Cory's Corner: Turn Up The Heat

I know there are a lot of people that don’t like it, but it will be over 50 degrees on Christmas this year.

Similarly, the Packers need to turn up the heat on opposing quarterbacks. Defensive coordinator Joe Barry continually plays scared. He is afraid of giving up the big play, so he doesn’t let his defense make the big play.

The Packers only have 123 quarterback pressures, which rank 13th in the league. The Packers have blitzed 150 times, which is 11th.

The thing that is missing from those numbers is that there is a ton of talent on the defensive side of the ball.
