ESPN: ‘Alright the Packers are a Super Bowl favorite who looked horrible in Week 1, who do we think we can get on the air to talk about their potential issues.’
Jermichael Finley/Greg Jennings:

Death, taxes, and Jermichael Finley taking shots at Aaron Rodgers after a bad game. You can set your watch to it. Aaron Rodgers throwing 2 picks in a 38-3 loss is like oxygen to this dude. Move on, J-Mike, move on.
Somewhat related: The Packers are -11 against the Lions on Monday. Gun to my head, if you made me pick one team to bet against the spread, I think I’d have to go Detroit. Don’t get me wrong, I think the Packers win the game, but I don’t think it’s going to be as easy as we all hope it will be. This is going to take a little bit to get on track. And Detroit is a FEISTY team with Dan Campbell as their head coach. They backdoor covered the Niners on Sunday after being down 41-10. They got it to 41-33 AND had the ball in Niner territory at the end. The combination of a scrappy team against a team that’s still trying to tighten things up after a weird offseason would have me putting some entertainment points on the scrappy squad +11.
PS: I will say this about Jermichael Finley, his Wild Card game in 2009 against the Cardinals was as dominant as I’ve seen a receiver look during the Aaron Rodgers Era. That includes any of Jordy’s individual games. Finley looked like Randy Moss in that game. Just big brothering the Cardinal secondary all afternoon during that shootout. As annoying as he has been post-playing career, it is a shame that his career was cut short by a random injury.
