I had no idea you have been here since 2010. Are you on other teams’ boards too?  Gotta be on the Viking Ship, or whatever they call it in Minnesota, amirite?

Most other teams hate the Packers too outside of GB. They don’t welcome Packer fans on their boards.

I wouldn’t have guessed that. I figured the Packers are kind of an institution and universally respected, at least.

ce, I'm going to shoot straight with you for a moment. Please understand that this does not come from a place of malicious intent or with the slightest intent to be rude.

 

This has been tried multiple times during various engagements from different posters with him. You can specifically make it clear in the very first sentence that no ill intentions are meant and put it in all CAPS to be extra clear. Somehow he still manages to act as if he was offended and responds saying that you and everyone here hates him and won't be missed when he leaves.

 

Says that over and over again throughout the thread and will go to a different thread and does same there. That way to make sure as many ppl see as possible. It's like he may be having fun with it lol.

Quote

Packers (3-4) at Bills (5-1)

8:20 p.m. ET | NBC | Spread: BUF -11.5 (47.5)

 

What to watch for: The Packers and Bills enter this game on two different trajectories. Green Bay is on a three-game losing streak, while Buffalo has been one of the best teams in football and is looking for an eighth straight win following the bye week. To come away with an upset win on the road -- the Packers are 11.0-point underdogs, the largest underdog spread in quarterback Aaron Rodgers' career -- the Packers will have to slow down quarterback Josh Allen and the Bills' offense, especially on third down. The Bills lead the league in third down conversion percentage (52.8%) while the Packers' defense is allowing the third-fewest conversions (30%). -- Alaina Getzenberg

 

Bold prediction: Rodgers will finally have a 300-yard passing game. It might be because the Packers are behind from the start, and they have to throw, throw, throw. Or perhaps they've ironed out some of their issues after Rodgers called people out. But look for Rodgers' streak of consecutive games without a 300-yard passing performance to end at 12. -- Rob Demovsky

 

Stat to know: The Bills have held opponents to 21 or fewer points in 10 straight regular-season games, one shy of matching the longest streak in franchise history (1999-2000).

 

What to know for fantasy: Nothing in Green Bay is going great these days, but the elevated floor of Allen Lazard is worth noting: five straight games as a top-30 receiver. See Week 8 rankings. [note: Lazard has been declared OUT]

 

Betting nugget: Buffalo is 4-1-1 ATS and has the largest average cover margin in the league this season (9.92 PPG). Green Bay is 2-5 ATS and has the worst average cover margin in the league this season (minus-7.9 PPG).

 

Moody's pick: Bills 42, Packers 14
Walder's pick: Bills 30, Packers 17
FPI prediction: BUF, 84.8% (by an average of 12.3 points)

Hating the Packers, or any team, is one thing. No one hates their fans if they are as respectful as you have been on here. 

 

Hell,, we even put up with @Zerovoltz. 😆

I think maybe it's more Rodgers instead of Packers in general. Seems like some have just lost some respect for Rodgers over the past couple years.

Hahahaha, the first time I had advance Injury info from a friend who saw a player jogging around his neighborhood with the dog and gave me a heads up on it...

Really? Why is that? The ones I know have been fine to talk football with...

 

Chiefs, Pats and Fins fans?? Forget it.

Most people here enjoy talking to fans of other teams as long as they are respectful and not trolling.

You have been coming here respectful for years and most fans have shown you that respect back.  You are not a troll.  Just stop the oh woe is me attitude and talk some football with us. 

 

I realize your team is in a stinker right now and have our team coming up but your season isnt over man.  Just enjoy the football.  Lots of games left to play.  Lots of mediocre teams out there this year in both the AFC and NFC.  Your team can turn it around anytime.  I think what screwed your team is trading Adams away with nobody in place to take over for him.  I dont understand that move at all after just giving Rodgers another contract.  It never made sense.  You dont give a big contract to a QB on the downside of his career and then act like you are in a rebuild.  This is the time you should be pushing to get that one more before Rodgers is done.

 

Chin up bro. Sometimes teams just have a down year.  I lived 2 decades of them but still watched excited every week.

Nope I bet Bills fans root for the Patriots over the Packers when they play. 

 

Uh no.  A lot of Bills fans had GB as their NFC alternate team.  Rodgers is kind of a dick but that just is what it is.  Almost none of us root for the Pats ever, no matter who they play lol.
