Green Bay Packers film review: What’s wrong with the pass defense?

The Green Bay Packers‘ 34-27 victory over the Detroit Lions put many cheesehead souls at ease. Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson were in 2014 form during the first half, connecting for two of Rodgers’ four total touchdowns. Eddie Lacy picked up 103 yards at an average of 6.1 yards per carry. And the league-leading run defense continued to suffocate rushing attempts, allowing Detroit just 50 yards on the ground.

The one cause of concern, however, was the pass coverage. Despite consistent pressure from Nick Perry and others, Matt Stafford moved the ball at ease in the second half, piling up 368 total passing yards.
