Against the saints and jets sure, but Green Bay struggled in 3rd down. They were like 2-11 or something like that. We put 500 yards in green difference was red zone . Green Bay was perfect in the red zone while we struggled. And then the turnovers also.I really am stunned by the defensive stat. It seems we could get off the field on third downs in the Packers and Saints games for sure.
Our offense was basically unstoppable once we acquired Cooper. The defense outside of the New Orleans game jsut had to maintain the game from being blown wide open: they weren’t great. Ppl forget that every game we won, was never more than by a td outside of the Connor McGregor game. The defense did just enough to get us by.I just checked NFL.com and it's dead on.
How in the world did our defense play so well last year when you consider they didn't really generate turnovers, didn't get off the field on 3rd downs very well and didn't really sack the QB all that well either.
2018 might be a fluke.
