Now Seattle fans are just beginning to understand what it felt like for us Packer fans when the team always had to play in Dallas some years back.
Or in Seattle for that matter. We played them 3 times in 3 years out there. It was annoying as hell always having to play them in their house considering their HFA. Now they get a dose of it

Season opener contenders? Seattle is the best available with maybe Detroit the best division game.
Giants are the only playoff team not on the schedule so if we falter we could be the road opponent for that game also.
This of course assumes an NFC team wins the SB.

Thanksgiving at Dullass or Detroit again.


Since we will be playing the first game of the season in Green Bay on Thursday night I predict it will be Seattle because Pittsburgh will not be our opponent in the SB.

They make sure we play seattle every year now lol

That's not how it works. We get Seattle because they won the division. Same with Dallas. Division winners all play each other the following year, and then Detroit plays NYG and Arizona, Minny plays LA and Washington, and Chicago against SF and Philly. Basically, it's each team plays each other in their respective ranking.

On paper this is a tougher schedule than this last year's, but then again paper doesn't mean a whole lot in today's league.

Our two toughest road challenges at this point appear to be Dallas and Pittsburgh. The rest is a crap shoot to guess.

2 games that do concern me a bit are Tampa Bay and Cincinnati. The Bucs always play us tough on defense. Yes even in our 2014 win against them they did cause trouble. It's just that their offense was so inept that year they couldn't score when their defense got stops. They've improved a lot this year and got their 1st winning season in 6 years. They'll probably be getting better in this next year and could even challenge Atlanta for the division. The Bungles too are one of those teams that we always throw stinkers against and I just can't figure out why. They've got one of the worst coaches in football history, yet we always seem to make him look like a genius. Sure hope we come out this time ready to pound the **** out of them.

The truth is not as much fun as the conspiracy theory though.

I believe Cincinnatti is the only team in the NFL that Rodgers has not beaten. He hasn't beaten Pittsburgh in the regular season either but has in a certain post season game six years ago.
