What To Look For As The Packers Begin The Season?

Here are several keys that I will be looking for this season as the Packers try to win another Super Bowl!

Offense
1 - Sacks!  We the two new tackles protect Rogers? No more than two sacks per game.

2 - Big Plays!  How many plays over 40 yards will the Packers have this season?  And the key is how many over 40 yard running plays will the have!!!  Goal - one running play over 40 yards, passing three.

3 - Turnovers - average no more than 1 per game?

4 - Injuries - How many games will we have all 11 starters that start the season?  Bulaga does not count! Goal - 12 of 16 games.

5 - 6 games with a back running for over 100 yards.

Defense
1 - Sacks! At least 3 per game! (Last year we had 47 for the year)

2 - Big Plays Stopped. Two plays over 40 yards ONLY!  Running or Passing.

3 - Cause 3 turnovers per game! (Last year we had 18 interceptions & 8 forced fumbles)

4 - Injuries - How many games will we have all 11 starters that start the season?  Goal - 12 of 16 games.

5 - Hold opposition running backs under 100 yards.

Special Teams
1 - No turnovers!

2 - Three kickoff or punt return for over 40 yards

3 - 75% field goals made

4 - Hold opponent to no returns over 40 yards.

5 - 1 defensive or special team TD per game.

I will track this for every game this year!
