The NFL season kicks off in earnest this evening when the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks and their notoriously grabby secondary face off against the Green Bay Packers. Both of these teams should be playoff-bound again in 2014, so this one will be worth watching closely.
Me? I anticipate the Packers will walk away from this one with a win, though that's based on little more than the NFL's efforts to undercut a favored Seattle defensive tactic and the fact that Green Bay is always, always dangerous. Please share your picks in the comments, and use this as your open thread this evening.
