For at least one week in 2008 the Green Bay Packers will play in prime time. The Green & Gold will open the season with a home game against the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football. What a way for Aaron Rodgers to begin is reign as starting quarterback. No pressure there.
Personally, I like it. Rodgers will have a chance to come out show the world the Packers are still a force to be reckoned with even without the great Brett Favre. The Vikings are a team Rodgers should be able to beat with a little help from his defense in shutting down Adrian Peterson. A big win and the Packers will be off and running.
The rest of the schedule might come in out in the next week or so and I could see the Packers getting another Monday night game and maybe even a Sunday night game
More to come…
