I'm a realist not a pessimist.

You have claimed to be a perfectionist in the past, which might be closer to the truth but perfectionist and realist are often different especially when talking about teams/groups/etc instead of just a single person.
With the rules favoring the offenses, most defenses can't stop everything and the Packers defense is about creating pressure on other teams passing game.
Coming into Sunday Packers are
~ 2nd in opponent QB rating
~ 2nd in passing TDs per game
~ 5th in passing yardage per game
~ 7th in passing percentage
~ 9th in overall points scored
This despite having horrible 6 quarters to start the season...
And yes of course you're going to the excuse of horrible opponent QB play, but they don't get to pick their opponent and doesn't change the fact that, coming into Sunday, 4 of the 5 QBs had their worst QB rating this season against the Packers and not in another game, against another team. Though it might help that they're in the same division as 3 of them... but the excuses are none stop on both sides.
This team might not be as good as some hype it, but it's not as horrible as other knock it either. As always the truth is somewhere in between...
