GREEN BAY – Aaron Rodgers senses no déjà vu. He’s been here before, leading a high-octane Green Bay Packers offense, setting records and taking names, making it all look easy.
This should feel familiar for the two-time MVP. What the Packers have done through two games – the highest-scoring first two games to a Green Bay season since 1919 – is circa 2011, or 2014, or late 2016. The Packers dropped 40 points on another NFC North opponent Sunday, blowing past the Detroit Lions 42-21 inside an empty Lambeau Field, and they did it in warm-knife-through-butter fashion.
The first quarter ended with the Packers trailing 14-3.
