The Green Bay Packers should count their blessings when looking at how close they were to losing to the Jaguars in Week 1 thanks to terrible play calling on a key fourth-down play.

Still, the Packers knew this was going to be a tough matchup when looking at all of the hype surrounding the Jaguars, and it was good to see Aaron Rodgers settle down after a shaky start. Rodgers may have only thrown for 199 yards with two touchdowns against Jacksonville, but the veteran made numerous key plays on offense to help Green Bay start the year off with a 1-0 record.

When looking at all of the weapons on offense, the Packers have the potential to put up monster numbers during the 2016 season, and this team becomes even more dangerous with the return of Jordy Nelson–who caught six passes for 32 yards with a touchdown in his first game back. If all goes well, Rodgers should have no problem with keeping this team in the hunt for the NFC North title.
