commentary...

the Green Bay Packers will fight Minnesota for the division this year;offense is one of the best in NFL... there is a big question about offensive line,age and injuries,and if Packers can avoid major injuries to offensive line,they will be very good offensively... on defense,they have questions in defensive backfield... Al Harris will be out for the first six games,recovering from knee surgery,and injury,sustained against San Francisco,last year,i believe... the rookies on the team will be tested early,and often... Johnny Jolly is suspended for the 2010 season,and beyond,if CBA talks break down,and strike happens next year,so defensive line will be makeshift,early,but will be better,as season goes on... the Packers have to be better inside the 20,and special teams have to be better than last year,in which they were pathetic last year... Mason Crosby has to improve,like he was in 2008,and longer in distance on field goals... one thing good for the Packers:they have a very good schedule,to work on,and play this year... they will score a lot of points... Aaron Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks in football,and Ryan Grant has to improve on his inside running,and return to 2008 form,which i believe that he will,and the receiving corps has to improve inside the 20,by catching the tough passes... no arguments with Donald Driver,but everyone else has to pick up their game inside the 20,and offensive line has to keep Rodgers upright in the pocket,and not allow so many penalties,and/or sacks... the Packers are a true playoff team,and with the right breaks,they would be in the fight for the Super Bowl berth in the NFC... can the Packers win NFC North,this year? yes,but Minnesota,i hate to admit,is early favorite,if Favre comes back,and i am convinced that he is coming back... if defense improves,and offensive line improves,the Packers will be tough to beat this season...
