I mean I get it if you really wanted someone else. I can understand being disappointed, but still the over all picture needs to be addressed. This organization woke up, and made major changes in the prime of their HOF QBs career. That is awesome. There were people who thought if we ran the table again that Dom might not even be fired. You went from talk of it all being the same to some major changes. This is an exciting time to be a Packers fan. Take a minute to enjoy it. I might have said this before but we should all look at losing Aaron last season as a blessing in disguise. Had we made the playoffs this year our D still isn't good enough to get us to the SB. This year Rodgers couldn't camouflage all of our shortcomings. Perhaps now with all of these changes 2018 and beyond might be a lot of fun for all of us.

That could be a sneaky good move if the comments Jim Leonhard made recently to Wilde and Taush are anything more than saying good things about an old friend. Either way, it really gives me hope this defense will finally be strategically deployed each week based on the strengths of the Defense and the weaknesses of the offense we're playing. Either we didn't have players capable of praying on weak points in an offense the last few years, or we weren't honing in on those areas.

packfanfb Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 No London game this year for Packers. Thought the LA game may be a possibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish the NFL would scrap this whole notion of London games/a franchise altogether. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 The NFL will need some added revenue when the networks comes back for refunds in the next contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packer_ESP Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 As a Spanish fan, that's a bummer. I know it sucks for you but I'm really hopeful they'll cross the pond one year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Oh, Packer_ESP the NFL will have many games and maybe some day teams in Europe because they will need it for the revenue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans in Europe already have allegiances with established teams so the only way a franchise might work is if they move an existing team there. Because of the growing population in Florida they thought the state could support 3 teams. But they didn't consider that a large portion of the population here are folks from someplace else and bring their fan allegiances down with them too. If you watched the Jags playoff game you heard larger cheers for the Bills than you did for the home team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love a chance to see the Packers in London (one of their away games, that is). Been waiting several years for it to happen. I've seen some other teams at Wembley stadium (wen't with a mate who is a 49ers fan, for example), but it's not the same as seeing your 'own' team.
