Packers Fall to Cleveland in Preseason Opener

Posted Saturday, August 14th, 2010 --- 10:59 PM

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Jake Delhomme's Cleveland Browns debut was a smashing success, just like what the Green Bay Packers have come to expect from Aaron Rodgers.

Delhomme led the Browns to a touchdown in his only drive and Rodgers threw one of his own in Cleveland's 27-24 win on Saturday night in the exhibition opener decided on Phil Dawson's field goal as time expired.

Delhomme went 6 of 7 for 66 yards, including a fourth-and-1 flick to Mohamed Massaquoi for 12 yards that set up Jerome Harrison's 4-yard TD run. Backup Seneca Wallace added two touchdown passes.

Rodgers was similarly efficient, reading a corner blitz for a 25-yard TD pass to Greg Jennings. He finished 12 of 13 for 159 yards, but the Packers lost starting running back Ryan Grant after a hit to the head.

Well Mr/Ms/Mrs Anonymous....first of all, learn to spell his name.....it's Aaron, not aron! If you read anything about his off the field interests his music is very important for his relaxation. He's also a very dedicated man to various charities. Plus this is pre-season and the coaches are playing many players to see exactly who they need where. I'm not sure what game you were watching, but he was 12 for 13 and 159 yards in the short time he was on the field.

aron rodgers, They were playing "rock and roll all night" by the legendary group KISS and aron tried to act like Gene Simmons playing bass guitar. Complete total wierdo. Its like try sticking to just playing football. Obviously you're going to have enough problems winning games this year.
