[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 895085, member: 12283"] Okay, here's something that's bizarre to me and I am wondering if anyone else feels the same way. The Packers led the league in both points per game and points per drive. And they only got 14 points all season from something other than offense. Their points per drive, 3.08, over the last TEN YEARS (and more, I'm sure-- I didn't go any further back) is 2nd only to the 2018 chiefs (3.12 ppd). They have literally, without any exaggeration whatsoever, been a historically effective and efficient offense. It is just plain factual to say that we just witnessed one of the best offenses in NFL history. And yet at least half of the analysis that I hear/read from 3rd parties (i.e. not Packer fans or Packer specific coverage) focuses on their occasional offensive lulls and that they don't often beat teams by 3+ scores. That's insane. As it turns out, scoring in the NFL is kind of hard! Other teams, believe it or not, try to stop you. So watching one of the best offenses of all time and coming away with the take of "should be better" is pretty stupid. It's as though someone watched the 1985 Bears play their full season and their main takeaway was "man-- they gave up a lot of points to Miami in week 13!" [/QUOTE]
