per the radio this morning, they want it to be a Sunday night game too...  and radio guys figure it'll be the bears.   I hate night games to open the season, especially if it's a beautiful sunny day....

- it can't be the queens

Oh how sweet it would be to host the Vikings on the opener.  

Can't. They're opening season vs. Eagles already.

Hope it's not the Bears.

If it must be in division, Lions. 

I'd prefer it vs. the Niners, Falcons or  Cards honestly. Or 1 of the AFC teams

Can't miss a marketing opportunity like that ^^. Gotta be Chicago. Great storyline about how Rodgers came back from earlier collarbone to beat them in 2013 and send GB to playoffs for fifth year in a row. If it is the Bears, you can bet that 2013 game would be mentioned a bazillion times.

Any decent broadcast would break open the film vault and show a lot of Vince and Papa Bear, those great 60's teams, and HoF players all over the field. The story about how Halas quietly did things to keep the Packers in Green Bay and a viable franchise never gets old, either.

I hope the Packers come out with a 100th anniversary jersey ala when they did their 75th. I'll be purchasing of one of those babies if they did...

Maybe Suicide Prevention will sponsor Viking playoff games. 

Seriously. Get this ****ing **** stirring moron the **** off this site. 

My appointed admin isn't doing his job keeping the riff Raff outta the other threads except the Viking Sucks thread.

I'd give the job to you but you might end up deleting most of the threads. 😃

I could use the help.  Just cleaning up the FA thread was a full time job.  

By the way, I didn't ask for this job, but I am willing to do it.  I do have to take care of my real job and family though.

I don't see a problem here.  Teams trade everything else in the NFL; players, draft picks, play books, deflated footballs, etc.  They could trade home openers too - right? 

For Season 100, the Packers opened and are still at 9/1 for Super Bowl 53 at the Wynn, just behind the Eagles who are at 7/1. I think a lot of people forget the Packers were 4-1 through Week 5 and don’t remember the 4th quarter against the Cowboys  

I think I’ll throw down on it and see how it goes. Weird they don’t have a book for the NFC Championship.

Tony Romo: Packers more improved than any other team this offseason

Tony Romo will be calling Super Bowl LIII in Atlanta for CBS at the end of the 2018 regular season and it sounds like he has an idea about an NFC team that could be there for the game.

Romo was in his home state of Wisconsin for his annual football camp last week and was asked about a team he thinks is poised for success this season. The answer made the local crowd happy as Romo said he thinks the Packers “are the team to beat” if their offseason moves in the secondary pay off.

Romo also liked the team’s biggest move on the offensive side of the ball.

“I think the Packers probably got better maybe more than any team I saw this offseason,” Romo said, via WTMJ. “It’s too early, injuries happen and things can happen, but, right now, they’re right at the top for me as far as a team you wouldn’t want to see in the playoffs. The Jimmy Graham thing is a big deal. People don’t understand. You’re going to see old school Jimmy Graham. When you pair him with Aaron Rodgers, you’re going to see a little bit of a different animal. In the red zone, that will be almost unstoppable.”

Romo wasn’t cheered a lot in Green Bay when he was playing for the Cowboys, but Packers fans will be rooting for him to be proven correct on this one.
