Title: Schedule for next year
Post by: Arodgers12 on January 04, 2024, 08:46:53 AM
I realize if we lose Sunday we probably finish 3rd place in the division and we would play the 3rd place team in the NFC East which is you guys in NY again next year. I hope we win Sunday so we can avoid playing the Giants again next year lol. You guys always beat us there and in Lambeau. If we do make the playoffs will you guys actually pull for us?

Against Dallas and Philli that's a hard yes.
Once they're out, my playoff rooting is fluid.

I certainly wouldn't root against the Packers in the playoffs, but I'm rooting for the Lions this year in the NFC. I like Campbell a lot, and they're a team and fan base that has had as much suffering as anyone in the history of the league. Not to mention that city has been through a lot. Hard not to pull for them. But I respect the Packers franchise plenty so if they  were to get in I wouldn't be rooting against them in any game other than if they played Detroit.

Im rooting for the Raiders and Antonio Pierce

I was not a huge fan of him as a player but his stepping into the HC position seems like his destiny fulfilled

My ideal scenario would be a Detroit/Cleveland SB, as has been said, two fanbases who deserve it.
Having said that, I think Baltimore have got hot at the right time in the AFC and will go the distance (Lamar/January though).
NFC is quite open I'd say, and as long as Dallas and Philli fail early I'll be content.
Would like to see Detroit go on a run but SF on their day are good......but can be flawed generally.

Prior to acquiring Watson I would agree with this. Even though he is injured I just can't get behind the Brown and what their owner did. So I am all in on a Lions-Bills SB. Bills have almost the same years of a title drought as Cleveland.

At the end of the day, I'm putting my affiliation with the locals here which are pulling for Brock Purdy to go the distance with the 49ers. A rematch with Baltimore is the best Super Bowl scenario, in my opinion, which will deliver an amazing performance. I want to see Mr. Irrelevant hold up the Lombardi Trophy.

Peace!

Aye, the Watson nonsense made them a bit toxic.
But I'm not sure  the fan base ever collectively got on board with the move (though I could be wrong on that).

The add-on of Watson is an understandable reason to not be able to pull for the Browns. I fully get that.

For me it's more about their fan base. But I can understand anyone not wanting to get behind them due to Watson alone. He is clearly a bad guy.

Live just north of madison 

Packers culture and Packer fans are as solid and classy as they get.  

Love going to Lambeau to watch the Giants beat the Packers

Lets be clear. The Browns fans are all in on Watson. They have been in QB hell since Bernie Kosar. I can't cheer them on. It's also about Jimmy Haslam. He doesn't deserve anything.

Right now Browns fans aren't even thinking about Watson. They're all-in on Flacco. He is the big story there right now, not Watson. And he's a very easy guy for me to root for.

Well Flacco already has a ring. Allen, Tua, Jackson and Lawrence do not.

You seem like a nice guy but I just cannot root for the Packers. They broke my heart as a young boy (61 & 62) and I will never forgive them  :D
