[QUOTE="PackAttack12, post: 837458, member: 11933"] My only assertion from the get go was that the defense was much better last year than many are willing to acknowledge. What you see from an up and coming defense, especially one with a new defensive coordinator installing a completely new scheme, is flashes. Nothing is going to be perfect. You aren't going to get four quarters of defensive excellence starting in week 1. Your comparison of the Packers/Rams game to the Patriots/Rams game is silliness and you know it. Belichick is only the greatest defensive mind in the history of the league and had two weeks to prepare. Goff wet the bed too. You know this. Who else in the league did that to the Rams? Please enlighten me. Don't act as if 30 other teams in the league had them figured out. The Rams scored 30+ in 12 of their 16 regular season games. The three teams other than the Packers that held them below 30 are Chicago, Philly, and Denver...all of which finished in the top half of the league in points allowed. Oh and the only other team besides the Patriots to hold the Rams to single digits? Chicago, who happened to finish as the #1 defense in the NFL...lol. The Packers allowed 8 points in the first half to the [U]best offensive team in the NFL[/U]. Forced 5 consecutive punts to start the game while the Packers offense couldn't impose its will against a below average Rams defense. Additionally, the Packers defense started off the 2nd half with a quick three and out. At that point in the game, the Rams had only scored 8 points and somehow the Packers offense couldn't do more to support the defense. You like 3rd down stats? The Packers were 2-9 on third down. Yet somehow ALL of the time of possession issues were solely on the defense. :roflmao: I don't care if you acknowledge this or not, but the Packers defense absolutely played well enough against the #1 offense in the NFL to win that game.
