[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 893405, member: 12283"] Here's how the Packers' defense has performed this year against the average scoring output of their opponents. 1. Vikings: 34 points allowed; 26.2 avg; [COLOR=#ff0000]+7.8[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]2. Lions: 21 points allowed; 22.8 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#00b300]-1.8[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]3. Saints: 30 points allowed; 29.9 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]+.1[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]4. Falcons: 16 points allowed; 25.4 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#00b300]-9.4[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]5. Bucs: 38 points allowed; 29.9 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]+8.1[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]6. Texans: 20 points allowed; 22.5 avg;[/COLOR][COLOR=#00b300] -2.5[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]7. Vikings: 28 points allowed; 26.2 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]+1.8[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]8. 49ers: 17 points allowed; 23.5 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#00b300]-6.5[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]9. Jaguars: 20 points allowed; 19.6 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]+.4[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]10. Colts: 34 points allowed; 28.5 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]+5.5[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]11. Bears: 25 points allowed; 22.5 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]+2.5[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]12. Eagles: 16 points allowed; 21.6 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#00b300]-5.6[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]13. Lions: 24 points allowed; 22.8 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]+1.2[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]14. Panthers: 16 points allowed; 23.1 avg; [/COLOR][COLOR=#00b300]-7.1[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]15. Titans: 16. Bears: So in 14 games, there have been 8 times when the defense has allowed more than the opponent's average output, and 6 times when defense has allowed less than the opponent's average output. In the 8 games where the defense has underperformed the average, they've given up a total of 27.4 points beyond the opponents' scoring averages, or 3.4 points per contest. In the 6 game where the defense has overperformed the average, they've given up a total of 32.9 points less than the opponents' scoring averages, or 5.5 points per contest. On the whole, the defense is actually 5.5 points better than average on the season in this measure. But one thing you'll notice is that in the five games against strong offenses in this sample (NO, TB, IND, MIN x 2), the defense underperformed, sometimes by a hair and sometimes by a touchdown or more. So the pattern so far has been that Pettine's unit can't hold good scoring teams down below their normal output. With the Titans averaging 31.1 points per game, then if this trend holds up that means Green Bay would need to score 34+ to win. In the broader outlook, I think these results indicate that Pettine's defense is just mediocre. It isn't a disaster and is isn't giving the team any kind of advantage. The organization will need to assess whether that's an acceptable result, given the talent provided. [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
