4. Green Bay Packers (1-0) (prev: 3rd): The Packers came away with a win after week one but the game was much closer than it should have been. After shutting down the Eagles for a large portion of the game, the Packers couldn't stop Michael Vick once Kolb was knocked out of the game. Aside from that, losing Ryan Grant will hurt, but Brandon Jackson should be able to adequately fill in for a few weeks.

Having the Titans in front of the Packers may be a bit much. Titans played at home against a . . . trending upward (ugh) Oakland team who had to come all the way east. NEVER an easy thing to do.

GB had to do go into one of THE most hostile environments to play a game, muchless a season opener where the crush of expectations to start fast was apparent.

That said, to come out with a "W" in what was a brutally physical game rates higher, in rotary's opinoin, than a cakewalk home game by Tennessee.

And, with Grant out for the season, Jackson and whomever backs him up will have to be more than adequate if GB is going to end up where many think they will.
