Score Points.What do the Pack lead in?Points per game. Hold your horses before you start saying that the Saints are the no.1 offense to ever play the game. As for the other stats, lets say Yardage.Now, yes, Drew Brees has thrown for more yardage than Rodgers, reason being?He has had 96 more attempts at throwing the ball, 80 of which were completed. The real stat here to look at is yardage per attempt in which Rodgers is 9.4 yards and Brees is 8.0 yards. If you want to be hypothetical lets say Rodgers was given the amount of attempts that Brees has had then rodgers yardage looks like this. 5,104 yards, with 3 games to play. On the flip side, lets say Brees was given the same amount of attempts to throw the ball as Rodgers has had. 3504 yards with 3 games left. So the yardage stat all comes down to attempts, and if you give the ball to Rodgers the same amount of times as brees, then Rodgers will throw for more yardage.  Note also NO were playing against a rookie Jake Locker who managed to throw for nearly 300 yards against, didnt even play 4 quarters and was inches close to winning the game for the Titans</blockquote>
