Packers, Rossum miss each other

GREEN BAY - Atlanta Falcons punt returner Allen Rossum never wanted to leave Green Bay. <br> <br> The Packers wish he&#39;d never left, either, and not just because they face him tomorrow night at Lambeau Field. <br> <br> Green Bay hasn&#39;t been able to replace Rossum, who signed a three-year, $3 million contract with the Falcons last winter. <br> <br> The Packers gave free agent Darrien Gordon the first shot but then cut him. <br> <br> Coach Mike Sherman put the ball in the hands of J.J. Moses, and he committed the cardinal sin of trying to pick up a bouncing ball, three times in two weeks. <br> <br> Sherman jettisoned Moses and brought 34-year-old Eric Metcalf out of retirement. But Metcalf was miserable in his first game Sunday against the New York Jets. <br> <br> Rossum says he takes no solace in the Packers&#39; predicament. In fact, he says he didn&#39;t even realize they had struggled so much trying to replace him.
