We also faced the Colts at Lambeau Field. I remember the 2nd and 3rd string Green Bay Packers absolutely demolishing their 1st string. The score was 59-21 or something. Even if it was a preseason game, I was very excited, and considering that they won SBXLV with 15 players on IR, it was a preview of things to come.

I don't know why we're facing the exact same opponents as last year though. I'm not exactly keen on the mechanics of preseason scheduling.

I was at that game. :happy0005:

Yes, but we played Seattle instead of AZ.

I wish KC was the 3rd game. It's the most appealing to me, want to see how we handle their speed.

I might be headed to both preseason games...

But that might be a bit much if I go to the HOF game as well

Must get tickets to the colts game...we will be only 1.5 hrs away

I think this is a good line-up; it looks like a good little "test drive" for the season.
This makes me wonder who in the League drew the short straw and ended up being the team that had to go play the Queens in whatever stadium it is in which they finally play.

 

[Helmets]

Which preseason game is for the Green package and which one is for the Gold package?

Oh no!!! The Eagles aren't on the schedule at all this year! I love watching the Packers beat the Eagles! I was hoping we'd get them in preseason.

Are they still doing the SB rematch??? I'm guessing that doesn't count as an official preseason game?

if you want to see the packers beat the eagles you will have to wait for the playoffs (cos the cowboys sure as hell arent gonna play 'em!)

 

[ivo610]

drew, pretty sure ill be going to that game too

I like it. It's a decent lineup for an early test for starters to get back to the game and rookies to learn the game aandr backups to get some good playing time.
