One step at a time.

This is a good thread. I like the read.

However, everything is about one step at a time... Let's see.

The team had serious challenges on the O Line.. Fixed for now. One Step.

Aaron was not feeling the pressure and hanging on to the ball to long. Fixed. That is another step.

The Defence was not buying into the new scheme.. Kampy was unhappy some say. Fixed. The Packers are the #! rated D in the NFL The players have bought into the plan. Fixed. That is another step.

One step at a time Gentlemen.

It is all coming together

The team lost two in a row and one of those losses was to a lowly T.B. Team. Fixed. Packers on a FOUR GAME WINNING STREAK.

Sunday... Special Teams will come togetther. Fixed.

It is all about One Step At A Time.

I love where this team is going, and more important.. How they are getting there.

This is going to be a very special year. A Very Special Year.

The only problem I have with one step at a time is that it assumes that everyone on the coaching staff is only focusing on that one thing then moving on to the next once it's fixed. Each coach is responsible for one particular part of the team. They should be working on problems simultaneously.

Maybe special teams is harder to teach because of the chaos on the field when they are out there? I mean..... for the most part on kick offs and kick off returns there is controlled chaos on the field for the few seconds they play.

This is how i see it. The guys are getting downfield too quick, and thats fine when you actually get to the returner. But when you don't, he has the whole field to run wild.
I think they should be more disciplined in keeping the guy in front of them, making sure to be able to cut him off. They might get to the 30 that way, but you won't get killed with these long returns we have been seeing for years now.
And I agree with DGB.
Each coach has a part of the team that is HIS responsibility. By week 12, they should have figured out why his guys are getting gashed all the time.
It should have been "fixed" by now. And if you don't have the guys out on the field that can do the job, put someone else in.
JMHO

Yeah but you could also say injures hurt STs and have made STers to step up to help the defense and take a smaller role on STs.

Brett Swain and Will Blackmon injures have really hurt STs...

Al Harris and Aaron Kampman made STers like Williams, B. Jones and Bush step up on defense and less time on STs...

The coaches thought Matthews was gonna help a lot of STs before he became a full time starter and Thompson has gotta banged up and injured as well.....
