Real Packer Fans Know

             The Packers officially made one move at the trade deadline. Rasul Douglas who has been with the Packers since 2021 after being cut from the Cardinals, has been traded to the Buffalo Bills along with a Packers fifth-round draft. In return, the Packers are receiving the Bills third-round pick in 2024.

Douglas has been a key player for Green Bay’s defense over the past few seasons. He came away with a game-sealing interception against his former team the Cardinals back in 2021 and has grown i...

              We shouldn’t be surprised by what we saw on Sunday at Lambeau Field. The Green Packers are just not a great football team this season. Fingers are being pointed in multiple directions as to the real issue with this team when in reality, it’s everyone’s fault.             It’s hard to watch a team who doesn’t even look like they practice during the week. The offensive unit for the Packers can barely move the football and when they do, it gets called back because of some dumb mistake that is called for a penalty.             The youth of the Packers was showcased heavily again on Sunday. It’s almost as if there are infinite mistakes in every game, from drops to other miscues like holding and running the wrong route. At this point, I think it is safe to say that this is the worst position a quarterback could be in on offense. Jor...

               The Packers host the Minnesota Vikings at Lambeau Field following the Viking’s huge win on Monday night against the San Francisco 49ers. What should we expect from this game?             For starters, it should be noted that the Vikings will again be without superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson who is currently on the injured reserve list with a hamstring injury. This is a big break for the Packers defensively who also have injuries on their side of the ball as well. They most recently just sent Darnell Savage and Eric Stokes to the injured reserve list.                The Packers' injury report to no one’s surprise is once again loaded with key names on both sides of the ball.

              Being a football fan, mixed emotions are guaranteed on any given Sunday while watching your favorite team. This season, it has become pretty apparent with Packer fans, including myself. During the week, keeping a level head and sort of rationality when analyzing the team is pretty easy. But on Sunday, during the action? Hell, all rationality is off the table.             Why is it that we as fans act this way? It’s quite simple actually. The love a diehard fan shares for their team is almost unconditional. The ability to be rational during the week is a testament to how much they care after unloading on their favorite team following a loss.             For example, the Packers may be struggling right now and look bad. During the week, I will analyze and suspect what should reasonably happen before the game starts. But on Sunday du...

              Whelp, the Packers have officially hit rock bottom this season after losing to the Denver Broncos.             This game was frustrating to watch for multiple reasons, and there are so many aspects to point out what really went wrong. Some may say the play calling from Matt LaFleur cost the game, or Jordan Love’s decision-making, but what about the offensive line, and the game plan going into the game? The list of reasons is ongoing, but it’s a collection of all those things that this team has struggled with so far this season.             As real Packer fans, it is time that we face reality, and the reality is, this team is not great. Yes, the expectations were not high going into this season, but as a young and growing team, these are games that you have to win to show that growth. Hand up, I thought maybe this team could be...

              We’ve finally made it!  It has felt like an eternity, but the Packers finally get to play a football game this Sunday against the Denver Broncos. What should we expect?             The Packers are coming off a bye following their disgusting loss on Monday Night Football against the Las Vegas Raiders. Matt LaFleur and company have had a lot of time to sit on that loss and learn from the previous mistakes they’ve made so far this season.             But come Sunday against Denver, it is no doubt a must-win game for the Packers.             The Packers have had a long time to get healthy following the long weeks in between games and also the bye week. The return of Aaron Jones is going to impact the team enormously. Against the Raiders the running game was alive and th...

              We’ve officially hit week six of the NFL season and the question remains, where do the Green Bay Packers stand in the north?             Obviously, you have to start with the Detroit Lions. They come in through six weeks at 5-1, leading the NFC North comfortably following a road win against the Tampa Bay Bucs. The Lions have shown they are definitely the team to beat in the north, as Jordan Love said in his post-game presser following the fat L the Packers took against them. Jordan Love on if the Lions are the team to beat now in the NFC North: “Yeah, for sure. It was us and them going into this game.” pic.twitter.com/S7Uf77J3V8 — Rob Demovsky (@RobDemovsky) September 29, 2023             Heading in a completely different direction than the Lions, the Chicago Bears are undoubtedly at the bottom of the north and the NFL.
