The passer rating differential is the best indicator with points allowed being second and yards is something that should never be mentioned in the same context lol

But it sure would be nice not to watch mediocre teams march the field on us.

As GB prepares to play Pittsburgh, I will be looking to see improvement with the Packers Defense. Stopping the outside run was a noticeable problem vs the Patriots. Pittsburgh is a good running team and will prove to be a good test.

YES! Plus this is their third pre-season game, so this should be a real football game for the first half.

Yes, but I'm afraid that too many of his forum's posters can't focus on the top problem for the Packers, the defense.

It's all too easy to parade and praise the Packer offense, as they will again be a mighty force for teams to deal with. However , sidestepping a problem has never been the best way to deal with it. The Packer Defense needs the most attention, from the d-line to the LB's to the secondary. Pittsburgh will show us clearly where the weak points are.

We need two GM's. Leave Ted Thompson alone and let him choose offense and add another GM who knows how to draft defense. That will solve our problems. We once had two punters why not 2 GM's? 🤣

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

If one must find blame for the poor Packer defense performance, then blame the coaches and the trainers and the scouts and the waterboys. Leave the old gentleman GM alone, for he is after all, always correct.

In fairness, both Perry and Jones have been injured.
