Team: Green Bay Packers2017 Record: 7-9 (3rd Authentic Montae Nicholson Jersey , NFC North)2018 Record: 1-0-1 (t-1st, NFC North)Outlook: Mike McCarthy’s Packers were 4-1 when Aaron Rodgers got knocked out early against the Minnesota Vikings on October 15.Predictably, Green Bay wasn’t the same after Rodgers’ injury, winding up 7-9 and missing the playoffs for the first time since 2008.After an injury scare against the Bears in Week One, Rodgers is back, but his longtime favorite target Jordy Nelson (Raiders) isn’t.The Packers still have Randall Cobb and Davante Adams, and Geronimo Allison has emerged as a reliable option so far.In addition, Green Bay signed free agent tight end Jimmy Graham.The running back situation is less certain Dustin Hopkins Jersey , with Jamaal Williams as the nominal starter for now, but Ty Montgomery and Aaron Jones (who will return from suspension this week) likely to get a lot of touches.Jones may wind up supplanting Williams as the primary ballcarrier, but will probably be limited against the Redskins.Even without Rodgers for most of the year in 2017, the Packers’ offense finished ranked higher than Green Bay’s defense, which was just 26th in points allowed.That performance led to the dismissal of longtime defensive coordinator Dom Capers in favor of Mike Pettine, part of a house-cleaning that saw several of the Packers’ top assistants part ways with the team.Former Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin takes over as offensive coordinator following the first year when a McCarthy-coached Packers team didn’t have a top-ten NFL offense.How Worried Should We Be?: Very worried. Aaron Rodgers is enough to make anyone sweat.More than that, a lot of the Packers’ unraveling in ‘17 owed to the instant deterioration of the offense once Rodgers went down.This was probably a 10-6 or 11-5 team had Rodgers not been knocked out.Like the other two teams the Redskins faced early, there was a lot of turnover on the coaching staff—but Cheap Montae Nicholson Jersey , unlike those teams, there was no change at the top.After last week’s disappointing performance against the Colts in front of an alarmingly empty FedEx Field crowd, it’s also entirely unclear just how much of a home-field advantage the Redskins have—if they have one at all.A loss here (with another light crowd) would send Washington into a bye-week free-fall.There’s a lot of pressure on the Redskins this week against a solid Green Bay team.Daily Slop: Daron Payne hopes to return to training camp next week; Paul Richardson Jr. talks about that time he was mistaken for John Wall Nick Saban, Jay Gruden 'similar in a lot of ways,' says Jonathan Allen | 106.7 The FanJonathan Allen enjoyed immense success in four seasons at Alabama under Nick Saban, the most decorated head coach in college football history.Saying 'no' to a possible DeSean Jackson-Redskins reunion isn't fun, but it is smart | NBC Sports WashingtonDeSean Jackson is not likely to be a starting WR for the Buccaneers this season.

Where Alex Smith and the Redskins QB position stands entering this season | Fanspeak.com From a skill position stand point the Redskins surpass what the Chiefs had a year ago for Alex Smith to work with. Last year Kareem Hunt led the league in rushing as a rookie, and Derrius Guice has a chance to be in the same ball park for the Redskins. Also in the backfield the Redskins have a clear passing game weapon in Chris Thompson (if he can stay healthy), which is something the Chiefs lacked last year behind Hunt.
