GREEN BAY, Wis. -- No one in the NFL had a more potent offense last season than the Green Bay Packers, and no one in the league retained more of its firepower, either.
That should bode well for the 2015 season.
According to ESPN Stats & Information, the Packers retained 95 percent of their offensive snaps played last season, when they led the NFL in scoring at 30.4 points per game.
Only four other teams topped the 90 percent retention rate on offense. They were: the Pittsburgh Steelers (94 percent), Carolina Panthers (92 percent), Cincinnati Bengals (91 percent) and Washington Redskins (91 percent).
By re-signing key free agents like receiver Randall Cobb and right tackle Bryan Bulaga, the Packers ensured that all of their losses on offense were players well down the depth chart.
