The Packers to the national media and the general public are a passing team with relatively no running game. This is assumed because of Grant's injury, obviously, but as all who watch the games understand is far from the truth.
Currently, the Packers are 15th in rushing, with Brandon Jackson coming in at 22nd in yards per carry at 4.3. That 4.3 mark is ahead of Frank Gore, Rashard Mendenhall, Chris Johnson, and Ray Rice. Of course, the opponents of these teams expect the run due to the ability these backs have. Regardless, the Packers can run the ball. Jackson himself is 12th amongst Packers all-time in yards per carry at 4.1 -- minimum 250 carries.
For the defense, the Packers are leading the NFL in sacks and interceptions. CM3 has been on a tear, as everyone knows, but the rest of the team has contributed as well. The Packers have 12 players with sacks this season. There are eight teams with just 12 sacks altogether, so it is obvious that this team has been able to get to the quarterbacks.
The interception total is surprising because the usual suspects, Nick Collins and Charles Woodson, are not intercepting passes as frequently as they have over the past few seasons. The picks are likely up due to the pass-rush being more potent, as many have landed in the hands of linebackers.
Just thought I would post some interesting tidbits about the Packers this season that many outsiders haven't realized. I imagine most of you have noticed these things before, but looking back on the numbers really gives a great perception of how well this team has been playing in certain aspects.
Rankings may be a tad flawed due to the Packers playing a game more than a majority of the teams, but they are still telling.
