The plan is for the Packers to give Ryan Grant and James Starks an equal number of carries in Thursday night's season opener against the Saints. Grant will be making his first appearance since suffering a season-ending injury against the Eagles in Week 1 of the 2010 season. Starks was a playoff hero for defending champion Green Bay. "We know what they can do," first-year running backs coach Jerry Fontenot said. "It's just a matter of getting them comfortable and making sure they've gotten enough reps to do it. The only way I see them doing that is getting them as equal of work as I possibly can."
