The three defenses that gave them trouble (the Colts notwithstanding) all featured zone blitz defenses. Pressure from the Eagles, Ravens, and Giants come from the front four, the LBs, and the DBs. It can be hard to read pre-snap. They are sophisticated defenses that originate from Jim Johnson/Marvin Lewis/Mike Nolan systems. Green Bay's defense, as good as it was at times this season, would have been exposed against the Pats. Kampman and KGB would have had to have played possessed to put up half the pressure the Giants did tonight. The Packers don't blitz particularly well and that seems to be a prerequisite for beating the Pats (since only one team beat them... and, well, they blitzed efficiently).I feel the Packers would have been moderately successful on offense... but I just don't see the Pack beating New England. It's all guessing and isn't worth a damn thing.</blockquote>
