Does promoting from within ever work after you fired the previous coordinator or coach? Anyhow, some say rayton has paid his dues, from The Citadel to Arena 2 to the Seinajoki (Finland) Crocodiles to the CFL and beyond.

This hiring doesn’t really mean anything to me because I don’t know the guy. I hope it works out though.

If nothing else, I hope he can get the kick return cover guys to stay in their own freakn lane instead of acting like a bunch of 8th graders and all run to where the returner used to be.
As has been said, I hope it works out for him and the Packers. We shall see.

But the Packers did it anyways and shut me the hell up, as they have has a lot less serious injuries (mostly) these last two years.

Of course, technically the pervious Coordinator wasn't fired, they just switched roles and now Mark Lovat is the STRENGTH & CONDITIONING ASSISTANT.

But they switched and seemed to fix the problem... of course they also switched the coaches and Edge Rushers which might of had a large role in it too... but still, it's got me to believe, it can sometimes work...

I'm going to go on the edge of being risky and assume the Coordinators coverage units said to stay in your lane in some shape or form. Why? Because that's what I hear from every coordinator. Now if the assistant couldn't coach that through, why would he be able to as Coordinator is my question.

I'm not exited over the news that the assistant is taking over. I'm also not sure I'd be excited anyone as Special Teams always gets the short end of the stick. They don't get the better athletes. They have to deal with injuries more than either Offense or Defense. And a lot of times special teams is viewed as a punishment, in a way.
