Domes · PACKERSHOME

My friend brought this up at the start of the game saying Rodgers would suck because he can't play in domes. The only other game he's played in a dome was the Metrodome against the Vikings. So, there's not much to support the claim, but it's still something to look at. I remember I hated being in the metrodome when I saw the Packers beat the Vikings there as a kid (now that was a fun game to wear a green bay jersey too). It was obnoxiously loud.

If I recall the all time greatest QB (IMO) had trouble with domes for his first 10 years too

Look on the bright side you beat the Lions in a dome.

Rodgers and the entire offense were just fine playing in the Superdome in the first half. But once the game got away from them early in the third quarter the Saints were pumped up, and there was no stopping them. I didn't see any sign that the crowd noise was causing problems. The Packers just got spanked, plain and simple.

Agreed. The whole team went flat in the second half. Unfortunately the offense started playing like the defense.

It almost seemed like the Packers switched uniforms with the Saints today. It was plain uncharacteristic of the team. We did decent against the run and downright terrible against the pass. Likewise, our running game was good, but we threw a bunch of picks.

Does anybody think it strange that we look so slow and can't seem to keep our footing in domes? Obviously this is not the biggest thing to talk about, but what the hell? Get the right cleats?

Domes. The Green Bay Packers arch enemy.

I know. If the NFL used leather helmets and games were played on a broken turf with the goalpost in the middle of the endzone, I swear we would be 10 time straight world champions. This wussy modern shite just doesn't work for us.

Agreed. Domes are just retarded. Sucks that 2 teams in the division play in them.

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
