Fans in Green Bay booed loudly during the Packers’ 35-14 loss to the Falcons on Thursday night at Lambeau Field. Packers tight end Tucker Kraft didn’t appreciate that. “That’s pretty tough,” Kraft said of the boos. “Everyone pictures Lambeau Field and not the boos. I don’t picture the boos when 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. I don’t know what people think, that’s going to cheer us up or something. But we’re grown men. We’re mentally strong enough, capable enough to go back on the field and play ball. But it would be a lot easier with 70,000 people behind us. of us instead of opposing us.” Kraft, who caught four passes for 26 yards, admitted he didn’t play to his own standards and that the Packers need to play better than they did during their 1-2 start. “A long season, we’re three games in, yet we’ve lost two to NFC opponents,” Kraft said. Kraft said the Packers can’t hear boos, cheers or anything else. “We cannot allow outside noise to divide us,” Kraft said. “Us guys in this locker room are really all we have. We spend a lot of time together, so keep staying close and building each other up.”
