[QUOTE="FrankRizzo, post: 419359, member: 2232"] The Packers have finished the regular season dead last in total defense. This is only the third time ever Green Bay has done so. The 1956 team ranked 12th of 12 teams. The 1983 team ranked 28th of 28 teams. And now the 2011 team ranks 32nd of 32 teams. The Packers surrendered 411.6 yards per game this season -- slightly worst than the New England Patriots (411.1). Of course, both teams are No. 1 seeds the postseason. Turnovers have helped both units. Green Bay set a team record with 31 interceptions. The Patriots had 23 picks. Opposing quarterbacks have feasted on the Packers most of this season, a problem that could catch up with them in the postseason. In the divisional round, Green Bay will face either [B]Eli Manning[/B] (4,933 yards, 29 touchdowns), [B]Matt Ryan[/B] (4,177, 29) or [B]Matthew Stafford[/B] (5,038, 41) [/QUOTE]
