This is a pass-happy league. We've talked about this a million times. We have 3 QBs that might beat Marino's record. Your defense is going to give up points.
The Packers have a very good defense. They give up a ton of points. Great offenses pick up a defense when they have an off day. And our Defense has a lot more good days than they have bad. Cassel should be able to pick up at least a few of those for his defense. Secondly, how many bad defensive performances were in the second half after they were left on the field the entire first half because of poor QB play?
A good QB improves the defense. For one, he picks them up when they struggle. He keeps them largely off the field. And he forces them to become one-dimensional. You know why GB gets a lot of sacks and forces turnovers? Because opposing offenses HAVE to pass in order to keep up.
