So, I was at the Panthers game on Sunday and was very impressed by our fans. Even in the first quarter when Carolina had the ball, the crowd was very LOUD. And it continued the entire game and even elevated in the fourth quarter’s final drive. So, my question to you is…how did the crowd rate this game? Has it been even crazier in other games?
I thought the Lambeau crowd was great, especially after such a lengthy stretch of road games and the bye week.
Any insight as to why Daniel Whelan helps on windy kickoffs? I get the familiarity being the holder, but wouldn’t a defender more fleet of foot with tackling ability be more suited to help during a return?
With the recent rule changes, an additional player is allowed to hold for the kicker but must leave the field of play after the ball is kicked.
Oh my God, I just finished reading Monday’s column and noticed three questions were submitted by gentleman named Ben. If I had a question submitted and answered, we might’ve had a new record. Anyway, simple question here. Where do the Packers go from here? All three phases of the game were terrible. Please show me the light at the end of the tunnel.
As I sit here today, I don’t know that answer. Really, it’s up to those players and coaches to decide. The Packers wrap up against the NFC East over the next two weeks before diving into the heart of their divisional slate. It’s time to go.
Congratulations to Tramon and Big Earl! Some real happy news in the middle of a sad few days. Is it just me, or does it seem like these guys played, like, yesterday?
The Tramon Williams one hit home for me because I didn’t realize he’d already been retired four years. Congratulations to a pair of deserving legends. Spoff and I will have more on both players later this morning on packers.com.
Let’s get that campaign running. Spoff/Hod 2028! I just might have to make a shirt.

Gentlemen, there are few things I enjoy more than coming into the stadium and seeing the beautiful natural grass with the iconic Packers green and gold uniform. It’s honestly a letdown to see the throwback brown and blue. Is it an NFL policy that each team must use a throwback uniform? It feels that they don’t play as well in them. Do you know their blue-and-brown uniform record?
The throwback unis drawing the ire of Monday morning quarterbacks was one fallout from Sunday’s loss that I did not expect.
I just want to say, after Sunday’s game, I really feel for you two and all the B.S. you’re going to get from all the fans who want the team to be playing their best ball BEFORE the end of the season and going into the playoffs. I get it, it sucks, but never a loss, always a lesson. GPG
It’s only a loss if you don’t learn from it. But the NFC is gonna be tight this year. Green Bay’s gotta start stacking. You lost this one. Can you get one back against a better Eagles team?
To tweak a Madden quote, “If you have two kickers, you have no kickers.” Choose a kicker and let’s move on.
I’ve personally been waiting for the trading deadline, which is now only a few hours away.
Given the health of the roster took a setback, the 53-man roster plus practice squad is still in a solid place. The win-loss record is not dictating any immediate games as “must-win.” The QB, albeit making some questionable throws, is capable of hitting the big throws. A vast majority of the roster has playoff experience. Take this loss on the chin and prepare for the Eagles. There’s a lot of football left, and the Pack is a threat to any opponent.
That’s the one thing for sure about the 2025 Packers is they can beat anybody. It’s just that other part of equation they’re still working on.

Wes, Vic had a knack of saying something after a Packer loss that always made me feel better, e.g. the Seattle and 49er playoff losses. Can you tap into your inner Vic and ease my disappointment after that debacle on Sunday?
I don’t fancy myself the wordsmith Vic was in this space, but this feels like an inflection point for Green Bay. Speed up or slow down. Follow or fade. Fortunately, Monday Night Football is on deck and statement win over the Eagles under the primetime lights would quickly right the sails.
