We pretty much all knew the Offense would suffer some earlier in the season, I think we just didn't expect it to last this long.
As far as increasing points per game over our last 6 contests? It's not inconceivable at raising the bar at all, I mean we're at 18.5 per which is near poor ranking. I don't think it's a stretch as long as #12 is slinging the ball (broken finger or not).
These are the Defense scoring rankings of the teams we have played thus far. More than half of our games have been against top #9 or better Defenses. I also included the Defenses we are about to play. Expecting The Packers to remain stagnant (less than 1.5 point increase etc) or decline in points per game to finish the season is probably more of a stretch than a 1.5+ increase in points per.
Oddly enough, we put up our most points against the Cowboys and Patriots. That in itself is reassuring
Group A Defense scoring rank (past contests)
Cowboys #1
Bucs #4
Bills #5
Patriots #7
Titans #8
Jets #9

Bears #27
Lions #31
Group B Defense scoring rank (upcoming contests)
Eagles #6
Rams #16
Vikings #20
Dolphins #21
Bears #27
Lions #31
I actually didn't realize the Packers have faced that many top defenses this season. Taking a look at the rest of the schedule it might be realistic they will put up better numbers after all over the last six games.
