But otherwise, you have four games where the defense gets shredded in the first two frames and then locks it down a lot tighter after halftime-- the Minnesota game being the lone exception. So what's going on? Can Pettine not come up with an effective gameplan? Are teams just taking their foot off the gas? I don't really think it's the latter-- I don't know why the league would consider a lead safe when Aaron Rodgers is across from you. Bottom line-- Pettine and his personnel absolutely must find a way to limit teams in the first half.</blockquote>
