You would think somebody from this message board would be able to walk in and replace Both McCarthy and Capers and turn out a perfect season.

All the talent experts here that the NFL has just missed. Truth is, none of us really know what we are talking about. We like to act like we know what a players responsibility was on any particular play, but we are just guessing.

First off - you don't know everyone's history on here. For all you know there could be members of this board with SB rings. Who are you to call out the whole board?

Second - many of us DO know what we are talking about. Just because MM didn't give us every playcall from the game doesn't mean we are all clueless. It doesn't take an NFL head coach to figure most assignments out.

Most importantly - this is a discussion forum correct? I don't think I need to elaborate on this one.

I would venture to guess Ed Reed added to our roster would make a positive impact in our secondary. He is a Pro's pro. While older at 35, I think he would still provide us better coverage than either of McMillian or Jennings. Last year Reed had 4 INTs and 15 PDs (McMillian had 1 and 5, Jennings 1 and 2) in helping BAL win the Super Bowl. I believe he would welcome the change in scenery from HOU to GB (for whatever reason, HOU did not seem a good fit), and that this team would be glad to have him. The Packers could provide one last legitimate shot at another SB ring for Reed, and Reed added to our secondary might be able to help them get there. To me, this would be a welcome signing.

Figure, if Rodgers can come back in 4 weeks, and we steal a couple of wins while he is out, we could be poised for a good run. Adding Reed now might be a real shot in the arm for this defense. One of the best pure Safeties ever to play the game. A lot of good stuff could rub off on this defense, and some of our younger players. I bet Tramon Williams would love it.

As doubtful as I am about it becoming a reality, I would love to see GB sign Ed Reed.

Jets are already showing interest… C'mon Ted, steal him away!

Let's put it this way, if we were to release 2 Safeties and add 2 more, I'd be very happy with Reed and Richardson vs. McMillian and Jennings. Those two have played that poorly through 9 games this season, and all of last season. That's 27 games of really poor play by both players. What do we really have to lose? We've got everything to gain by upgrading the play opposite Burnett.

The guy cleared waivers. I really think he is done. What little I saw of him in Houston was not impressive at all.

What looks really bad for Capers is how destroyed the defense got week 1 against a QB that's shown throughout the rest of the season that he struggles mightily if he has to make more than 1 read. Absolutely shredded by a passing offense that has been more or less shut down in every single other team all while the D was mostly healthy. It wasn't just guys getting beat either it was just wide open holes in the D. That game he was completely and absolutely out coached. As has been the case IMO more often than not.

Stuff like that added to 3 absolute embarrassments (all-time bad type) in playoff games just keeps me from buying all of the excuses for the guy. At some point the responsibility is on Dom.

It was too soon to anoint the kid as great. He had a great performance because Boldin (again) tore up the Packers secondary and it opened up things for other players to be open.

That being said, Capers defense with the Packers always seems to have the middle inside of the field open for the taking.
