Only the NFL can make a preseason game this appealing.

The Aaron Rodgers era officially begins for Green Bay tonight at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN, and if the Packers offense doesn't come out blazing the home crowd will turn on the Packers quick.

With Brett Favre booted to the New York Jets the Packers' success is squarely on the shoulders of Rodgers, if he doesn't deliver early in this contest expect him to hear a loud chorus of boos.

As for the Bengals, not as much drama. Though it will be interesting to see if wide receiver Chad Johnson gets any playing time in this game. He's finally been practicing after recovering from ankle surgery.
