Week 1- I think we have a fair chance at winning this one and coming back home with a 1-0 record.

Week 2- Do you know how this one game could make our season. I think our chances of winning this game is slim, but if we did... Knocking off the defending champs at home could really give our guys confidence.

Also if we lose 45-0, that would probably cause the reverse effect..

We have been known at times to win at home, hopefully this year is the same.

We beat the packers last time. Really boils down to how our QB plays and how our secondary defends 5 wide packages.

I honestly think we will lose this game. I hope people do not misinterpret this and think I'm saying we will win.. I'm just looking at how big of a momentum boost this would be if we did win.

I think we have a chance to win against Green bay, if only because I think everyone will be underestimating us at the outset of the season. We stunk it up last year, and until we come out and show something different, I believe a lot of teams will pencil in a "W" when they see us on the schedule. But I also believe this ain't the same old John Fox Panthers they've gotten used to over the last few years. I believe we're gonna surprise some folks. Green Bay might be one of them.

Packers have started out slow past 2 years. They lost to the Deadskins and Miami early last year. Its the NFL so anyone can win especially at home. Still we would need something close to a miracle, Green Bay is LOADED young and had almost zero turnover.

I don't see it either, but, the Packers won't be as good as they were last year. No Cullen Jenkins is really going to hurt, and losing Brandon Jackson, their third-down back, isn't going to help their cause, either.

I think the Packers will be good, but definitely not the best team in the NFC.

Ive been eyeballin that game since the schedule got released... A victory is possible, not probable, but definately possible. They are not the team they were last season and we damn sure arent either. The OP has a very valid point, a win on that day would do great things for the players...

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
