The 2 win Jaguars have twice as many sacks as the 10 win Packers.

Yeah I agree about the shields thing. It looks like he shouldn't of played after not practicing all week. He needs to stop relying on his speed and get back to his fundamentals.

As long as we get a W and not a L.

Should we say that AZ's defense is over too? I mean they managed to let Julio do the same and loss to top it off. We won.

Im not trying to be mean here but u really gotta know what kind of D we were playing in the 2nd half to understand why ATL came back. We played soft zone coverage D. A competent QB like Ryan and a great WR like Julio can expose that real quick and they did. We sacrifice yards and some scoring for time off the clock to win. This defense is not as bad as some of u are saying. U really gotta understand the type of coverage they were playing..


1st half - aggressive man coverage with little zone coverage

2nd half - soft zone coverage mixed with prevent D

I wouldn't be so concerned if they played the coverage a little lighter - but they nearly handed the game away on a silver platter. Just because you have a big lead doesn't mean it is ok to give up easy points.

They played almost the entire 4th qtr with Brad Jones as the sole MLBer. We didn't try to do anything fancy.

Though Dom did make a nice move of putting House on Jones on the outside, of our CB he is the best option for being able to go up and play the ball in the air against taller WR.

Something didn't seem right about Shields either. I don't think he was fully back from the concussion, or else the amount of running and bouncing around during the game took a toll on him and aggravated his condition.

Julio Jones is twice as tall and twice as heavy as Shields. It's not a favorable matchup from a physical standpoint, that's why they put House on him later.

House doesn't have the speed or cover ability of Shields, but he can bump a guy like Jones at the line and match up with him better when the ball is in the air.

Well, Julio Jones is one of the best wrs in the game. Matt Ryan is no slouch and Mike Smith is not a bad coach. They made adjustments.

Remember those comments I said about the Packers Defense vs average to good QB's?

It's amazing that this is the same Defense that faced the Patriots and the Eagles.

Musccy,

This is not the best Defense in the league. It is the #18 scoring defense. It is the Defense of a team that has gone 9-1 in their last 10 games. It is the same D that held the Patriots below their, at the time, league leading scoring offense just last week. It is what it is. Average, but supplemented by a tremendous offense.

But before we discuss any more of it's flaws, lets discuss the perfect teams in the league. Let's start with, um, well, the Patriots? Wait, we just beat them. So the, uh, Seahawks. Wait, they've lost more games than the Pack and have no receiving threat. Well, crud. Is there no perfect team?

This has the making of a special season. One that might end in not making the playoffs. Or maybe a first rd exit. Or possibly even a Super Bowl title. Does everyone really want to spend the season complaining about things we don't understand or control? Life is short. Enjoy the trip. Don't focus on the potholes.

The offense in the first half was outstanding.
Jordy fantastic.
Aaron is the MVP and going into the HoF at this rate.

Ok it's done. now what?

It is not unusual or wrong or even disrespectful for fans to talk about the areas of the team that they would like to see improve. As you point out there are no perfect teams so they is always going to be room to discuss the things we have concern over. No one will ever change that.

I don't want you to stop saying what you say because it would be a pretty boring world if we agreed on every thing all the time.

Defense is giving up .4 yards per play more than in 2010
Offense is gaining .6 yards per play more than in 2010

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
