if there are any math nerds out there with some spare time, I'd be interested to find out our opponents' collective W-L record last year, and compare it with this year... i bet the disparity is huge. huuuuuuge.

The collective record of Packers' opponents last season (counting each divisional opponent twice) was 120-126 (.469) compared to the Packers' record of 13-3 (.813), a disparity of -.344.
The collective record of Packers' opponents thus far this season is 108-88 (.551) [though it sinks to 116-108 (.517) if you toss in the two games yet to be played], compared to the Packers' current record of 5-9 (.357). This represents a disparity of +.194.
Interestingly, Green Bay has played three games against current division leaders (Minnesota and Tennessee) versus two games against division champions last year (San Diego and Dallas, though we also defeated the Superbowl-champion Giants).
