They'd put up 60 points easy and I knew that before yesterday which is why I didn't want this team to come anywhere near the playoffs. But apparently that makes me a "Doom and Gloomer"

Funny how he's only around when we whip a weak sister, telling us how stupid we all are. I laughed my ass off when Hawk got pancaked by the Lion fullback.

At that point I knew it was make or break time. And for two weeks this defense was completely unable to make 3-5 plays a game when it ABSOLUTELY had to and I knew then and there after the Giants game the season was over. But somehow I knew they would blow the Eagle and Giants games. I wanted to be wrong. I really did want to see this defense show guts and heart and fight like there was no tomorrow.

im not one to badmouth my team, but i strongly believe capers has got to go, there isnt a reason i can think of to keep him around. this team had a win wrapped up against the vikes but couldnt stop them in ot, then there up 10-3 and feeling pretty good, then the roof caves in, im very tired of having a guy responsible week in and week out that gives up so many big plays , its truly sickening . the time has come even though he will last until the end of the season due to loyalty by management !!

In 2014?

Hell, he shouldn't be our DC this coming Sunday...

Fire his ass now. How many years of record setting for defensive futility must we put up with as fans?

We are making NFL history for all the wrong reasons because of Dom Capers, and Mike McCarthy's unwillingness to address the issue.

No, he should not return as Defensive Coordinator. Bottom in defense in yards and most importantly points. If Capers returns, Mike McCarthy will lose the team because it'll show no one is accountable and less than mediocrity is 'ok'. Sometimes, someone needs to lose a job to light a fire under the butts.

I am actually a big fan of the 3-4 defense though. Do you guys have a preference on that?

I think we can all agree that Capers needs to have his full compliment of playmakers to make this coaching effective. If we are expecting a get more out of less talent coach, then yes fire Capers. But I think he still has some value yet...

Well, for some reason he seems to prefer 4-3 hybrids, but he's got his guys back. It's been three friggin years.

But then I look at the New England Patriots and they run a hybrid and seem to be plugging in better talent. They are still getting gashed at times but...

oh hell this will keep going around in circles anyway. And I agree, Dom has had his chances and it is probably time for a switch yes. That being said, I would also challenge the personnel department for some better talent in future drafts 🙂

packerfanoutwest (1h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (1h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (1h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (4h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (4h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (4h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (4h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (4h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (4h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (4h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (4h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (5h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (5h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (5h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (6h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (6h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (6h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (6h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (6h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (7h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (7h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (7h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (7h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (7h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (7h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (8h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (9h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (9h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (10h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (10h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (10h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (10h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (10h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (10h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (10h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (10h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (10h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (10h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (10h) : 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 (10h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (10h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (10h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (10h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (10h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (11h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (11h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (11h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (11h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (11h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (11h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
