Can somebody please explain to me why this man still has a job? Yeah it sucks that we lost Cullen Jenkins and Barnett, but a DC worth his weight can come up with ways to overcome these losses.

First of all, Bigby is the wrong player for safety. Big hits are awesome to watch, but a good safety is always assignment sure, and Biby got toasted as bad as can be tonight.

But back to Sanders, does the man even know that blitzes are legal in the NFL. He just let the leading passer in the league stand back there all night for pitch and catch. I've had enough of this guy but I guess on the bright side he's not Bob Slowik.

Yea, I sick of our pass rush. It's been anemic the whole year and we've practically stopped blitzing. It's like, when we don't get a pass rush and give up big plays in the air, Sanders decides to pull people back and do a 3-man rush with eight in coverage. He's solving the wrong problem. Our coverage is fine, but they can't be expected to cover a receiver forever, eventually they'll get open.

I agree ... this guy shouldn't even had a job or even had a look at by any team in the nfl after 4th and 26.

Our defense is limited by the fact that it has exactly one legitimate pass rusher--Aaron Kampman. Can anybody name even one other player on this defense who is any kind of pass rushing threat?

Having said that, I still don't feel we are getting the most out of our talent on defense. We'll see how the season plays out, but you've got to think that when the season is over, Sanders' performance as DC will be scrutinized pretty closely, especially considering that aggressive, blitzing defensive styles have been a trend in the NFL lately.

I think I called for his firing after the Atlanta game. Now I'm just sick and tired of this philosophy.

I read a nice article on Winston Moss in the paper. I still believe he should be given complete control of the defense and Sanders should be demoted or let go.

Is this a joke? Ed Donatell was the DC that year. Since then we've had Slowik, Bates, and now Sanders.

Sanders also doesn't evolve during the game. He sticks to his gameplan the whole way and doesn't switch it up.

Ya I saw a peice on Moss in preseason and liked is fire. That may be what we need. I do remember though this is the best passing team in the NFL

dj nailed it.. Bob Sanders and group are unable to make in game adjustments that work.. if the team has success, we have a hard time shutting down the well right now.

Championship teams don't struggle with adjustments during the game.

To me.. that is his biggest liability as a DC.

Zero2Cool (20m) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (35m) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (37m) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (38m) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (38m) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (38m) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (42m) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (43m) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (43m) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
beast (44m) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs
Zero2Cool (45m) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
Zero2Cool (48m) : I literally just said it.
packerfanoutwest (51m) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
Zero2Cool (53m) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
Zero2Cool (54m) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
packerfanoutwest (1h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
Zero2Cool (1h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

Zero2Cool (3h) : We can say it. We don't play.
Mucky Tundra (4h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints
Mucky Tundra (4h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games
Mucky Tundra (4h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.
buckeyepackfan (5h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.
Mucky Tundra (14h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

bboystyle (14h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Or ties, but let's be real here
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)
Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.
beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs
packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.
beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating
Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!
