"There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson
Is there though? Where exactly is this talent you speak of? Now maybe the complexity and nuance of the system don't fit the kind of players we keep drafting. And that's an entire separate issue, maddening in its own right.Originally Posted by HarveyWallbangers
But this defense is simply not talented. As a DC how do you implement an effective defense with a front 7 that doesn't get pressure, and DBS that rarely win individual matchups. Slow, timid, flat footed, soft players all over the field. Us Anti-Teds were right, and we've been saying it for years. This team has been competive and a contender almost exclusively because they have the greatest qb of all time who pulls miracles out of his ass and makes plays and throws no one else can.
I feel confident saying that if you removed every starting qb from every team and evaluated each roster, the Packers would be bottom 3 or 4 talent wise.
