    Well I actually get to see them play this week. Direct TV gave me NFL Redzone for free through the season.? 

    But since it's Dallas I get the entire game Sunday on Fox.

    Browns -2.5 

    Dallas is using that as bulletin board material. Granted, the home team gets 3 points for being at home, so this is really a pick'em game, but Dallas feels slighted nonetheless.

    Browns need to get this one. Get the season started on a positive note.

    Dude, we lose opening games with experience and dignity and grace. I might be lying about the dignity and grace parts. But the experience part, we got some well tanned hinds there. 

    Any team we play the first game might as well have a 12 point advantage. We know what we’re up against.

    That's sad but even sadder is the NFL experimenting while trying to to make more dough.

    Is it true neither team can wear green, due to gang violence down there?

    It's looking like the game will not be moved. As long as the air quality in the area doesn't worsen by Friday, the game will be played in Brazil as scheduled. 

    No, the rumor of both teams not being able to wear green is not true. The Packers will be wearing their green jerseys. The Eagles are choosing to wear black helmets, white jerseys, and black pants, but not because they can't wear green. There were also rumors that fans of the Packers and Eagles can't wear green in the stadium because the Corinthians have a soccer archrival that wears green. Packers and Eagles fans can indeed wear green to the game.

    The Packers are actually the most popular NFL team in Brazil.

    Everyone couldn't care less what Slay is whining about. The Packers will be there and he wants no part of that. He is having flashbacks to his Lions days when the Packers were his daddy. Who would cry like that when they should be focused on football? Why was he thinking about bringing his family to Brazil? He is going there to play a football game. It's a business trip, not a vacation.

    You don't see the Packers whining.

    "Uh oh." That is what the Eagles are thinking about facing the Packers in Brazil. ?

    Yes & no lol. Our fandom sometimes forgets to look at the big picture- safety is truly of utmost importance.

    That's why I won't ever go to a game in Pittsburgh. 

    Pittsburgh is a fine city with great people, but for 3-3.5 hours a year when the Browns visit, it's not. To be fair, some fans from there feel the same way about CLE.

    I've bowled in tournaments in The Netherlands, Ireland, Spain, & China. All positive experiences but you can't help but think " are my wife and I going to be ok?" It's just part of human nature, wanting to be safe

    Well yeah, but the whole "Brazil has nothing but gangs and crime" is ridiculous. The "crime" in Brazil is being way overblown. 

    I mean, yes there are parts of cities in Brazil you shouldn't walk by yourself at night. Just like there are parts of nearly every major city in the U.S. where you shouldn't walk alone at night.

    I have been to Brazil, there are many amazing parts of the country. Also amazing parts of São Paulo where the game is being played. I prefer Rio to Sãu Paulo, but both are worth a visit.

    The most dangerous thing about Brazil right now is the air quality because of the wildfires. It sounds like even that is down to acceptable levels now. 

    Just as an aside(the women of Brazil are among the most beautiful in the world.)

    Should be a great game. The Packers are thinking only about beating the Eagles. Bringing back that dub.

    Wanna lay some money on Josh Jacobs having the better game? You can pay me on Zelle after the game. You decide the amount, I don't know your level of confidence in Saquon or the Eagles. Seems like just bluster because a Packers fan is here.

    And we haven't even talked about new DC Jeff Hafley and his defense. 7 first round picks in the starting 11 on D.

    Having a good deal of familiarity with Hafley's designs from his time with the country 3 at tOSU, and being pretty versed in what Coach Fangio does, Jacobs having a better game than Quon, in terms of rushing stats, wouldn't be all that surprising.  Coach Vic really loves setting then bringing his Dbs at/from depth into the run fit.  Tends to make coaches play patient.  But there is a part of me wondering if young Lefleur has that level of patience within him. 

    On the flip side, a lot of Hafley's single high designs have long drawn counters, especially by teams that can run the rock, work ball action to invite downhill while working vertical.  And the Packers DBs, outside of McDuffie, aren't particularly tall.

    I think you mean Xavier McKinney, one of the Packers safeties. McDuffie is a LB. 

    I don't think height of DBs will decide this game or really matters if they can play. But the smallest DBs on the Packers are 5'11", and 5'10(Jaire Alexander, one of the best CBs in the league.) And CB Eric Stokes is 6'1 and McKinney is 6'0.  I'll take the Packers DBs over the Eagles. Philly's DBs are suspect. Mitchell is a rook that J-Love will torch.

    LaFleur is about balance. Isn't like LaFleur runs a pass happy offense.

    The game has passed Fangio by. This is why he has had to move around so much the last 5 years.

    Did I mention I have Dallas winning?? Nothing against the Browns, but I don't see them beating the Cowboys out the gate in 2024.

    I like the Packers straight up with one of my upsets this week.  I think they will get better QB play.  And Against the spread as favorites the Eagles ended the year poorly while the Packers were great in that spot.  New year though- but i expect the Packers to continue this trend.
