Wolverine Watch: NFL Week 1

The NFL kicked off its 100th season on Thursday night and it picked up where the 99th season left off - a clunker on the grandest stage. The Bears and Packers combined for only 13 total points seven months after the Patriots and Rams combined for 16. Despite the defensive struggle, Packers rookie Rashan Gary made his debut for Green Bay in Chicago. While Gary is still transitioning to the role of stand up linebacker in Mike Pettine’s 3-4 defense, he played six snaps, logging one hit and one hurry per Pro Football Focus.
