You can't be a Packers fan without the latest Packers news. Read about Charles Woodson, the advantage of playing indoors and order your very own cheesehead.
View full sizeBraylon Edwards may not believe it, but Cleveland absolutely can embrace a Michigan man like Charles Woodson.There might not be a more rabid fan base in the NFL than the cheeseheads in Wisconsin, but the brown-and-orange-clad residents of the Dawg Pound might compete for the title - and this week, many of those Browns fans are cheering for a Packers Super Bowl win.
Here's the latest news on your new "favorite NFL team."
Charles Woodson shows he's leader of the pack.
Despite Braylon Edwards' claims, Cleveland can embrace a Michigan man. Hey, our team's new head coach was born in Ann Arbor after all. The Kansas City Star's Randy Covitz profiles our team leader.
Now that the Packers have reached Super Bowl XLV, Woodson, voted by his
teammates as one of the club’s captains for the playoffs, will deliver
the keynote address before Green Bay faces Pittsburgh next Sunday night,
just as he did prior to the previous three postseason games.
Cowboys Stadium may be friendly to Packers' big offense
Conveniently for Browns/Packers fans, we're in the mood to embrace a new offensive-minded era. So what better team to root for than the Packers? Looks like the Super Bowl venue could help us out.
In 12 career indoor starts, Rodgers has thrown for 25 TDs with six interceptions. His 111.5 indoor passer rating since 2008 is No. 1 in the league.
'You can't do anything but smile' at playing indoors, said Pro Bowl wide receiver Greg Jennings, one of five Packers who caught at least 40 balls.The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel wants to know how far you're traveling to get to Super Bowl XLV. We could totally make it in about 19 hours. Who's in?
And if beating the Steelers isn't reason enough to root for the Packers, The Plain Dealer's Bill Lubinger introduces us to Curtis Young, a Glenville graduate now on the Packers' practice squad. Other Ohio connections on the Green Bay roster include Clay Matthews III, son of Browns great Clay Matthews Jr., and Ohio State alums Matt Wilhelm, Ryan Pickett and A.J. Hawk.
And finally today, as if we needed any reason to believe that the Packers playing in the Super Bowl in 2011 is a sign the Browns will be there soon enough, NFL.com looks back on how this team started the process 20 years ago with Ron Wolf and - guess who - Mike Holmgren.
Oh yeah. One more thing. You can't be a Packers fan without a cheesehead. $24.99 on Amazon and I think Amazon user reviewer lilakmess sums it up best: "I love my Cheesehead Hat; it makes people happy."
