What to watch for in Game #1 versus the Bears?
1 - With no Fullbacks on the Roster, who will do their old job?
Answer is..... Tight Ends! Watch for Kendricks & Lewis to help the O-line. We all have been hearing how Mercedes Lewis is a great blocker! Look for him to help! In the backfield, we may see Kendricks. Bulaga at right tackle may need help. When Aaron needs MAX protection we may see THREE tight ends on the field!
2 - Who will replace Jordy?
Answer is...... Jimmy Graham. Look for Graham in the slot. Look for Graham in 3rd down situations. Look for Graham in the Red Zone! Look for Graham in the middle of the field! In fact, look for Graham driving Rodgers to and from the game!!!
3 - Will we have a running game?
Answer is..... NO! Until we get Jones back from suspension, NO running game!
4 - Will we see any NEW plays or formations or CREATIVITY on offense?
Answer is ....... WE BETTER! Why, McCarthy will be history after 2018!
5 - We will have a defense?
Answer is.... My GUT says yes! My HEART says please!! And, Aaron Rodgers says HELP!
Will the new concepts allow pressure on the opposing offense? Can we win the turnover battle? Can we stop one receiver from the opposing team from having career nights! Can we TACKLE!!!
6 - Will the Packer Defense EVER have an impact player again???
Answer is...... MAYBE. Remember Reggie White? Remember a YOUNG Clay Matthews. Remember a D-back like Charles Woodson. Who will step up? Kenny Clark - at defensive tackle? Oren Burks at inside linebacker. Or one of our your corners - King, Alexander or Jackson?
7 - Will Special Teams help win games????
Answer is..... MAYBE. Is our young punter, JK Scott a game changer? Will Trevor Davis FINALLY explode???? Will James Crawford be a wild man on special teams? Will our new long snapper last the season???
8 - Will Aaron Rodgers have a MVP season?
Answer is..... YES, if - Jimmy Graham scores 15 TD's and has 1000 yards. YES, if - Jones returns week #3 and helps build a running game! YES, if - Davante Adams is a true #1 receiver and has 18 TD's and 1000 receiving yards. YES, if McCarthy show new creativity and let's Aaron be Aaron!
Next up, my Bears prediction!
