Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 6794" data-source="post: 728438">I definitely agree that the defense is mostly to blame for the Packers coming up short over the past six seasons. The unit has most likely struggled because of a lack of talent though.While many fans might think that a good offense tremendously helps out a defense there aren't any numbers to back up that sentiment. Taking a look at last season only two top 10 scoring offenses featured an elite defense (Patriots and Cowboys). On the other hand six of those teams had a defense that finished 20th or worse in points allowed.I guess you're mostly talking about the 2014 NFCCG. Taking a look at how the entire team performed that day it was the right decision trying to milk the clock and rely on the defense to get another stop.The loss at Atlanta last season was nearly entirely to blame on a lack of talent on the defensive side of the ball, especially at cornerback. I have no idea why anyone would blame the coaching staff in that case.</blockquote>
