As someone else already said, it's amazing how the Packers didn't know what to do, yet everyone else knew what was coming. I hate to knock on a guy while he's down, but we really did need a defensive coordinator change and I'm excited to hear Tramon speak encouragingly about Mike Pettine. (not that he'd knock him, lol)

Add cornerback Tramon Williams to the list of players that have been critical of former Green Bay Packers' defensive coordinator Dom Capers. Williams said what we pretty much all knew. Capers' system was outdated.

I think that pretty well sums it up.it was obvious that the old D wasn’t working anymore.
Just another reason to be excited about the coming season.

As I already stated in my reply to this article from the link supplied in the "Magic Mike" thread. I restate.

Coach McCarthy and Mark Murphy both knew that the Packers needed change. Today there is a new OC, DC, and GM. Impact players have been added and dropped too. In addition, per Coach McCarthy, a complete review/rewrite of the Packer Playbook has and is taking place.

All too often some think playbook, and only offensive plays come to mind. The Playbook contains all of the Offensive, Defensive, and Special Teams plays. What this says is that Packers began making serious changes months ago.

I agree and support where BG and the HC are leading the Packers in 2018. ThumpUp

The following quote from Matthew Stafford following the Monday Night game last year is the most damning piece of evidence against Dom Capers and further reinforces what Tramon said:


“We had some success because we knew what blitz’s or which blitz’s would be coming, especially on third down. The screen that almost went for the touchdown, we went to the line with 3 plays. If they were doing a middle blitz, which they did, we ran the screen. If they ran a slot blitz, we were running a bubble, if they weren’t running any, we had another play in mind. When they blitz the middle, they’ll drop one of their safeties close to the line, typically Dix because in dime or Nickel Burnett is usually up already anyway, for middle protection. If they brought their slot guy, they would slide Martinez over to cover for his blitz. So when Dix slid down, and both Perry & Matthew slid into an inside gap, we knew exactly what blitz was coming. That happened on almost all our 3rd down plays tonight.”



Yeah Ted Thompson drafted some duds on D (though surely Dom had some input on those drafted) but when your defense can't get off the field because the offense knows what's coming inside and out it's not going to end well.

Now with a new DC, and the addition of Wilkerson and Williams the renovation has begun. Also, drafting 2 CBs and a fast ILB screams that players like (CBs) Gunther and Randall will no longer be tolerated. Go to U-Tube and watch the 2016 Playoff game between GB and Dallas. GB got burned as Dallas focused on WR matching against Gunther and Randall.
