Dom isn't the one selecting them.

It was a bad draft year, they thought he was the best CB option, and physically he might be the best... but they're haven't troubles with the mental part of it with him.

Dom's not smart enough to win a chess game, he wants to be able to shift guys around without changing personell groupings. That's how you get all these 4-3 DEs playing 3-4 OLB too.

The smaller was just how writers tried to explain that they weren't interesting in those 340+, out of shape, power linemen

Dom has been winning the chest matches this year... and he usually is able to when he has the guys, he just hasn't had the guys most years or two big holes, which you can't cover up both.

They travel to Dallas next week and one team will win and the other will lose It won't be the end of the world for either team. Both teams will probably meet again in the playoffs when it actually matters.

I believe Daniels, House, Perry and more (Brice?) were all out this last game... and last year... Gunter was CLEARLY the best CB due to injuries.

I agree. The playoffs are what matters most. How has the Packers defense performed overall the past several years in the playoffs? With the exception of 1-2 games, they have been consistently horrible, and more than a few times, embarrassingly bad.

dfosterf (11h) : So eeri
Mucky Tundra (15h) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?
beast (16h) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.
beast (16h) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.
Mucky Tundra (16h) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired
beast (19h) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was
TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL
Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : I think this games over

beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)
beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab
Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not
Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.
dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
