VIEWS OF THE GAME
TOM There’s SILVERSTEINno question 0-2 teams who have just changed coordinatorsteam and will are come dangerous.in with some Cincinnati unscoutedis a desperatelooks on offense that will challenge the Packers. But as long as the defense controls A.J. Green, the Packers can win. Packers 30, Bengals 20 PETE DOUGHERTY The Packers could be missing some key players because of injury (Mike Daniels, David Bakhtiari, Randall Cobb), but Cincinnati will be missing some offensive talent as well (Tyler Eifert, John Ross). And there’s a gulf between Aaron Rodgers and the beleaguered Andy Dalton. Packers 24, Bengals 13 MICHAEL COHEN
Regardless of the injury picture, this is a game for the Packers to right the ship after another humbling trip to Atlanta. Packers 34, Bengals 17 RYAN WOOD
It’s never good to be depleted with injuries, but the Packers caught a break with the timing. They’ll host a Bengals team that hasn’t scored a touchdown through the season’s first two weeks. Given the Packers’ home dominance against a better offense in their opener, it’s hard to see how the Bengals possibly score enough to win. Packers 24, Bengals 13

The Packers come into this one banged up on both sides of the ball and face a defensive scheme that has given them trouble in the past. As is often the case, the adjustments by Aaron Rodgers being able to make adjustments at the line of scrimmage (provided the home crowd doesn’t break into the Wave as they did in Week 1) will be the difference.
