STATS THAT MAKE YOU SAY """WOW""

[oregonpackfan]

Last year the Packers led the NFL in the MOST dropped passes.

As of a couple of weeks ago, the Packers led the NFL in the FEWEST dropped passes!

That is a huge turnaround and a factor in the Packers' success this year.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Packers have only given up 4 rushing TDs all season.

Last time they gave up less than 10 was in 2000.

[Carolina_Packer]

The other stat that I know is improved from last year is red zone efficiency. That was one complaint coming into this year. Does anyone know how much that has improved from last year to this year?

[Badgepack]

Comparing where this team was at last year at this time compared to right now.

[Green Bud Packer]

The Pack has a top 10 punter. wow

[Bossman641]

2007 Bears - 5-8 through 13
2006 Bears - 11-2 through 13

2007 Bears - 22.8 PPG allowed
2006 Bears - 15.9 PPG allowed

All the media coverage and love on Favre is even starting to make me sick, I can't imaging how it is for opposing fans.

I dont know man. Seems like most of the TDs have come on big plays. Not saying that is a prob but they have stalled a few times inside the redzone.

I'd never get sick of positive coverage on any Packers player.

I just hate that these twofaced bastards where talking all kinds of shit in the offseason and now Favre is what is getting people to read their crap. They can all get a kick in the ass off the edge of a cliff.

Packers Offense

3rd in Yardage
2nd in Passing
23rd in Rushing
3rd in Yards Per Play
4th in Scoring
9th in Turnover Ratio at +6
10th in 3rd Down Efficiency
10th in TOP

AVG - 8th Ranked Offense


Packers Defense

9th in Yardage
15th in Passing
12th in Rushing
11th in Opposing QB Rating
9th in Sacks
1st in 3rd Down Efficiency
7th in TOP

AVG - 9th Ranked Defense

According to Pro Football Weekly, here is the difference in our red zone efficiency from last year to this year.

2006 Offense
Rank Poss TD FG Scor Pct TD Pct
31. 49 16 18 .694 .327

2006 Defense
Rank Poss TD FG Scor Pct TD Pct
16. 45 23 15 .844 .511

2007 Offense (through Week 14)
Rank Poss TD FG Scor Pct TD Pct
10. 41 23 15 .927 .561

2007 Defense (through Week 14)
Rank Poss TD FG Scor Pct TD Pct
18. 34 18 10 .824 .529

Wow, a huge jump for the offense and a slight regression for the defense, although last year's defense prior to week 14 was prone to big plays, which would not figure into this stat. If the defense was looking for a point of motivation in the last few weeks, it could be to surpass last year's ranking for red zone efficiency on defense.

Sure you can. How sick are you of Patriots coverage?

WOW!!

[woodbuck27]

What a super thread.

Thanks B.

That Statistic that makes me go WOW is anything related to Randy Moss and the outstandind play fr. him in New England. He's again a human highlight reel.

He makes Brady look good as does Wes Welker and arn't these different WR's physically.

Welker is the Mutt and Moss the Jeff.

The stat that makes me go WOW the most though is the one that sounds like Packers are 11-2 to date in the NFL.

That's just nuts !!!

WOW NUTS !!!!

What a great start to a great script for a great NFL Football movie on the Packers and the Legendary Brett Favre going all the way to the Super Bowl ans all the while the Packers GM just scratch's his head.

When asked by a Wisconsin Sports reporter the following question:

How on earth did your team do this Ted ?

Packers GM Ted Thompson responded after clearing his throat (a lot ):

'' Well ahhh,errrr ahhh hemmmm I'm not really sure. . . but it's sure messing up my draft position. . . and

besides I'm not at liberty to divulge any of the inside stuff ya know ''.

Translation.

Ole Ted doesn't have a clue. Either that or he's got hoseshoes up his tight arse.

PACKERS FOREVER!
