Or at least that's what it looks like, with the Denver Broncos DB Coach position < the GB Defensive Coordinator position.

Packers likely didn't wanna go down that route again so they moved on.

I'm guessing no one else wanted him for DC. So he's starting from a lower rung. 🤷

I get that people in Wisconsin wanted him to be the DC but I never saw it. I didn't want Barry either but there you have it. Not sure he would have been worse. Not convinced he would have been better.

Jeff Hafley, a single-high 4-3 defensive coordinator.

They keep repeating this, I'm interested to see if runs single high often in the NFL, as he's also talked about the importance of two deep shell.

Also... if he wants to run single high Safety, then the Packers need to get a true FS (or two).

PFF seems to suggest they believe the top 3 Safeties will be Franchised tagged, so I'd be looking at Safeties Xavier McKinney and Jordan Fuller.

Jordan Fuller would be an interesting one to look out for. Fuller went to Ohio State where he had Hafley as his defensive coordinator, and was drafted by the Rams, and LaFleur's Falcons drafted his brother Devin Fuller.

People forget we finished the year with the 10th best scoring defense. This quack we hired is supposed to be a great secondary guy, well folks last years team finished 9th is passing yards per game. And those folks are Facts and Facts don't care about your feelings lol. See what I did there NonStop lol

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

You are right. When HC goes through coordinators that's not a good sign. He elected to keep Pettine, then they didn't extend him. He offered it to Jim Leonhard who opted to stay with familiar organization instead. He settled for Joe Barry and let him go ateast one season too long. I'd say if the final 13 games don't show significant improvement over the first four. LaFleur might find himself on hot seat!!

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 (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!
