How Bad Is The Packers Red-Zone Defense? They're 32nd In The NFL And Allow 100% Of RZ Drives Turn Into A Score.

Well...

 

[CatAttack]

So your saying if we get in the red zone we have a chance?

[JARROD]

Somewhere the first game with the Saints it was said they had the leagues worst run defense,...

Seems like a streak the panthers will end.

Their biggest weakness is their pass defense and that's our biggest weakness on  offense. They have a poo OL so if we can blitz Rodgers we should sack him fairly easily.

Ya know unless Rivera sucks like he normally does and has the CBs play 15 yards back to allow Rodgers to easily pass it to a WR who doesn't have a defender within 15 yards of him. Which he will do and easily convert since his WRs aren't trash WRs and Rodgers is one of the best.

You have to be up on the WRs and blitz him until he taps out.

[Khaki Lackey]

Shula will definitely help them fix that stat.

The saints were a pathetic defense when they came to Charlotte with an 0-2 start. I don't take stats seriously

Yeah!

I think we put up 35-40 points on this D the way our offense is starting to click (meaning Cam has gone ape poo awesome down the stretch). I know some of you are arguing that we weren't really that good last week except for a few big plays, but the vikes are a damned good Defensive unit, so I call BS to that argument. Granted, if Rodgers is anywhere near 100%, he'll get his, but I think we outscore them because our D is better, plain and simple.

Cams passing stats and our downfield passing game have been bad for 95 percent of the whole season. Im wondering what will happen when we have a game when the run game gets shut down 

[Cyberjag]

One step at a time.  We have to get to the red zone before this means anything.

People like to poo on shula but we put up 30 on a Vikings Defense that feels a bad day is 17 points. This is probably the easiest defense we have faced since the Dolphins. If our defense can get to Rodgers and our offense keeps the gas on we should win this.

turnovers and 2 huge run plays were big into contributing to that total. Its not like we methodically drove down the field for every TD.  You generally win when you win the turnover battle whatever the other circumstances of the game might be, and Vikings made it easier by dropping of multiple TDs or big downfield passes

Answer is somewhere in the middle. We certainly didn't blow them out by any means. Even with all those turnovers and huge gashing runs game was still tied late in the 4th. It was far from a masterpiece from Rivera and Shula who were sitting on a less than 2 score lead for alot of the game
