[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 579389, member: 5830"] Here are the relevant stats that I see related to the defense: 379.3 yards - 25th place - Total YPG 225.8 yards - 9th place - Passing YPG 153.5 yards - 32nd place - Rushing YPG 23.9 points - 19th place - Points Allowed PG 47.1% - 30th place - Opponents' 3rd Down Conversion Rate 15 takeaways - 7th place (tie) - Take Aways (we're 3rd overall when factoring giveaways with a +8) 18 sacks - 18th place - Sacks of opposing QBs What the statistics tell me is that we have good DBs that make interceptions, but most other aspects of our defense are at or near the bottom of the league. After playing the Bears, Vikings, Dolphins, and Panthers we were 9th in points allowed, but the Saints blew that door back open when they dropped 44 on us without having to punt. Our historical averages dating back to 1994 (about the start of the Favre legacy) are: 319 yards - Total YPG 210 yards - Passing YPG 109 yards - Rushing YPG 20 points - Allowed PG 36.4% - Opponents' 3rd Down Conversion Rate 30 takeways Over the same time span, here are our best stats: 259.8 yards - Total YPG - 1996 (13-3 record - SB win) 167.5 yards - Passing YPG - 2005 (4-12 record - coaches fired) 83.3 yards - Rushing YPG - 2009 (11-5 record - lost to AZ in 1st round) 13.1 points - Allowed PG - 1996 (13-3 record - SB win) 32.6 % - Opponents' 3rd Down - 2006 (8-8 record - 1st year under Capers) 45 takeaways - 2002 (12-4 record - lost to ATL in 1st round) Over the same time span, here are our worst stats: 411.6 yards - Total YPG - 2011 (15-1 record - lost to NYG in 1st round) 299.8 yards - Passing YPG - 2011 (15-1 record - lost to NYG in 1st round) 131.6 yards - Rushing YPG - 2008 (6-10 record - first year with Aaron Rodgers) 26.8 points - Allowed PG - 2013 (8-7-1 record - lost to SF in 1st round) 42.6 % - Opponents' 3rd Down - 2011 (15-1 record - lost to NYG in 1st round) 15 takeaways - 2004 (10-6 record - lost to Vikings in 1st round) [/QUOTE]
