Green Bay v. Tennessee -- Live from the Lee Remmel Press Box

After a wholly crappy drive up from Milwaukee, we're live from the press box here at Lambeau. Not doing opposing team radio today. It's a Gold package game, meaning it's the Milwaukee fans. Here we go:

That was fast, Aaron Rodgers hit Greg Jennings on an out pass over a CB who made an interception attempt and failed as Rodgers split the CB and S perfectly. It was all open road after that. One play, one Rodgers to Jennings touchdown. I think they'll keep the starters in for more than just one play however.

It should be noted that this is the smallest crowd I've seen at Lambeau Field. Ever.

Justin McCareins just torched Nick Collins for a 50 yard completion. Uh, Aaron Rouse for starter?

And I was wrong as Aaron Rodgers day is finished after one pass, Brian Brohm is in the game at QB.

Tramon Williams just locked his position as the nickel back with a nice play on a Vince Young ball.

One of the better defensive plays of the preseason so far: Jason Hunter gets to Young, who barely gets a pass away, but Abdul Hodge is all over the running back for a five yard loss. I'll tell you that Hodge appears to finally be the player they drafted two years ago. He's having an incredible preseason.

All the o line starters are out with 7:16 left in the first quarter.

Desmond Bishop and Hodge have both looked VERY solid in relief of the starters.

Flynn already has his helmet on and is taking snaps from some guy named Brennen Carvalho on the sidelines as the first quarter comes to a close. Brohm has yet to lead the team to a first down.

And Flynn is in at QB already with 14:43 remaining in the 2nd quarter. He's going to have a TON of time to bypass Brohm as the number 2 QB on this roster.

Noah "The Clobberer" Herron is making a case for himself to stay on the roster by churning out a couple of nice runs in successive plays.

Jevan Kearse just recovered a Flynn fumble. Remember him?

Or is just me or do Titans fans have a bit to be worried about? Their first team offense is struggling mightily to score points against the Pack's second and third string defense. So much so to the point that they just used a fake punt to get their first touchdown.

We're switching over to fellow BTBers game blog if we can stay awake for the duration of this thing.
