[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 574622, member: 10086"] I'm gonna preface this is 90% opinion and gut. So you can take or shove it. (just kiddin) Our D had been "suspect" for years now. While at the Jets home opener, I saw our season flash before my eyes that 1st qtr.(I am not confused when I say I wasn't alone) In hindsight it was way too early to be mAking season long predictions, but I saw 8-8 at the end of that quarter. I'm cautiously optimistic. But Optimistic never the less. Here's why; Our Offense is playoff Caliber and we don't need a top 5 defense like we possessed in '96 to win a Championship. We do need to hover around top 12 or better and that mark is attainable. (I forecast a modest top 18 rushing D with a top 8 passing D) I try my best to take off my rose colored sunglasses when making judgement (but we all get caught up wishing our team a W, it's part of fan-hood) I do see similarities to our bend don't break 2010 D which gave up like 20pts/GM if I recall? Take a look at the yardage we allowed, but then the points over the last 10 qtrs or so. In 2010, Our D traded passing yards for TO ratio and challenged teams to hang with our QB which was a chore and a half for them. And our QB? The man, the mythe. the legend who I believe could carry a 12th ranked D right into the big game and then anything goes. So yeah. Were right on target in my estimation. We don't need Seattles D numbers. R-E-L-A-X fellow packer backers. Were in the mix. Apologized for being winded... This game, although just Miami, is going to determine more than we think about where we stand [/QUOTE]
