The NFL preseason has reached Week 3, often referred to as the dress rehearsal as starters get a lot more minutes. The Packers were robbed last year during the regular season in their game with the Seahawks. How much that plays into this game is not certain, but you know it has to be part of what the Packers bring to the table for this one. Aaron Rogers has not seen a lot of action this preseason, but when he has, he has been as crisp as ever completing 13 of 17 passes for 196 yards, and stretching the field at 11.53 yards per attempt. Seattle is off a pair of blowout wins (31-10 and 40-1) which is why they are laying points on the road. But, teams that are 2-0 in these games often feel a bit satisfied and don't bring as much as they can in week 3. Green Bay has allowed just 26 total points in their two games, so the depth behind the starters has been more than sufficient. Seattle has been the beneficiary of a pair of 100+ non-offensive scores, which have made their results look a bit better than they are. On top of that they are +6 in turnovers in the first two games and when that starts to even out, so will the results. I think Green Bay has some scores to settle here and will come to play, especially as a home dog. Play on Green Bay.
