[QUOTE="Bogart, post: 417570, member: 3900"] But what's not getting mentioned is the Saints defense. They are playing like a playoff team right now. N.O. held Atlanta to just [B]35[/B] total rushing yards. And you know, the Falcons prime attack is running the ball and milking the clock, they'll run 8 plays and waste 5 minutes on just that. I hate to pick sides, but if anyone is playing better defense this late in the season, I think they are doing a much better job than we are here in Green Bay. We lose a game, go into the next one against a team we knew was going to try and run the ball 3/4's of the time, and our defense let them have fun out there and rush for 199 yards without their starting RB. Had Forte played, it would have probably been 250 total rushing yards. The Saints on the other hand look truly embarrassed with their games earlier this year, and are doing a better job shutting down the run. The playoffs will prove if the Packers defense is what people have said all year, that they don't care cause they depend on Rodgers to out score everyone. New England's defense is getting all the media attention for sucking, but we are just as bad as them. We do get turnovers, but no quarterback in the league is scared to throw deep against us, as it's been proven all year long. [/QUOTE]
