But ILB aren't important.
Despite their record, the Colts are relatively untested against HOF QB/receiver combos alongside a solid run game. The Packers offense should put up at least 34.
The only questions are which Rainbow Ball Rivers shows up and how our defense fairs.
Encouraging news. 👍 https://t.co/wmZwQeU1Y7

Stepaniak was one of the few picks I liked in April’s draft. Tough SOB. Think of him as a more talented version of Lucas Patrick. Look for him to compete for a starting job next summer. https://t.co/mufxKiHRkZ

Found on the internet: The Colts own the Titans. They've now won 20 of the last 24 games against their division rivals, and Thursday night's 34-17 conquest painted Indianapolis as the more balanced, better team. The game will be remembered for the Titans' special teams explosion (or was it a Colts implosion?): three huge plays -- shanked punt, blocked punt for touchdown, missed field-goal try -- which turned a nail-biter into a laugher in the span of 30 minutes. The Colts got a hugely encouraging performance from running back Nyheim Hines, who had 115 yards from scrimmage with two touchdowns. Marlon Mack's season-ending injury and the struggles of rookie Jonathan Taylor left a significant void in this offense -- perhaps Hines can become the answer in the backfield.

I feel bad for @FinnLander, who is out that way IIRC.
I like our offense in a dome. Any dome. Any time.
Based upon that map, I declare Indy “America’s Team”

Who'd a thunk Texas, ND & SD would flip blue. Crazy.
I also like the Packer offense in a dome. No question

What about our defense?
Saw on Yahoo Adams is now questionable and might not be able to go?

Can anyone explain why western and NW wisconsin get blacked out of games...seems absurd. Also, visiting my mom in Central Wisconsin and they had the star trib for sale, but no journal available. Wth?
Interesting that this is the second time this season the Packers get a team coming off of their mini-bye. The Packers also got the Vikings off their full bye and will get the bears off of theirs.
Wellll.....Teams generally need 2 weeks to prepare for the Mighty Green Bay Packers

It really is. Especially when the vikings are on Fox and the Packers are to be aired on CBS, etc., and the CBS affiliate in MN buys the rights to the Packers' game and shows an infomercial, instead of the game. I think MN media outlets are being vindictive towards Packers' fans for all the years the vikings games were blacked out, due to them not selling out the Humphrey Metrodome. Nice fan base, there!
Isn't it a NFL policy to protect the local team in their TV market?

Eau Claire, WI is outside the vikings viewing area,of influence, yet EC/LaCrosse affiliate stations will air both Packers and vikings games, if they are on opposite networks. It's all about the cable exclusivity rule that went into effect about 20 years ago. MN claims western Wisconsin as being part of their metro area, so they dictate to us what we can watch, unless you have a satellite dish, and even then, they make you buy the MN satellite package, so their media is watched. Radio Shack, in western WI used to sell WI satellite boxes,with WI programming in them , but they went out of business a few years back. Where I live, my town/village had to cut a deal with King Video Cable, which was bought out by Comcast, in order to get Wisconsin newscasts, at the news hours, and Wisconsin Public Television out of Menomonie. We complained about it, a lot, but nothing changes, as you can see here. There is a Wisconsin based cable company out of Baldwin, WI that carries the Wisconsin cable line up we need, and many homes have access to it in my area, but they haven't been allowed into my village, as of yet. That cable outlet gets all the Eau Claire stations' affiliates, but Eau Claire doesn't have a CBS affiliate. LaCrosse does have a CBS affiliate, but they are too far away, to be in our cable line up, so we are forced to use the MN local CBS affiliate, once again, in our cable line up. I should switch cable to a satellite system, but from what I've read here, I may be at the mercy of the satellite companies when it comes to football broadcasts and in receiving any Wisconsin programming. One hope is that there was legislation being made, a couple of years ago, that would force the cable companies to broadcast Wisconsin sports and news programs over that cable companies line up. It seems that all the MN cable companies would have to do, is to add Fox Sports-Wisconsin and WPT to their lineups. That legislation went nowhere. GO PACK, GO!!!
@Pikes Peak posted:Isn't it a NFL policy to protect the local team in their TV market?
Yes, legislation was passed, to that effect. That legislation, the NFL and vikings dickhead management, also allowed the vikings to force Packers fans into buying tickets for the next vikings home game, if those Packers fans wanted to watch the Packers play the vikings in the Metrodome, in Mpls. That was just so they could sell out that game, as well, because the Packers fans came to MN in a G&G wave and could have outnumbered the vikings fans, in attendance. Pathetic vikings fans. If it weren't for Packers fans and Pillsbury, 3M and maybe General Mills, buying up the empty seats, there may not have been a single viking home game aired, at the Metrodome, during that time.
For only the second time this year, we go into the game as an underdog.
Last time it happened? Saints.
Second straight day that Davante Adams (ankle) went through stretch but then didn't go outside for drills. Packers listed him as limited yesterday so he must've done something.

#Packers practice: Davante Adams still just working out on the side, but E. St. Brown and Darrius Shepherd return. Also, DB Will Redmond is back. Tyler Ervin, Montravius Adams still sidelined.

Monty Adams is Kevin King 2.0 health-wise. But at least King is good when he plays.
Adams on the other hand.. 
Might need to restructure Davante's contract. As good as he is, he sure gets dinged up a lot.

Get a ROKU. You can watch out of market games on Hulu, YouTube TV, ESPN and others that carry some games.

I only worry about Friday practices. Let's see if h'es a full go today
So, there is an option? Who knew.
I haven't lived in the Packer tv market for 40 yrs. Have missed very few games (other than family stuff or weather) in all that time. I have used bars, friends houses, the Ticket and even streaming a couple of times.
@Boris posted:I only worry about Friday practices. Let's see if h'es a full go today
From reports, it appears that it's a matter of Davante's pain tolerance if he plays Sunday. Unlike his hamstring, which can worsen if he played on it, apparently this is more whether he can gut through the pain in the ankle.
Adams heavily relies on his route running and cutting in and out as part of his game. They may just be keeping him out of practice to rest the ankle as much as they can.
I go back to what Jennings said last week. Favre told him an "80 percent" Jennings was better then some the other WR's who were 100 percent on the field.
Hopefully 17 can just gut it out.
Give it a go. Maybe you don't finish the game or maybe you are a glorified decoy most of the time but it's better than being on the sideline.
Organization is extremely cautious/conservative with injuries. Doubt he goes if they feel the possibility of aggravating it and keeping him out longer exists.
I don't think GB allows their players to "gut it out." You stub your fucking toe and you're not playing. I miss the days when tough guys played this game.
