| Carolina Panthers wide receiver Steve Smith on Wednesday said he won't seek payback against New York Giants defensive back Michael Johnson when the two meet Sunday. Smith suffered a broken left arm in 2009's Week 16 after a hit by Johnson. During training camp, Smith told SI.com he would be "going after" Johnson in the season opener. Johnson responded by dissing Smith. Now, Smith is backing off his pledge and expressing regret for it. |

| When asked about Carolina's offensive woes on Wednesday, DeAngelo Williams responded with a question of his own. "In the preseason?" Williams asked. "You're talking about the preseason?" Yes, the preseason. The Panthers did go the entire preseason without scoring an offensive touchdown -- the first NFL team in at least 14 years to do that. |

| For the past nine months, the New York Giants have talked about playing defense like the Giants of old. The style was simple, brute force. No one outmuscled the Giants. No one ran on them. New defensive coordinator Perry Fewell and his unit will see how far they have come on Sunday when the Carolina Panthers open the season against the Giants in the $1.6 billion New Meadowlands Stadium. |

| On Dec. 21, 2009, the New York Giants returned "home" for the final time with the hopes of closing the building that bore their name for 34 seasons with a win against the Carolina Panthers.
The Panthers, though, had other ideas. Carolina, who was without their leading rusher, DeAngelo Williams, ran wild against the Giants defense for 247 yards on 46 carries—the most rushing yards ever given up by the Giants at their former home, which they closed with an embarrassing 41-9 loss.
"That wasn't how we wanted to end our season," said cornerback Terrell Thomas."They just beat us to the ground. Nothing against them, but they ran the ball down our throat and they'll probably try to do the same thing this year." This year, the Giants say they will be ready as they seek... |

| NFL Power Poll: Packers' expectations soar, but Jets still No. 1 Green Bay is the smallest market in the NFL, but no team has created more buzz over the past month. Although last season's 7-1 finish has played a part, the attention is largely based on the unstoppable preseason performance of quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the offense. The players have accepted the high expectations without letting the hype get to them. "I don't see a problem with it," tight end Jermichael Finley said. |
