Thoughts on the preseason game with Atlanta, concerns about playing on turf due to its impact on Bakhtiari's knees, and a hope to keep all seven wide receivers, even if it means starting with fewer tight ends.

Predictions for the season's win totals, thoughts on the improved defense, and a belief that Love will perform at least as well as Rodgers did last year.

Frustration with the sudden change in tone from pundits who were previously critical of Jordan Love but are now supportive, and a preference for the pundits to remain critical.

A cherished memory of predicting a pick-six during a game at a hometown Packers bar.

An anecdote about a freezer malfunction leading to a meat smoking marathon, empathy for the fans impacted by a game cancellation, and optimism about Jordan Love's performance compared to Rodgers' 2022 performance.

It's clear that the upcoming season has fans both excited and apprehensive. There are concerns about the impact of indoor games on Bakhtiari's knees, hopes for keeping all seven wide receivers, and a desire for the pundits to remain critical of Jordan Love.
