APPLETON, Wis. - Jordan Love wasn't just wrong. "I was very wrong," the Packers quarterback says now.

League was never going to put Aaron Rodgers vs. the Packers on NFL Network before some of the country is awake
@mattschneidman Was really hoping for Dublin 😭
Just realized this morning that the Packers haven’t opened at home under LaFleur. Six straight Week 1 games on the road. Last home opener was Rodgers on percs against the Bears in 2018.
@mattschneidman Now we just need that week 1 home opener 🙏🙏🙏
No international games for the Packers this year.
