[QUOTE="ivo610, post: 420638, member: 2128"] I blame ESPN. I blame sound bites. I blame fans for not thinking for themselves. The past few weeks I have seen many posters on here refer to our defense as the worst in the league. Its not. Not even close. I understand the simpletons on the Saints forum calling it the worst defense but Packer fans? Come on guys. We are 9th in opponent passer rating. Not outstanding but not terrible. In fact we are way ahead of the Saints and the Giants. For some reason (ESPN) we have been driven to focus on yardage this season without giving or taking away its value. Teams are racking up garbage yards. We lead the league in INTs. Does anyone have a serious argument for why the Packers are the worst defense in the league? BC they are not. We have issues, we have holes, we have gaps in our defense. But we arent the worst. Far from it. I can promise you the rankings and numbers would look even better if you exclude the last game of the season when we sat 2 of 3 best defensive players. [/QUOTE]
