GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Russell Wilson isn't Matt Ryan. Nor does he have Julio Jones at his disposal. So the job the Green Bay Packers defense did on the Seattle Seahawks in Sunday's season-opening victory might come with a grain of salt.
Nevertheless, the same pass defense that finished last season ranked 31st in the NFL -- ahead of only the New Orleans Saints -- and was, to use defensive tackle Mike Daniels' word, bad-mouthed all offseason for it, sits at No.
