Statistical Perspective Green Bay Packers

Recommended Posts

Good Morning All,

In the NFL we tend to think about traditional powerhouse football teams as teams you worry about regardless of record. We should worry about the Colts because of Andrew Luck and their awesome offense, right? Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady are the best quarterbacks in the NFL right? Our Defense needs to show up on Sunday or Rodgers will destroy us, right? I wanted to post these statistics to show that Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers have similar stats to us, and surprising we have better stats in important categories. Observe.

It is amazing that Cam Newton has statistics similar to the great Aaron Rodgers. Carolina as a whole ranks higher in rushing yards a game. I think this game is a bad matchup for Green Bay. If Josh Norman covers his assignments, it will make the Packers rely on tight ends and slot receivers. If Thomas Davis and Luke can play their assignment in the dreaded 11 personnel sets, it will force Rodgers and Company to play the Flats or Wheel routes.

           So based on these Stats we average more points per game, and rush for more yards than the Packers. If our Defense plays like it has previously, this is a favorable matchup for Carolina. We can’t focus on the success of yesterday, this is the NFL right now. They play in our house, and we want payback from last year. Get pressure on Rodgers and keep him the pocket and we win. Period.

If that is 'points scored by the Defense', then the respective rankings don't make sense.

It's points allow by defense. (Opponent Scoring)

GB's at 18.6 points per game is better than CAR at 19.4.. Therefore the rank is correct.

Your offensive rank was a little off, so I took these screenshots just now:

Wow that Green Bay defensive yards giving up per game is high, they are ranked 23rd. Just need to score TD's and the rest will fall into place. My stats are from NFL and are probably sorted by a different category than the one you have.

Looks like they tighten up in the red zone.  Giving up all those yards, but limiting points, which is the stat that really matters.

I want to make sweet love to those stats and reproduce a good feeling about winning this game.

but I cant

I can. The field will not be in as bad of shape as it was Monday night. I think the pass rush returns, and we win by at least a touchdown.

We match up well against Green Bay IMO.

Green Bay has been beating finesse teams and offenses.

 

They have not played a tough physical team like us yet. We will punch them in the mouth and hurt them. I am not so sure they will have an answer for our physicality.

I absolutely agree. I think we are so physical we end up hurting ourselves with injuries.

    • 17% odds Better than the 0% chance that I figured we'd have at this point, but we're basically counting on the Bucs to poo the bed.
    • It will probably be head to head to determine the division winner since I believe we would have to win both to have a chance
    • So, Carolina (7-6) goes into a Bye Week while they sit on top of the NFCS with Tampa Bay (7-5). For those that don’t know here is how the tiebreaking procedures work for the Division: Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. Strength of victory in all games. Strength of schedule in all games Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed in all games. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed in all games. Best net points in common games. Best net points in all games. Best net touchdowns in all games. Coin toss The Panthers are currently 7-6 with a 2-1 record in the division and a 5-3 record in the NFC. The Bucs are currently 7-5 with a 2-0 record in the division and 5-3 record in the NFC. *Should the Panthers make it to Tiebreaker #5 they will almost certainly lose since this team enjoys winning in the final minute each week. Hopefully, they can avoid letting it go that far. Remaining Schedules: The Panthers round out their schedule with: ·       Bye Week ·       @ New Orleans (2-10) ·       VS Tampa Bay (7-5) ·       VS Seattle (9-3) ·       @ Tampa Bay (7-5) Tampa will round out their schedule with: ·       VS New Orleans (2-10) ·       VS Atlanta (4-8) ·       @ Carolina (7-6) ·       @ Miami (5-7) ·       VS Carolina (7-6) So to make this even more complicated, you need to cheer for the Saints this week and be prepared to hate them next week. Hopefully, them, the Falcons, or the Dolphins can give us a hand along the way. Conclusion: The easiest path forward is to beat New Orleans and sweep the Bucs. However, that would be too easy so we may need some help from our cousins in Georgia and Louisiana. Personally, I think Miami may give Tampa some problems since it looks like they are starting to turn their season around. But knowing us, we will find a way to lose to the Saints and somehow beat Seattle just to keep things interesting. There is 1 quarter of the football season left, and the way I have it figured that’s kind of how our playoff chances go over the next 4 games: By finishing: ·       1-3: (Eliminated, even if one wins against Tampa, it won’t matter) ·       2-2: (50% chance depending on who we beat, if Seattle/New Orleans- No. If Tampa both times, maybe if not likely, would still need some help from somebody on their schedule). ·       3-1: (Very likely if not certainly. Would mean sweeping the Bucs and either the Saints/Seahawks OR beating Saints/Seahawks with at least one win against the Bucs) ·       4-0: (Dust off your Sunday best and clip your nails, we are hosting a playoff game!) So get ready for meaningful football in December, because it’s here for the first time in a long while.
