Packers Notes

The Packers scored only seven points in Week 1, and QB Aaron Rodgers looked horrible with 22-of-34 for 195-0-1 passing. But remember two things.

1. The Packers were without LT David Bakhtiari (knee), RT Elgton Jenkins (knee) and No. 1 WR Allen Lazard (ankle). All of them have a chance to return in Week 2.
2. The Packers suffered an embarrassing 38-3 road loss to the Saints in Week 1 last year — and then they went 13-3 the rest of the way, captured the No. 1 seed and saw Rodgers win a back-to-back MVP award.

I’m not freaking out about the Packers just yet … although there’s no denying they were rancid against the Vikings.
