The Packers only had a couple of bright spots Thursday Night against the Titans.  Brett Favre was the sharpest he’s been in the pre-season as he connected on 8 of 10 passes for 82 yards and a TD.  Aaron Rodgers followed with his worst performance of a good pre-season as he completed 3 of 7 passes for 35 yards.  The #3 QB was Paul Thompson and he completed 6 of 9 passes for 37 yards.  Rookie RB DeShawn Wynn was finally ready to play so the Packers made him work for his paycheck as he carried the football 21 times for 54 yards (2.6 ypc).  Rookie wideout James Jones continued to impress with 5 catches for 37 yards (7.4 avg).  The Packers offense was pretty bad Thursday Night as they finished with only 61 yards rushing on 27 carries (2.3 ypc) and they also completed 17 of 26 passes for 135 yards.

The defense and special teams both had issues against the Titans.  Still, it was nice to see DT Justin Harrell have a good game as he made 4 tackles and recovered a fumble that he returned 18 yards for a TD.  The Titans scored on a 70 yard punt return by rookie WR Chris Davis.  The Titans also rushed for 152 yards on 32 carries (4.8 ypc) and they completed 20 of 28 passes for 164 yards.
