Packers Week 1 Press Conference

"What can I say about this game? It was to say the least an abnormality that I haven't seen in pro football in a long time. We were moving the ball easily through the Lions defense and our own defense held them in check. As the game approached halftime a storm system that had been threatening the area blew in much quicker than anticipated. For the safety of everyone present at the game, it had to be rescheduled.

I have to give the Lions credit, given the second oppurtunity their players made the necessary adjustments to keep with us. Costly fumbles by Andre Davis on a kickoff and Josh McCown on a play action proved the difference as they resulted in the Lions taking the lead late in the game. Attempting to give us one last shot McCown also threw an INT but the play made on that by Ted Lehman was extraodinary and it was desperation times.

If you cannot tell, the team is not pleased with the circumstances and result of what happened this week. But we must look at the positives that came out of it and look forward to next weeks game.

Tatum Bell played excellent in his debut averaging 132 yards and a touchdown. 6.3 yards per carry is more than we or any of the critics for that matter expected from him and we are thoroughly pleased. Our other young guys also played well. Rooke WR David Anderson recorded his first touchdown of his career and punter Kyle Basler has already bettered Sander's average from last year and nearly matched his season long. Second-year safety Jerome Carter also provided an important interception in our redzone to keep us around.

That is all I have to say right now and we look forward to returning to the win column next week. Any questions?"

Do you feel that perhaps with a veteran like Brett still at the helm that the outcome could of been different?

What do you plan to change on defense in order to give your offense more of a chance when it makes those crucial turnovers?

I was quite pleased with McCown's performance in this game. I believe with Favre at QB that interception to end the game would have been just as likely. He played his heart out and we are confident with him in future games.

I apologize but could you rephrase your question...If I can understand it correctly, which team is making the crucial turnovers? When my offense gives it away or my defense takes it?
