Tucker Kraft Would Last Two Seconds in Philadelphia
Mister Softee right here:
“That’s pretty tough. Like everyone pictures Lambeau Field and not boos. I don’t picture boos. I picture my home stadium. That’s tough. It’s pretty disappointing, especially for a home opener. It’s pretty disappointing. It’s not going to help us win. Like I don’t know what people think that’s going to rally us or something like that. But that’s — we’re grown men. We’re mentally strong enough, capable enough to get back on the field and play ball. But it’d probably much easier with the 70,000 people behind us rather than opposing us.”
Well here’s an idea – maybe don’t get your ass kicked by the 0-2 Falcons on your home turf! Ever think of that? They’re booing you guys because you gave up 35 points to a winless team and allowed Bijan Robinson to top 220 scrimmage yards.
Wait – Tucker Kraft doesn’t play defense? Okay, let’s see – the Packers’ offense threw the ball 53 times and ran it nine times for 17 yards. Jordan Love averaged 5.9 yards per completion while connecting on 52.8% of his passing attempts. He has the same passer rating as Malik Willis and is ranked 28th in the NFL in that category.
The thing about calling out the fans for booing is that it never works. They are the customer, and the customer is always right, even when they’re wrong. But they’re not wrong in this case because they’re watching a Green Bay team that’s underachieved since the 2021 Divisional Round, winning one playoff game while putting together one 10-win season. They’ve got some talent up there and always seem to find a way to do less with more. Packers fans aren’t dumb. They know these bums in green and yellow can do better than 1-2 and so they are communicating their displeasure the only way they can, which is by boooooooooooooooooing them on home turf.
Tucker Kraft would last two seconds in Philadelphia. Maybe the Packers would rather be doing something else. In that case, we can get them a BetParx Casino promo code or a Borgata casino promo code.
