So far it's just the NFP reporting it. No official announcement. I hope their source is reliable, but will wait to hear it from the Packers themselves.

This rumor has started to spread into the media, so I expect to hear something either way by the Team tomorrow.

Fired....

No.

I like to think of it as a career adjustment.

Look. he has been very successful, all coaches that make it to the NFL have what it takes to make it work..

Perhaps his philosophy was just not the right fit for this team, but will be a remarkable philosophy to another team.

This is a good thing, It is a good move, I like it, I like it a lot.

However, I am not going to celebrate. I do not feel right about doing that.

Be well, do well, and good luck coach.

Thanks for the commitment and effort.

I've heard he already got hired.

His new position requires him to ask........"Would you like fries with that?" :thumbleft:

LOL cheesey....He wasn't quite that bad! IMO i dont agree with the move. Look at our defense last year...The decline of KGB, the fact that we had no more Williams on the D line...and for the most part..the Line backers sucked this year. I dont see how fireing Sanders can help that. Of course..i would have liked to have seen more blitzing from him..But still...A coach can only do so much with what he has.

I would bank on this site 100%

The web site is run by Andrew Brandt, the Packers' former VP of player finance, and Jack Bechta, the agent of cornerback Al Harris.

One would think they would not put their reputation on the line..

I think it's a move that had to be done. I hope Bob Sanders lands a spot as a positional coach somewhere, but he wasn't getting it done as the defensive coordinator. I think Winston Moss is probably going to be hired as defensive coordinator now.

You can count on it being official, and that Andrew Brandt probably heard it first.

He's still got deep connections with the Packers.

The most interesting tidbit is that none of the players were informed; the source certainly wasn't Al Harris' agent.
