It's easy to say the Packers should have signed a someone, yet, not name any names whatsoever. That kind of comes off like you don't really understand how rosters are a wicked balancing act.
What has he done this season to help this team once guys started going down? Knile, the 4th string running back? He did absolutely nothing before the trade deadline with our secondary decimated. I am pretty sure most GMs with cap space would have the brain power to think "hey, our secondary sucks because we are injured beyond belief. I bet I could sign a couple of guys to help our historically bad defense."

The secondary isn't even the problem in this defense. We could have Deion Sanders and Darrell Green and the secondary would still get torched because the defensive front seven is not getting any push or pressure!
We all agree, football starts and ends at the line of scrimmage. Your OL is solid, you can run and pass more efficiently. Your DL stays disciplined and gets pressure, your secondary is rarely spoken about.
What the Packers have is a very undisciplined team and that is on the head coaches shoulders. Not the talent. Not the injuries. The head coach!
I don't know. I just don't understand how some can act so all knowing about adding players when it's so obvious we don't know hardly a damn thing, so why get so bent out of shape and looking silly pounding your chest as if you are somehow privy to any more details than the headlines you've read?
I suppose, that is why we are fans and as fans ... whining and complaining is our inherited privilege, lol.
