Sunday, 1:00 pm Eastern – CBS

Opening Line: Chargers -3.5 , Total 43

Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers are 2-0 on the season while NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson and the San Diego Chargers are 1-1.  The Packers are coming off their highest-scoring game in nearly two years, a 35-13 rout of the New York Giants.  The Chargers are coming off a bad loss at New England where they were blown out 38-14. San Diego was the NFL's highest-scoring team last season, averaging 30.8 points per game but has done little with new head coach Norv Turner.

San Diego is 24th in the league with just 28 points. "I'm concerned because there is a standard here and we expect to be more productive and we expect to move the ball,” Turner said, "We need to be more productive and we're not going to be more productive if we turn the football over.” Philip Rivers had two interceptions and lost a fumble Sunday.  Tomlinson has averaged 1.9 yards per carry with only 68 yards on 35 carries. "I don't know that anything that you say is going to reassure anybody,” Turner said, "What we have to do is go perform. We have to go play the way we're capable of playing.”

The Packers are off to their best start since opening 3-0 in 2001. "The offseason program, through training camp, and really now with the two wins, I just see the confidence building,” coach Mike McCarthy said, "I think it's real confidence. It's not manufactured, and I think that's important. Our guys believe. They know they can improve. They believe in the work week and what it takes to get ready for a football game. It's growing, a lot of energy in the building.”

Favre is a perfect 4-0 against San Diego in his career.  He has thrown for 828 yards, 10 TDs and four interceptions in those games.  The last time the teams played was in 2003 as Favre threw for 278 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. Green Bay has won seven of eight all-time meetings against San Diego.
