GREEN BAY, Wis. -- After the Green Bay Packers’ defensive debacle in their season-opening loss, first-year defensive coordinator Joe Barry put on a good face.
“You never have to worry about me,” Barry said days after the 38-3 loss to the New Orleans Saints. “Promise.”
"Never" might be next week.
If the San Francisco 49ers continue what the Saints did in Week 1, and what the Detroit Lions did in the first half of Week 2, then worry might set in -- if not from the exuberant Barry, then from those around the Packers who wonder if their defense can turn things around.
