That was a pretty satisfying week 1 win. The Green Bay Packers vanquished probably their most hated rival outside of the Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings (not in that order) — the Seattle Seahawks.
They did so, surprisingly to me, with a great defensive performance.
Total offense — Packers: 370, Seahawks: 225.
The Packers dominated the time of possession. They took care of the Seahawks’ three-headed running game. Other than scrambling, they shut down Russell Wilson.
Those are the broad strokes. Here are the fine lines.
Work In Progress
If anyone thought Ty Montgomery was going to come out and dominate, you were wrong.
