...we'll be the 2nd team in 3 years to win the Super Bowl with a high powered O and a mediocre D that relies on takeaways instead of stops.

If you are worried about the D you might not want to check this out.

This is kind of cool... Until you enter in Defensive rankings as the formula in the playoff predictor.

I know he appears pretty good but I just didnt see it the past X games. Heck I was more impressed by peprah's play and for the past few years peprah has only appeared average to below average IMO.

The '09 Saints were 26th against the pass and 21st against the rush and in PA (what really matters), they were #20. But at all the right times, they forced turnovers led by your friend and mine, Darren Sharper. We all know Sharper isn't the greatest tackler (do we need to find that picture of Sharper as a Viking look like he's gonna crap in his pants while chasing my man DD as DD races into the end zone?)

Let's not forget Roman Harper's pick 6 in the SB against P Manning.

Play Devil's Advocate all you want. I'm not worried one bit. :-"

Now on to what really matters - take a guess which team is #1 in the NFL in Points Differential? We're also #2 in Takeaway/Giveaway ratio.

Sometimes you gotta wonder what is a more futile exercise - rooting for the Vikings or rooting against the Packers.

I did something quite interesting.

I took the worst 5 defensive performances by passing yards given up each week and totaled them.

Together they are 31-29. Essentially the same result you get from picking 5 random teams each week.

Then I took the 5 worst defensive performance by passer rating allowed for each week.

Added together they are 3-57. Basically, the bottom 5 won about 5% of the time.

The top 5 by passing yards won... you guessed it 50% of the time. Any guesses what the middle 5 average?

And the top 5 in D passer rating wins 95% of the time.

So, if Vikesrule wants to make pointed remarks by quoting stats that are no better than random chance, his points are going to be rather impotent.

In case you didn't know, the Packers have a top 10 D passer rating.

If you add offensive passer rating and calculate the differential, the correlation gets even stronger.

The Packers lead in that by a fairly wide margin.
I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.
