It's been an odd season statistically for the Packers in terms of points scored, points allowed, and overall record.
GB's lone game with less than 20 points scored was a 17-7 victory over Dallas, every other game has been 21+ points scored for the Packers.
GB is 10-0 when allowing less than 30 points, 0-5 when allowing 30 points or more. The key to playoff success for GB seems to be to avoid the shootout.
Only one other NFL team (the 12-3 Chargers) is also undefeated when allowing less than 30 points. And like GB, the Chargers are 0-3 when they've allowed 30+ points.
In fact, the Chargers are the team most similar to the Packers this season when it comes to scoring.
# Games with 20 or fewer points scored
Packers 1
Opponents 9
Chargers 1
Opponents 9
Both teams have failed to score 20 points once, and have held their opponent to 20 or fewer points 9 times.
21-29 points scored
Packers 8
Opponents 1
Chargers 8
Opponents 3
30+ points scored
Packers 6
Opponents 5
Chargers 6
Opponents 3
By this measure, the difference in record between GB and SD has been two fewer 30+ points allowed games by the Chargers.
