[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 403984, member: 1429"] Yeah, they affect the QB rating so much because they're that important, and they don't even take into account defensive TDs, were the Packers also lead the league with 3. And, like you said, historically you can expect them to keep on coming, because of the talent we have in the secondary, and because of the way the defensive scheme is build on (the ultimate goal for Dom Capers is to stop the run and make the other team one-dimentional, and then to bring perceived pressure and to force QBs to throw into coverage (another reason why Matthews was moved from the blind side to the left, where he's accounted for by the QB). It's not that way for other teams, for the Bears the key thing is to not give up big plays and to be able to generate pressure and sacks with a 4 man front, the Jets prefer to play close coverage and force sacks...). This Packers D will never be great at tackling, it'll never be great at shutting down opponents, it's not how they operate. Don't get me wrong, they have to do a much better job on 3rd downs and particularly on communication. But they'll always be aggressive, going for the pick and for the fumble, and that leads to some big plays given. [/QUOTE]
