the defense has played well at times , but , to think they are the 2nd best unit in the league is hysterical if you look deeply at their schedule and realize that cleveland , detroit , san fran , seattle , and chicago won't be on the slate . most likely the slate will include warner , brees and favre , maybe romo or mcnabb - do you see the defense doing it 3 weeks in a row againstthis caliber of competetion - i don't

Um, Marty, aside from the bizarro Raiders can you find me any team that plays better against good teams than they do against the bad ones? That is the way it works. The fact is, the Packers have done better against those bad teams than other defenses have. Against the Cowboys and Cardinals they completely shut down good offenses. They played well enough to win at Pittsburgh until the last play. The only team in the NFC that worries me in regards to the Packers are the Vikings who they clearly struggled with.
