Green Bay Packers fans, are you ready for some Sunday night football?
The Packers continue their preseason schedule with their second straight road game tonight against the Denver Broncos.
The Packers have been in Denver since Thursday, giving them more time than usual to get used to the altitude. The two teams participated in a joint practice on Friday.
After Jordan Love had a brief but effective showing in last week's preseason opener in Cleveland, the Packers quarterback will watch this one from the sidelines, allowing his backups Sean Clifford and Michael Pratt to showcase their talents as they fight for the No. 2 job.
Reporter Tom Silverstein will take your questions during the game in his usual chat. You can join here to be part of the conversation. He'll begin about 30 minutes before kickoff.
And I'll provide all the game highlights and scoring updates below.

Is Jordan Love playing today?
No.
The Packers quarterback will sit this one out as will many of the team's starters. Love was 2 for 2 with a perfect passer rating (158.3) in last week's 23-10 preseason-opening win over the Cleveland Browns. His 65-yard touchdown pass to Dontayvion Wicks on the third play of the game might be his final throw of the preseason.

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.

Packers vs Broncos prediction
The Packers are playing in Denver for a second straight season. Unlike last year when the Packers lost a deflating regular season game during their early-season slump, this one doesn't count in the standings. But it's still important as head coach Matt LaFleur evaluates players with cut down day looming in less than two weeks.
And there are many spots up for grabs. The Packers may come up short, but it will be a great opportunity for Sean Clifford at quarterback and Emanuel Wilson to seize the backup jobs in a challenging environment. Who will kick in the team's regular season opener Sept. 6 will remain undecided.
Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix will stand out in his first game in front of the home fans.
Broncos 24, Packers 20
