Warning Signs: Week 1 Review

Obviously, we cannot overreact too much to Week 1 of the football season. This said, the first installment of this series may be a little shorter than normal.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Trevor Davis caught his single target in the opening game against the Chicago Bears.
