We really didn't get to see much of any of them. The starting offense went three and out on 3 consecutive passes, the first two of which Rodgers hit. McCarthy didn't give Rodgers another series after that.
The starting defense was pretty vanilla. Capers didn't bring any pressure besides rushing 4 guys since they wanted to evaluate players. Matthews and Barnett played okay for guys who hadn't touched the football in a few weeks. The Packers D as a whole still were able to strip a couple of balls from the Titans, although both were to close to the sidelines that fell out of bounds.
Overall, it was an okay performance, but hardly indicative of what we'll see out of either side of the ball Week 1. I thought the reserves played a bit better this week against Tennessee then they did last week against the Cardinals, but still a lot of mistakes out of that group. Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy are going to have some tough choices on who to keep and who they think they can sneak through waivers and bring back onto the practice squad.
