Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 6794" data-source="post: 533532">Maybe you've got the impression that our defense was that good when Rodgers played but I think that doesn't reflect the truth.First of all the Packers defense allowed 22.6 points per game during those seven games, which would rank 14th in the league right now.But more importantly, take a look at the opponents the Packers faced over that span. They were able to hold three teams under 20 points, with Baltimore being the only accomplishment for me (sorry, but a Lions team without Megatron at Lambeau and a Brandon Weeden-led Browns squad aren't true measurements of a defense).On the other hand the team played two teams that will make the playoffs this season, both times giving up 34 points. At San Francisco they weren't able to protect a fourth-quarter lead and in Cincinnati we gave up a 16-point lead in the second half, although I agree the Franklin fumble that was returned for a TD was the deciding factor in this one.Add the 31 points the Viqueens were able to score against them and I don't think they ever were close to a top 10 defense this year.</blockquote>
