Schedule Released

The NFL released the schedule of each team and the Packers are still in the national spotlight after losing Brett Favre and coming off their dominant season last year that ended as runner-ups in the NFC.

WEEK 1 = MNF opener of the season against the Vikings @ Lambeau Field on ESPN
  • Great way to start the season against the hated Vikings at home.
  • We get to see what Aaron Rodgers can do in primetime in the first game w/o Favre under center.
  • The Defense we'll have its name cut out for 'em with AD (Peterson) going against our dominant front 7.

WEEK 3 = Home game against the Cowboys, and rematch of last years duel in Dallas.

  • Rodgers hopefully can continue where he left off against Big D and hopefully we can get the win we didn't last year
  • Sunday Night Football on NBC

WEEK 12 = Play Saints in NO on MNF

  • The past 2 NFC runner-ups play against each other
  • This game could go a long way towards playoff seeding, and establishing if we are legit.

WEEK 16 = MNF @ CHI

  • The Rivalry takes the national stage as these two teams battle it out on a cold night in CHI
  • The Bears might be respectable this year, but this game might end Grossman's career in a Bear's uniform, hopefully not though haha.
