Coming out of the bye week, Joe Barry and the Green Bay Packers defense made some fairly significant changes, and the results have been excellent.
As Daire Carragher of Packer Report laid out, the Packers’ usage of Cover-2 over the last three games went from 4% to nearly 18%. Green Bay’s usage of Cover-6 went from 7.7% to just over 28%. These drastic changes were in part out of necessity for an underperforming defense but also a product of who the Packers were playing.
