Bears DC Williams not underestimating Aaron Rodgers, Packers despite Week 1 loss vs Minnesota.
Even though the Green Bay Packers had a very rough game against the Vikings in Week 1, Bears defensive coordinator Alan Williams is not underestimating his opponent. He knows to well to write off Aaron Rodgers.
"We try to tell the guys, 'Don't drink the Kool Aid of what the media is trying to sell that there's gloom and doom in Green Bay. Don't fall into that trap,'" Williams said. "So that is the first message, and then the quarterback, don't underestimate the power of great leadership. He is a great leader, and he will get those guys into shape.
"What we're trying to do is to block out everything else and focus in on the task at hand, which is improving each week, follow the process, stay the course, keep worrying about, 'Hey, this is the next football game, not necessarily the Super Bowl or anything like that.' We need to take care of ourselves and our business and what we need to do than more so who they are and what they're doing."

Williams doesn't expect anything but the best out of the Packers' offense which should get more help with a few key players coming back from injuries. The coordinator also called Rodgers "one of the best in history."
"With a guy like him, it's tough to get to him with four guys," Williams said. "So you have to bring pressure and you fill up the holes so that he can't escape � remember I said that he was the greatest B-gap escape guy, so you have to bring pressure. You have to get guys on him. You have to try to make him uncomfortable and bring more than four to get home."
