Yea I can't even recall the last time we ever had joint practices...totally cool...even if it's the Packers lol

I believe we had joint practices last year with, who was it, Titans?

Pete hates joint practices so never had any under him. I don't remember any under Holmgren or Mora either

I don't see the point to them myself -

To give potentially opposing teams a sneak peak at your shit?

Let them do it the old fashioned way - Belichick style with a camera under a blanket

I so miss Darth Vader.

Pass.

Nope, love it. Been wanting joint practices for decades. Good move.

Extra prep time in game situations for new offense? Passing on that is crazy.

I like it, but would be nice to have another team travel to Seattle

Good place to go, where can you go in Green Bay?

Being away also will help build team chemistry.

Very few outside distractions there so more focus on what they need to do.

I think it’s more for the starters to practice against another teams starters without it actually being a game situation with live tackling. As everyone knows nowadays most teams refrain from playing most of their established veterans or more experienced starters in pre-season games.

So it’s just another avenue of getting the most important guys vital reps against players in different uniforms.

Not dismissing the team building nor preparation aspects either because the team last year, despite some close games, was also much grittier on the road (7-1) vs at home (3-6).

So that may be one of the things discussed on the flight? Raiders are also on our pre-season practice/play list this year.

Didn't they turn the Titans joint practices into team building events last year? I loved that and think it's a great idea to build the chemistry both on and off the field. As long as they stay healthy I love the idea!

I don't think they'll be exchanging playbooks or such...probably just a little friendly competition to show off their new toys...boys will be boys.
