The playoff-bound Packers made a move at center this week. Will it pay off? I suspect that this is their Kaepernick move, though no talking heads will prattle on endlessly about the switch. It has the potential to be a bigger payoff than that, if it provides a safe little haven for Rodgers in the middle while the ends are getting pinched. A step or two of breathing room could be the difference between a sack and a 20 yard gain. We shall see, starting this week.
Is the move to EDS that big? I don't know. Maybe he'll screw up the protection calls so royally that it'll torpedo the team. The Packers aren't a team to make such a switch so easily. Last year, their downfall seemed to ultimately be helped along by their unwillingness to change parts of the team that weren't working well.
I suspect we'll see a bit different Packers offense. They're going to run. Rodgers is going to take shots when he gets itchy but I think they know that they need to pound the rock these next few weeks in an attempt to back defenses off. Plus, I think M3 has been watching the 9ers and falling in like with their variety in the running game.
I don't know much about the Titans this year. They've been mostly rebuilding with an above average RB and a 2nd year QB with few receiving threats. The Titans used to give GB hell when Jeff Mustache was the coach but this team is just kind of... nondescript. I've seen or heard most teams play this year but have heard very little about the Titans. Johnson runs the ball well but that seems to be it.
That said, the Packers churn out victory against the non-descript Titans.
