Would The Real Green Bay Packers Please Stand Up?

OK, Packer fans, what do we have?  There are two choices:

1 - A playoff team. with the BEST quarterback in football, a diversified offense that can run, or pass.  A young defense that is going to get better each & every game the rest of the season?

Or,

2 - A pretender.  A team that has been to the playoff the past 6 years, but is in decline?  A quarterback that is too worried to throw an interception, then to make courageous plays.  A young running back the is overweight.  An offensive line that is over-rated, and wide receivers that cannot get separation. A defense that continue to give up BIG chunks of yards and not playing as a team?

Answer is,..........  a little of each answer!

Look at the Drive Chart for the Packers offense

16 Drives (that is tooooo many)
4 - scores
2 - end of half & end of game
2 - turnovers - 1 fumble - Lacy & 1 interception - Rodgers missed open receiver for TD
8 - PUNTS - tooooo many!  And, 6 - 3 & outs - WAY to many!!!

Not a good offense!

And the Packer defense, look at the Panther Drives

15 Drives -
7 - scores (4 TD's & 3 FG's) &
1 - missed FG
1 - interception
6 - Punts - 6, 3 & outs! (That is good for the Packers)

Half way through the season, we have a 6 win - 2 loss team, tied for first in division.

Half way through the season we have an inconsistent team, that MUST be MORE consistent!
