They way the Packers normally execute the prevent defense doesn't use up much time.The way they executed it on the Bears two final scoring drives forced the Bears to use up 10 minutes of game time. Thats exactly what its intended to do. And quite litterally is the best way to win a game when the only way for them to come back is to score quickly.The Bears had two possessions the rest of the game after the Packers went prevent after going up 41-10 in the 3rd quarter despite GB only running 13 plays themselves the rest of the way.Really the only way they lose is if they give up big plays and turn the ball over so eliminating one of those possibilities is a smart ideaSimple math. If a team needs 4 possessions to tie and simply executing a prevent defense can limit them to 2 possessions its the easiest and safest way to win. That alone kinda disproves the "see no good reason for a prevent type D" comment.</blockquote>
