Dom Capers, full defensive staff expected to return to Packers

WOO HOO!

You have to admit, other than OT with the season on the line, they really stepped up. 🤣

They got lit up by a couple good QBs in the middle of the season, but they bounced back pretty decently.

Well, our D FINALLY started to play decent. So I can see why they are given another shot.
Now, if we can get our D AND our O to play at a high level (both would be nice, for a change) we can win it all.

It is mostly the players anyway. Just look at Denver. How many different teams has Wade Phillips been Defensive Coordinator for and how many times has he been fired? Did he all of a sudden remember how to coach with Denver this year or did he just have players that executed his defense.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I actually feel worse about this than I did the Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy contract extensions. I'm okay with Joe Whitt Jr. and Darren Perry back in the secondary but that's about it.

Dom, Trgo and the rest can go elsewhere. Honestly, this is severely depressing news.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

I don't have a problem with this.
I think they have done as well as can be expected considering the talent they have had to work with.
Particularly up the middle.
Without Capers scheming, things could have been a lot worse.

Dom's play-calling pisses me off when he goes prevent, but seriously this team has needed help up the middle for a long time. Our D was excellent when we won our last Super Bowl. Is the scheme so much worse now or is it we have the wrong guys? Did Collins help secure the middle better? I don't know as I'm a better offensive evaluator based on my football background. Is it just a problem with the hybrid picks? Dunno we do seem to find great DBs though who are hybrids.

Green Bay has been very fortunate over the years with good safeties, well, until now. Pretty mediocre since Collins got hurt - which is a big part of the problem.
