Well we've always got a chance to win if we've got Aar, err, ah  Jordan Love.

I was surprised when I saw that Watson only missed 3 games last year. Matched that already .

The pre game ( radio) Packer network suggested that too.

Sorry to disappoint the Eeyore's but we ain't losing at home today...

100% this.  Game vs DET is more important than this one.  Hard enough for healthy guys to play Thurs games, let alone guys coming off injury.

It’s good for the backups to get some reps and will be valuable later on. IF we lose it won’t be Jordan’s fault. All offseason the talk about Love and questions about his play has now taken a back seat to the rest of the team.

It’s been said before but the NFL needs to allow teams to expand their active rosters and extend the trade deadline.  Every week it’s a who’s who list of guys that are hurt and there’s only so much “next man up” when dealing with 53 slots.

Back injury for Alexander. I wonder if it happened against the Falcons? As far as the division stats I would rather have them ready for Thursday. I know it sucks but they got to prioritize when dealing with nagging injuries.

That's why being a traditionalist and a midwesterner Ive always just stuck with missionary. Always probable.

MLF understands that the game on Thursday could determine the division winner and he's just prioritizing that game.

Thanks funny guy.

With Watson continually out I've been waiting for a Malik Heath break out game. Today maybe?

Is Joe Barry on the inactive list?

Speaking of Joe Berry, watching college football all day long yesterday along with WI, I cannot believe some of the horrible Defensive play-calling all day long, topped off the Buckeye/fightin' Irish game, where the Irish D let them march on that last drive.

Just wondering if the rules are THAT skewed to the Offense or just there are so many crappy defensive play callers out there, both college ranks as well as NFL.

If only. Packers overcome all of the injuries and find a way to eke out a 16-13 win as time expires. Valentine, Heath, Newman, and Emanuel Wilson all make some contributions today.
