Looks like my Gold package tickets are Patriots and Cowboys, both 3:25 games. Perfect.

Reportedly the London game doesn't count so it's New England and Tennessee on Thursday Night

Crap, you're right.

Barnwell prediction

WR Odell Beckham Jr. to the Green Bay Packers

Let's hit one more receiver. Beckham is recovering from a torn ACL in his left knee suffered during the Super Bowl, so while anything's possible, it would be a surprise if the 29-year-old were ready to start the 2022 season. Realistically, any organization acquiring Beckham would expect to place the former Giants star on the physically unable to perform list to start the campaign before working him into the lineup during the second half of the year.

If any organization can afford to be patient, it's the Packers, given that Green Bay is the prohibitive favorite to win its fourth straight NFC North title. Nobody can afford to sleepwalk through the regular season, but the Packers have a clearer path to the postseason than most, and it's easier for them to justify adding Beckham now, even while knowing that they may not get much out of him until Halloween.

If Beckham can be the guy we saw for the Rams during this past postseason by the time we get to the playoffs, that would be worth what the Packers are likely to pay. Green Bay is currently set to earn a fifth-round compensatory pick for losing receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling to the Chiefs, and it would now be able to sign Beckham without jeopardizing that selection.

Beckham was reportedly considering the Packers before joining the Rams last year, and while things worked out very well in Los Angeles, the circumstances have changed. The Rams have replaced Robert Woods with a big-ticket investment in Allen Robinson II. The Packers, meanwhile, suddenly lack a No. 1 wideout after dealing Davante Adams to the Raiders. Green Bay did draft Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs in the second and fourth round, respectively, but Beckham would get a chance to be a true WR1 with a great quarterback if he joined the Packers this time around. That opportunity just doesn't exist anywhere else, and Beckham's best chance of earning a significant contract in 2023 is to excel with the Packers in 2022.

A year too late.

I've also seen Rappaport's hot take that Julio Jones is the last guy to bring on board. Of course Jones is linked to every team from the Brewers to Manchester United at this point....

Yep. We got completely screwed by that stupid London game. Garbage. I'd sit here and blame it on globalism for a half hour, but nah, I'll just stop right here.

[Daver]

Such a late bye week hope they are relatively healthy till then food god thats late

[Daver]

Can i assume the gmen game is a home game for us

Can i assume the gmen game is a home game for us

Yes. And we had the option of having our bye the week after the London game but MLF wanted a late season bye.

[Ron Swanson]

Love the late bye-week. Early bye weeks suck.

[BUCKnation]

Seems like a very tough schedule. LA, Dallas, Buffalo and Tampa. Eagles, Tenn and maybe Miami will be tough too.

[DrWood]

Jarvis Landry signed with N.O. I don't know if the Packers had any real interest in him or not.

To me a bye after a london trip would of been perfect hope that late of a bye doesnt come back to bite them

[Daver]

Jarvis Landry signed with N.O. I don't know if the Packers had any real interest in him or not.

Think he was to small TBH plus he was asking for alot more than GB could offer. We will see now how much he signed with his home team for.
I liked him but didnt think he fit in GB because of his height

In the FWIW dept:

From Ian Rappaport via SI:

Jordan Love is still on the Packers' roster as the backup quarterback to Aaron Rodgers, but is Green Bay thinking about trading him away?

The 23-year-old quarterback is entering his third season with the Packers under his four-year, $12 million contract, according to Spotrac. Last season, he appeared in six games and started one game while Rodgers was out due to COVID-19 or injuries.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport appeared on The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday to discuss Love’s future with the organization. The Packers reportedly didn’t receive any desirable trade offers for Love.

“The problem is, his value as a backup is like real, that is an important thing,” Rapoport said. “I guarantee someone would trade a fifth rounder for Jordan Love. I’m sure someone would trade a fourth rounder for Jordan Love. But, is that enough for the Packers, God forbid something happens to Aaron Rodgers?

So not even a 3rd for him?
