Aaron Rodgers will get hurt and Chad Pennington will outplay BrettFavre in Week 1 in Miami. Those are two of the fearless predictionsfrom SI.com's Don Banks as the NFL's opening weekend continues across America. (Last night the Giants beat the Redskins 16-7 in the season's first game). "The days of Green Bay never having to make a starting quarterback change due to injury are as over as the Favre era in Titletown," predicts Banks. Rodgers (left) and the Packers host the Vikings (ESPN, 7 p.m. ET, Monday) in one of the must-see games of Week 1. Sunday's biggest game is arguably Dallas at Cleveland (Fox, 4:15 p.m.), which features Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo against a Browns team that just missed the playoffs last season. Jets at Dolphins (CBS, 1 p.m. ET) offers the debut of Favre in a New York uniform against Pennington, who spent eight years with the Jets. What kind of impact will Favre have? SI's Peter King predicts the Jets will make the playoffs (as a wild card) while the Packers will be on the outside looking in come the postseason. One thing's for certain: It's going to be fun to watch. source>>>
