It's All About Aaron Rodgers in 2018 (As Always)
From Athlon Sports:
A healthy 16 games from Rodgers virtually guarantees a 10-6 finish at minimum -- the Packers are 94-46 in games Rodgers started and didn’t leave with a broken collarbone over the past 10 years. Whether Rodgers gets to the second Super Bowl of his career, however, depends on whether his younger teammates elevate their games, and how many contributions the rookies can make.

The Packers Opponent
When it comes to the Chiefs, the wide receiver position, in particular, could present a problem for the Packers.
“There’s great competition,” Chiefs’ coach Andy Reid said last week before they took on the Bears. “And that’s fun to watch. Both [Gehrig] Dieter and [Marcus] Kemp are very close. And here they are competing for a position on the team. They both have had good practices and good games and that’s good—that makes us better when we have that competition.”
Rookie Ben Niemann could be very good this season for the Chiefs. He’s had 11 total tackles this presason.
From Chiefs.com:
While the skill positions tend to get most of the headlines and notoriety, which for the Chiefs has surrounded the receiver and running back groups this offseason, the other group to watch for the Chiefs Thursday night is the offensive line.
With guys like sixth-round pick Khalil McKenzie, plus undrafted rookies Jimmy Murray and Ryan Hunter, as well as several others, these are crucial reps for their development and also their cases to make the final roster.
