Re: Week 1 other NFL games
Huge difference between the Pats' offense and Green Bay's today. Obviously, the Packers were going up against a dominant run defense from the 49ers, and that has to be factored in. But they ran the ball on only 14 of 61 offensive plays, of which 5 were runs by Aaron Rodgers, who was their leading rusher. They have no running game, and little offensive balance. Rodgers passed for 303 yards, but targeted only 5 receivers the entire game - Finley, Jennings, Cobb, Nelson and Jones. Rodgers is a beast and the Pack have some terrific weapons, but based on our own experience it's going to be hard for them to make it through the postseason without more offensive diversity and balance.
