Green Bay opens the home portion of its preseason schedule tonight at Lambeau Field when they hosts the Seattle Seahawks on 104.1 FM WRLU and 105.1 FM WSBW. The Packers opened the preseason with a 13-9 victory at Pittsburgh, the first time the team had won a preseason opener on the road since 1981. Both teams head into the contest 1-0, as Seattle opened its preseason slate Sunday night in San Diego with a 24-16 victory. Seventeen fourth quarter points helped seal the victory for the Seahawks, who went ahead for good on kicker Josh Brown’s 36-yard field goal. Seattle’s No. 1 offense only saw one series of action. Today marks the 58th annual Upper Midwest Shrine Game, an old standing preseason tradition. Green Bay has won seven of the last eight Shrine contests, including a 38-10 victory over Atlanta in 2006.
Packer’s rookie wide receiver James Jones has performed extremely well to date. However, he says there are no guarantees that he will be the third receiver. He is looking at tonight's game as another opportunity to show why he deserves major playing time in Green Bay.

Mike Holmgren joined the Seahawks after a seven-year tenure as head coach in Green Bay, during which he led the Packers to three straight NFC Championship Games, two Super Bowl appearances and one Super Bowl victory (XXXI). A warm welcome is anticipated for the coach that has a street in Green Bay named after him.
Former New York Giants cornerback and first year man with the Packers Frank Walker said Holmgren coming back to Lambeau is like a famous coach in New York returning to the Meadowlands.

The Green Bay Packers were winners of their first pre-season game in Pittsburgh by the final score of 13-9. The first team offense led by Brett Favre struggled in the first quarter; however, the reserves came through in a low scoring affair. Aaron Rodgers and rookies James Jones and Brandon Jackson stepped up to propel a dormant Green Bay offense.

Rodgers led the Packers on three consecutive scoring drives to move the Packers into position to win their fifth consecutive game dating back to the end of the 2006 season. Jones led the receiving corps with six catches for 58 yards, while Jackson accumulated 57 yards on 16 carries.

Rodgers connected with Ruvell Martin for a 15-yard TD pass to put separation between the Packers and Steelers late in the first half. However, instant replay showed that Martin had stepped out of the back of the end zone before coming back in to catch the throw, nullifying the TD.

To open the second half, Green Bay quickly worked their way down the field and found themselves in third down and goal-to-go. Rodgers lobbed a 3-yard TD pass to Carlyle Holiday to give Green Bay a 10-9 lead. Dave Rayner and Mason Crosby wound up having great nights and the kicking competition is sure to be a heated battle until the end of the preseason.
