for 422 yards in his NFL debut.  Newton will likely find life much more difficult against the defending Super bowl champs this week.

The Packers travel to Carolina on Sunday for their first road trip of the season.

Green Bay’s defense didn’t have an easy time of it in their opening week win over the Saints, but that was against veteran Drew Brees, who has a solid stable of receivers and a solid ground attack. [Read more...]

One last chance to make a lasting impression.  That’s what the Green Bay

Packers backups have tonight when the Packers close out the preseason at Kansas City against the Chiefs.

The Packers defense started slow last season, but came on strong in the end and finishing with the #1 run defense in the NFL.  How will they stack up this season?

The Packers have had a rash of training camp injuries and cornerback Al Harris and safety Atari Bigby will start the season on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list.  There’s a chance that rookie Sam Shields may have to start the season as the teams nickelback.

The Packers hired a new defensive coordinator in Dom Capers (pictured) and he’s surrounded by a number of new defensive coaches, including former Steelers and Panthers great Kevin Greene and former Carolina defensive coordinator Mike Trgovac, once a defensive assistant with the Packers.

The Packers special teams units were a mess last season and Shawn Slocum has taken over as the teams Special Teams Coordinator to fix that problem.

Throw in a couple of changes on the offensive line and a brand new attitude preaching physical toughness and the Packers are ready to open the season against the Chicago Bears on Sunday night.  [Read more...]
