The best predictor of winning is turnovers and Green Bay has outperformed us in that regard. Rodgers is perhaps the most accurate passer in the NFL. Brady has made some poor decisions recently and has a few picks to show for it
Outperformed? Their differential is +15. Pats is +11. Outperformed isn't the word I would use, they have been slightly better. Especially when +2 of that differential came against Sanchez. Guy has thrown 2 INT in 3 out of the 4 games he has played in. Pats have only given the ball away 1 more time than the Packers.
And when you say poor decisions you mean 3 poor decisions in 136 attempts? Well lets loook at the decisions that led to INTs
-Brady decides to go deep to Tyms and Vollmer's guy gets free and at the last second gets pressure on Brady.
Brady had already committed to throwing the ball. Are people calling it a bad decision if Vollmer blocks his guy? Nope.
-INT before HT
Yep. Bad decision by Brady.
-INT against Detroit.
Brady went to his #1 Red Zone target over the last 5 years who was held. If Gronk isn't held maybe he doesn't catch it but it probably isn't an INT.
As far as accuracy Brees, Romo, Rivers, Roethlisburger, Manning, and Cutler have statistically been more accurate than Rodgers this year. With the exception of Romo they've all thrown it more than Rodgers.
Over the last 4 games-
Rodgers has completed 66.2%
Brady has completed 70.7%
Pats defense has allowed 55% to Cutler, Manning, Luck, and Stafford
Packers defense has allowed 65% to Brees, Cutler, Sanchez, and Bridgewater
