Is the Packers offense really that good? They have some big play potential because of Favre, but they really seem incosistent.
If the Packers' running game is coming on as evidenced by a newfound commitment as seen in recent weeks, then yes. They're certainly carrying the team a lot further than the defense, which has gotten a lot of the credit for the Pack's 7-1 start. They're ranked 2nd in the league in passing, and are only 9th in total offense because the running game is ranked dead last in the league. Defensively speaking, they're ranked 11th against the rush and 22nd against the pass, 14th overall. They're solid and good enough to win games and not lose because of them, but the secondary is starting to worry me at times, especially the depth at corner and the inexperience at the safety positions.
Now the Cowboys are ranked 5th against the run, and 13th against the pass, 6th overall in the league on defense, while ranked 9th rushing and 3rd passing (2nd overall to the Pats) on offense. To me, that says shootout, with a couple big plays on defense for both sides.
The Cowboys have a really really overated D. Beside playing the Giants and Pats, who both shit on them, they have played the Dolphins, Bears, Bills, Rams and Vikings, all terrible offensive teams.
