Playing Defense Like It’s 2010

To me, this team is much more fun to watch than the 15-1 2011 team. Defense is putting it together. 😎

In 2006, Prince partied like it's 1999. In 2015, the Packers are playing defense like it's 2010. It's still very...

Vic is confused why no fans are complaining in his inbox today. I think it's because we have been starving to watch competent defense for once 🙂

I appreciate the competent defense, and of course, Winning is the ONLY thing, but for pure enjoyment, I'll take a nice 51-24 win anytime.

Just going from memory, I give more credit for 2010 to the Secondary, and more to the trenches so far this year. Its still early but I don't see this team getting 24INTs like we did in 2010 not to mention 2 of our INTs this year are from the front.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

To me the thing that stands out the most compared to 2010 is the "next man up" mentality this defense has been able to exhibit so far. Josh Boyd and Sam Barrington both on IR, and guys around them have stepped up and played just as well. You lose Tramon Williams and Davon House to free agency and insert two high rookie draft picks (Randall and Rollins) into the secondary, both getting significant playing time, and the secondary hardly skips a beat. The only drop off I've noticed is Hyde starting for Burnett due to his calf injury, but it's not been a glaring one compared to past years or other positions.

I still don't trust this defense until I get to see them against some elite QB's.

Who did we face thus far?

Week 1 - Jay Cutler ... Not so threatening
Week 2 - Russell Wilson ... As close as to an elite QB that we've face thus season in which I think his only good at his best.
Week 3 - Alex Smith ... Was anyone even worried?
Week 4 - Kaps ... Hasn't performed since they've knocked out of the playoffs couple of years back ... as CM3 said ... You're not Wilson lol!

Anyways I'll trust them if they could keep the Broncos & Panthers under 20 points. Don't get me wrong they are performing way better then I had expected but I've seen so many times that we've put up amazing defensive numbers again average or good QB's but come against an Elite QB or a QB that's on a hot streak with some play makers on the team they come out flat. I wish that we perform to this level at all times.
