I was tempted to label this Derrick Henry @ Packers but the Titans passing offense is really good too. They are a handful on that side of the ball.

Sounds like it probably will be snowing. Was just reading a Titans board and they sound just like us when talking about their D. Statistically they are worse than the Packers D which by some miracle is 8th in the league in yardage.

When you have a highly rated passing defense in a passing league, that will happen. Rush defense has been our Achilles heel, but that has been improving lately. I guess we will see if it has improved enough to stop Henry.

It's been snowing for a few hours in La Crosse but I would be just fine playing football out there right now. Unless it is coming down so hard it piles up and affects footing I don't see Rodgers having much problem tonight and our running game is pretty good too. Winds supposed to be around 13mph. Should be a great game to see just where we are at right now, more of a playoff seeding contest but both teams I am sure want this one.

Don't really see how it's a miracle, our pass defense is top 10 & rush defense gives up 110 yards a game against a league average of 117, so the perception of just how bad it has been is overblown somewhat.

 

We've also given up the 3rd/4th most yards per game in punt/kick returns & have the longest average time of possession per drive on offense in the NFL, which both also cut into how much yardage teams can rack up on our defense.

 

Yes, they will likely get gouged on the ground today, but the Titans average 160 yards a game rushing so they gouge everyone.

Yes, I meant miracle in that they are a top 10 defense statistically and that is definitely not the perception among most of us fans, including me. I knew they were middle of the pack and as you say have thought a lot of that is just the offense keeping them off the field. But was surprised to see them that high, I still don't trust them to get it done in the playoffs when we need them.

For being perfect on FGs this year, dude is sure missing a lot of XPs.

 

Is two a lot since the XPs got moved back?

 

I thought that was his 4th this season. It's at least 3.

 

Edit: Nope it's 4 this season. Not sure where you are getting 2 since they moved the XP back.

I miscounted. Still, my question remains because I genuinely want to know- what’s the average number of XPs missed by a kicker in a year since they moved it back?
