The Packers defense is bad and it’s a coaching problem. I’m sure you’re used to it. The team’s cumulative defensive pff grade is tied for third best in the league. Meanwhile, it ranks 21st in defensive DVOA, 16th in yards per play given up, 18th in EPA, and first in most times lining up 10 yards off the LOS on third and 7 (I made that one up). It’s obvious that the defense has talent, but it’s not being put to good use.
The Talent
Rashan Gary, De’Vondre Campbell, Preston Smith, Rasul Douglas, Kenny Clark, and Adrian Amos all grade out at top 20 at their position per PFF.
